Default The pilot makes the difference

That Goldwing went all right didn’t it!, I would be interested if the owner had hardened the suspension and tweaked the breaks.
That big 1500cc engine matched to a shaft drive should put out enough torque I have seen a picture of a gold wing pulling a wheelie before although the guy riding it did say the clutch gave up shortly afterwards.
Not really my cuppa tea….. But hey its better than a car and just as big .

It aint the bike, it's the rider.

Nothing more humbling than getting passed on your sportbike by some middle-aged guy on a Goldwing.


Granted, it's not a huge wheelie, but it IS a wheelie. A two-up wheelie. [sm=jawdrop.gif]

That's fricking hilarious. I'd love to see the scratches they put on those bike by leaning over like that. Too funny.
