Is it difficult to ride a Gold Wing?
Share to earn +200 points! The GoldWing platform can be intimidating at first from behind the handlebars, but it rides smaller than it looks. It’s very nimble for a 900-pound bike and is very spirited. It is also very much at home poking around the back roads of the country sides.

What kind of motor does a Gold Wing have?
Surely this was a fluke only possible with a Gold Wing’s giant 6-cylinder motor. So, I borrowed a little, twin-cylinder Harley- Davidson 883 and tried the experiment. The little Harley took off easily in first gear with no gas, no brakes and no sign of stalling.
Do you need slow speed control on a wing?
If you want better slow speed control, you need to know how slowly you can rev the engine and still be able to take off. I submit that for a Gold Wing, the Engine Launch Speed is the same as the idle speed. You can easily test this yourself on your next ride.
