In Praise of Older Wings

[Mike-C]

Gents;
I took my Wing out for a nice ride yesterday. And although I have been riding my ST1300 for most of the past two years I must admit the Wing is a nicer ride. The faster it goes, the smoother it gets. Not as sophisticated as the ST but a nicer ride. For long trips I would take the ST (more luggage space) but for day to day running around the old '84 has it.

Perfect!!

I can't remember if this GL1200 was your ride at the 2017 Ivy Lea NGW Club get-together, Mike .

Despite the fact I traded it for my Valkyrie, I genuinely believe my Standard 1200 was the best all-around bike I've owned. Not too big, not too small, plenty of power, smooth as a, well, Goldwing.

The 1200 does have an a lot to like. Must say it was the best of the naked wings all in all.

Cliff, yes it is, my one and only. I care for my sons' Wings too.
