Should I trade in my motorcycle? In this motovlog I talk about how there is nothing to trade my motorcycle in for, none of the bikes in today's motorcycle market appeal to me more than my Honda Goldwing. Am I stuck with my bike?

ABOUT ME:
My name is Mengy and this is my motovlog channel, Moto Mengy. I plan to upload a Goldwing motovlog every Sunday. I ride a 2018 Honda Goldwing DCT Tour but I rode Harley Davidson's for 25+ years before. I'm motovlogging with a GoPro Hero 8 Black mounted to a Bell Mag 9 open face helmet, no external mic! To me riding is wind therapy.
My goal for the channel is to motovlog Pennsylvania country roads while also motovlog exploring around America. I'll also talk about biker topics and such, probably test ride a few other motorcycles, and will definitely get lost and accidentally wind up on unpaved roads along the way.
Please SUBSCRIBE if you like my motovlog channel and LIKE any videos you enjoy! Thanks!!!

I bought a 2022 Honda Goldwing Tour DCT and traded it after a year for a 2023 Chieftain Darkhorse.Bringing the Chieftain home i noticed my teeth were rattling. Did 5 thousand miles on that bike over the summer of 2023 and it was a fabulous bike but After 6 months I was over it and Bought a new 2023 Goldwing in March of 24 which my wife says I will be keeping now. I just missed the Goldwing too much. Turns out I like the comfort and having kept the backrest skidplate and all the other stuff i had put on my 22 Goldwing I saved a ton not having to buy them all again. When you have a Goldwing it's difficult to find anything to trade Up with. And that little lesson cost me 18 grand.

🌿 WOULD A CHIEFTAIN KEEP UP WITH A GOLDWING ⁉️

@roadglide Месяц назад

@@David-yp4fl Off the line from a start, is one area a stock form motorcycle’s performance is evaluated. There are probably few, if any heavy touring motorcycles that would be as quick, off the line, as the new generation Gold Wing. So the question could an Indian Chieftain beat a Gold Wing. In my opinion, no. Once these two bikes got up and rolling after the initial start they both have their own performance characteristics. But from a dead stop to say, a 1/4 mile point, the Gold Wing wins. The Sport mode is a beast. The DCT is seamless and errorless in shifting quickly with no loss of time or power. Not sure about “roll-on”comparisons. Someone else could speak to that.

@ramishrambarran3998 Месяц назад

Glad to hear you American talk and comment on choice of bikes, how many are in your garage, how much you spend, how much you lose. I am 68 and ride a 2year old Indian market Yamaha FZ25. The astronomical cost of everything motorcycle is prohibitive in my country. Brake pads for the front and rear cost around US$135 ! When a bike is bought, it is kept for many, many years. But......enjoy it ! Trinidad & Tobago. West Indies.

@Donfleebie1 Месяц назад

I’ve been riding my 4 Harley Ultras for 34 years now. My present ride is a 2012 Ultra Limited Stage II. Since the Goldwing DCT came out I’ve been interested. I rode a 21 at Lake George Americade a couple of years ago. The 2024 Road Glide is the first Harley I’ve been interested in since 2012, but at the same price, after adding accessories, as the loaded Goldwing DCT, it’s still very much like my 12 FLHTK. Goldwing will probably be my next touring bike.

When I had my Gold Wing, I set the electric windshield once and never moved it again. I didn’t find it to be such a great feature that it’s a must-have going forward. If you’re considering the Pan Am, you really should ride a 1250 GSA, or a 1250 GS if you can find one. Power, handling, tech, and well proven. For this engine in a sport tourer, the 1250 RT is really something else. I would do it before the GSA/RT go to the 1300. You can’t ride an imaginary unicorn bike, so you may be on the Gold Wing for some time!

The RT might be the best all around motorcycle out there. I love my '21, it's incredible in every way. It's super comfortable and refined for long days of touring, but it really handles extremely well and the boxer twin is easy to open up and pull hard from turn to turn. The GSA is legendary, but I just can't get into big ADV bikes, I prefer lighter and smaller bikes off the pavement.

@HippoDrones Месяц назад

The downside to having a top of the range bike that is incredibly suited to your type of riding is that there will not be anything that would be a real upgrade.

@MotoDash1100 Месяц назад

ST1100 or ST1300 would be a decent side-grade or even upgrade (depends on your use case) to the Goldwing for the larger gas tank that the ST1100/ST1300 has AND the better fuel economy. So even more range besides just because of mlre gas.

@MotoMengy Месяц назад

It's a tough problem to have! 😁

@geeman1492 Месяц назад

I definitely agree. A sports tourer with Pan American engine would be a game changer for Harley. I’ve been saying that since Harley introduced the Rev Max. I ride a BMW RT arguably the best sport tourer in the world. I would definitely give Harley sport tourer a look. Enjoy your channel!

Interestingly, a Chinese/Thai manufacturer, Felo, *did* recently announce an electric touring (but not sport touring) motorcycle, the Tooz. So, there's *three* ways to get range: better batteries as you pointed out, but also *more* batteries, and more efficiency (which, for highway, means better aerodynamics). They appear to have crammed 35 kWh of batteries into a Gold Wing-style tourer. (They're claiming 450 miles range, but that's on a Chinese test cycle that notoriously overestimates EV range. For cars, it's usually around a 35% overestimate of range, which would be about 333 miles, but due to motorcycle aerodynamics being what they are, I'd expect worse yet... but it still might exceed your 250 mile target. (I've honestly been thinking for a while that a tourer - ideally Gold Wing style, but with more American cruiser ergonomics to get the rider's head a bit lower reducing frontal area - would be the way to go for a long range EV motorcycle. The tourer market is the only one that'll accept a 900+ pound motorcycle to have room for the batteries needed, and the bodywork including the bags and topbox can be designed to minimize drag coefficient as much as possible.)

An electric touring bike would be awesome! I'd rather see closer to 300 miles of range, because AFAIK, most of the chargers are closer to highways. I prefer back roads, even on longer rides. I'm still waiting on someone to figure out a 100mpg hybrid touring bike. I think that's the best of both worlds until battery tech and charging infrastructure catches up.

AS you know, I recently sold my beloved Victory Vision and bought a BMW R1200 GSA. I needed a motorcycle with some off pavement capabilities. If I had been looking for a large bagger, it would have been a GW. If a motorcycle works for your intended purposes and you enjoy riding it, why trade it in? I have plenty of other things I would rather do, like have the cash to take some long tours and see places I've never seen or meet up with old friends. I have over 3 Million miles in a semi and have been to every state and Canadian province, but running back roads very little. You like the bike, keep it.

Having an automatic motorcycle when you have a functional left knee and a functional left hand and AREN'T in Japan carrying a to-go box in your left hand is just such an odd choice imo. Good chunk of the benefit to motorcycles is just the accessibility to actually control your fuel consumption and speed with ease... and you want to give that up just so you don't have to pull in a clutch?!??
