    Things I probably won't do with a Goldwing...

    But the guy's good. Especially the action at around 2:15. I should be at least half this good, but I'm not.

    A HONDA GOLDWING GOING THROUGH THE PACES DOING WHAT IT DO IN THE HARLEY DAVIDSON PARKING LOT IN SEATTLE JUST LETTING YOU SEE WHAT I SEE !


    and God said, "Let there be air compressors!"

      Way impressive. Along with the body positioning, check out how far he turns his head while looking into the turns.

      How cool would it be to see him school a bunch of squids on some twisty toads?

          Thanks for posting. I followed Hammerhead while he was on his "Wing" above Mt St Helens one time and was I impressed what could be done with one of those bikes. Now if my Father would just come through with the one he said he'd give me......

            Yeah, I remember seeing that thing in my mirror on the ride to Happy Camp and try as I did it wouldn't go away. Anybody hear from him lately?

              I wouldn't mind hearing more of that Goldwing. Certainly not standard pipes.

                  Pretty sure Steve does that all the time, although IIRC he has a 4, not a 6.

                    Wrong, and wrong, sir.

                    I don't ride quite that well, and it's definitely a 6.

                        There are several great sounding exhausts for that amazing motor. I love the sound-very 911.

                          Listen to the sound of Yellow Wolf's bike. You have to catch it between the episodes of grinding footpegs, but it illustrates your point.

                          By the way, these are STOCK GL1800 pipes.

                            I couldn't leave that motor with a stock exhaust. Too much aural joy to be had otherwise.
