Its got a huge following. However it's normally by the older seasoned bikers who have their Mrs in tow.

Depending on what year you want its regarded as an armchair on wheels.

Still (I think) the only bike with a reverse gear.

Wouldn't like to drop one lol

The urals also have a reverse gear. Handy with a sidecar outfit

I've always thought that there should be Gold Wing racing... any and all modifications can be made to engine but fairings brakes, suspension and frame must remain stock.

Extra points for loudest music and finishing with a trailer still attached. You may need to reinforce the crash barriers.... a bit

One of the lads in my club has one, it's huge but is a nice bike. Mind you he is a big load as this is not really a small persons bike

Many many years ago a mate stripped his down, cleaned it, customised it and rebuilt it over the winter in his lounge.

Then found he couldn't get it out of the house. Strip down and rebuild in the garden.

Would love one but already have six other bikes! Not enough room in the garage and have no real use for one

There was a Goldwing sidecar raced in the 70's I saw it at Brands Hatch.
