I hate Goldwings for 2 reasons.......I really hate Goldwings because of their looks, handling, and HUGE size....But I really dislike most of the owners..I think they are the most rude, and caustic sob's on the face of the earth...They run down every other motorcycle that's not a Goldwing.
I've had many arguments with Goldwing owners started by them concerning what I ride vs what they ride. I own a Harley, and a Kawasaki....I'll take Harley owners anyday over Goldwing owners...............

I think I'm becoming a Harley snob.
We have a couple of guys in our regular group that show up on their Goldwings and I have to say, I really hate those things.
They sound like electric vehicles. One of the GW riders got his like 3 years ago and never owned a Harley because he says they leak oil and break down all the time. One of the others has never owned a harley but has been riding for 30 years. He only shows up if there is a 0% chance of rain. Say's he has never road in rain before.
Here's how I see it.
If you own a Goldwing, you are one of two things
1) dellusional
2) a *****
I can live with other cruiser types, but not with Goldwings although some BMW models discusst me too.
Look around sometime when you are in a group of like 15 Harley's and you got a couple of Goldwings with you. Screws up the whole picture.

Well here we go bike bashing. I thought it was all about riding and having fun. I have had GW's and Harleys, I have met people on both sides that I didn't care for. I guess at my age I have learned just to try and get along with all bikers. If you don't like a bike or a person don't ride them or ride with them. I have had my nose to the grind stone for many years and now I'm retired. I can pick and choose who and where I ride with. Life sure gets tuff when all you have to do is complane about a bike or person. I try and spend as many hours riding and not bitching. The older you get the shorter the time left to ride. So I'm not spending it complaining about what ever. I try and live so when the time comes I don't have to say I wish I would done this or that. I can't do it all but I plan to give it one hell of a try.
