Whats funny was my ex wife had a 62 year old insurance angent.I was 45 at the time.He had a Goldwing and I had a 99 ZRX-1100.It went around corners so good It took my best effort to keep up.He was looking at a FZ1000.I guess the rider really comes into play.

Any insurance agent that likes to ride fast has my business.

I rode with a guy on a Wing last weekend who rode exactly like that. Impressive to say the least. On the film, what bike was the cameraman riding? it sounded like a Valkyre or a Rocket but that thang was dragging like it had the ground clearance of a Harley bagger!

The Gold Wing is one hellava handling bike. I added a fork brace to mine to stabilize the front end and it handles better than any touring bike on the market. I have left all touring bikes, most of the sport tourers and quite a few sport bikes in my slipstream. IMHO, it's the best touring bike out there.
