Something I learned when going through the VW TDI fiasco: US passenger vehicle diesel emission standards are more strict than than they are in Europe. US passenger vehicle gasoline emission standards are less strict than they are in Europe.
I didn't read any of the articles but I would find it easy to believe the GL1800 meets US standards but not European standards.
Riding the upward spiral.
According to the magazine link below, the pictures originally came from someone on Twitter. In addition, there are flaws with those photos that indicate they are from someone's imagination.Originally Posted by Jimmytee

I used google's translattion tool, the second paragraph says "Impossible for the time to determine whether these photos seen on the Twitter account of the network of motorcycle taxis Gamos are real or whether it is montages like the web in raffole ... These images have the appearance of those of a press file, which prompts MNC to examine them more closely! It reveals a Goldwing seriously refreshed at the level of the look, which adopts as envisaged an electric windscreen and a multimedia console complete and modern."
So, back to the real news ... no new GoldWing for 2018.

OK ... someone needs to describe the bet, and the stakes.
The bet is:
New products being introduced by year end, vs. we live with the existing platform for another year.
The winner get the secret code to be able to post PICs on the forum. And a cupie doll.
That's a reasonable bet ... count me in on that one. However if I win, I want private pictures of your cupie doll !!!
