The new goldwing is a st1300,f6b,and goldwing rolled into one.Except for the flat 6 in them instead of a 4 in the st 13.But it looks like the old sport tourer.90 lbs less is nice. The so called midsize bikes in the 800-1000 cc size was all the rage, still is.Surprisingly the 300 cc bikes are jap number 1 sellers.But now the indian and ducati have crept into the 1200 cc range.I know Yamaha is coming back out with a 862 pound aircooled v twin venture. And Hondas tour cruiser isnt changed from the 1300.Tuesday I GET MY FIRST 1300,O6 1300 r. The only thing I cant figure out is why bmw and others are making 160 hp streetbikes. My 99 venture has 98 at the crank,79 rear wheel.I can cruise 80 all day long.What would i do with 80 more horsepower.Or 200 hp turbo streetbikes.That some idiot will crash on a highway.Now is a good time to buy an $80,000 chopper for 15,000. I am 68, time to lighten up and downsize.
