| Now that was one of the better reviews I have seen and heard on the Vision.
Exactly why I bought mine in the first place. |

Posts: 60 Denver | I am a little worried about how much the reviewer really knows... Goldwings have 6 cylinders not 4... at least since the 80's..

Posts: 8144 New Bohemia, VA | that might be a little relevant, but the riding stance has not changed much at all. My GL1200 had the riding boards out on the engine guards and the fairing hitting the inside of my calves would aggitate me. My Goldwing buddy at work has an 1800 and I sat on it after he bragged how much better the 1800 was over the 1200. It actually suited me less than the GL1200 as the fairing dug in even more on my calves. I guess it could be adjusted but I still didn't like feeling I was riding an elephant.

Posts: 460 Centennial, CO | This was a good video for the most part. Although, I must say the production was a bit lacking. But it certainly got the point across about how good this bike really is. As a videographer for many years, I can say that in most cases, this was not shot the way I would or many of the other photogs out there. But the fact remains...it was a good video and plays well to explain why we bought and ride this wonderful 'spaceship'!
I agree that some of the facts were a bit off, but the intent was to discuss how good the bike is. Hopefully nobody will flame the poor guy for not having is GW facts correct! |

Posts: 60 Denver | It wasn't a flame about the wing, just that if you are presenting facts... As for what he said about the Vision (I own both bikes) he was completely subjective. Yes it is was the owners of the Vision want to hear, but would it have made you want a Vision based on the video if you did not own one already? Just some thoughts I had when I watched the video. |
