All indications are that CVT transmissions in Goldwings aren't All That.

I still love my little 93 Harley Davidson FXR.

We’re growing old together. :-)

Won't comment on the Honda transmission controversy except to say an A/T on a bike is not for me.

I do like the camper trike in your post though --- does it have a toilet? Microwave? Big screen TV?

This thread makes me laugh (and cry) . . .

The latest Harleys have changed Dramatically. Gone are the OLD DAYS where you needed a Bone Crushing grip on the left hand lever to get any sort of stopping power from the Front brake. Today, anything more than a two fingers grip will have you inadvertantly practicing your Stoppies (were it mot for the integrated brake controls IMU). Brembos, BAH!

CVT Trannies, DOUBLE BAH!

(I wasted a metric TON of money on a QUICK SHIFTER option. Im not in that big of a hurry.)

Manual clutch just seems less complicated, but like I said before. If it gets your knees in the breeze, who cares!?
