#123467 Fire ResQ (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 351 Re:Pop Rivet and Javawave Got Me Thinking 3 Years, 8 Months ago   Don't get me started on insurance. I have NEVER had a claim on my auto insurance, and I've had insurance for over 10 years with this company. I pay about $1000/yr for my bike, about $1000/yr for my 1998 Saturn, about $1200 for my 2005 Montana van, and I am picking up a 2004 Dodge Ram tonight that will set me back another $1300/yr. Sorry for the rant! Back on tpoic, slyguy, you gotta get what motivates you. If a Wing does that, then I say go for it!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #123522 slyguy (User) What happens in the garage stays in the garage.

I rode with a guy on a wing and I was on my sport bike. Watching him kick up his floorboards and hit the corners as hard as he was had to be one of the coolest things I've seen a rider do.

Wait! Platinum Boarder Posts: 1280 Re:Pop Rivet and Javawave Got Me Thinking 3 Years, 8 Months ago   slyguy wrote: Both of these guys as you are aware got HD Ultra Classics recently. Not thinking of going that route, but going to the other side of the bagger spectrum. Got my eye on a low mileage (around 5K miles) 5 year old Gold Wing GL1800 that I'm considering. Lots of extras and the price is right. Most of the goodies I would do too. Whatcha think? Um, before you decide to fall into the "Wing-nut" catagory... Maybe you should read Musky's post about that... (click here)   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/09/24 20:28 By StarCruiser06.   Over 50...? Never miss the oppertunity to pee, never waste an erection...

I second.. or third, or fourth that. Whatever it is. Anyway, I ride with a fellow who has a Goldwing and its retarded how hard he can ride that thing.. kind of hilarious really, cause he rolls up to bike night with his 3/4 helmet, microphone, on his wing with LED accent lighting and such, looking like.. a highway pounder. But if you look close, there's evidence of a bike that is not unfamiliar to intense riding.. ground up floorboard, scratched/scraped skidpans... yep, had the opportunity to go for a ride in B.C. with him and I saw a Goldwing do things I never though possible for abike that size. So, as for advice.. as long as you ride it and enjoy it.. give her!
