I know of a few older Harley owners that went to a Goldwing. More comfortable and reliable.

I rode Coast to Coast twice, one on a Harley FLH (1982) and once on a Harley FXRT (1985). Both times I was prepared with a tool kit – adjustable wrench, pliers, Swiss Army knife and black tape. I never experienced any problems with my Harley on either trip, but did stop to help riders on Gold and Silver wings several times. I found the comfort level was outstanding on both bikes.
I too know of some Harley riders who went to Gold Wings when they grew to old and infirm for their old bikes – but they had ridden hard tail choppers for decades and never sat a Dresser.

LOL, I've actually found it's the other way around. The GW riders go back to HD when they're too old or infirm to handle 1,000 pounds of bike.

My dad rode his Harley across country and back in 1958, he was 20 at the time. He ran out of money in the state of Indiana and had to get back to western PA. Thank goodness people were nice back then. They took IOU's and he sent them money, some people were just nice and didn't want anything. He still talks about a beautiful indian girl he saw somewhere out west.
