Waste of nice motorcycle.

craig is totally right about that being a good thing there are alot of people around that would be able to enjoy being back on a motorcycle in any form wether it be 2,3 or 4 wheels it still is a goldwing and trust me for a big heavy bike that 1800 wing rocks i personally know or have known quite a few people that would have loved the chance to ride something like this if it had been around at the time there is nothing more heart hurting than to see a proud man that until recently was able to ride anything with wheels not being able to, every time a bike passes you can just see the heart ache in that person. a person like will end up thinking less of them selves and before you know it they are in a depression they can't escape from. look at what we all go thru every winter can you imagine what it would be like to know you could never get on another motorcycle. as i said before i think that bike ,mutant whatever you want to call it is great for riders past there prime. also it's cool to see hannigan back in bussiness they are really building some cool sidecars as well.

I sent 'em an email wondering if their reverse trike kit could be used with a single rear wheel Wing. If so I bet it'd out perform a Spyder.

I have experience with Hannigan trike conversions. Their engineering was first rate but their installation was poor. I helped a friend with a K1200 BMW trike. As delivered from the factory the body work was an inch and a half out of level. We managed to fix it with about sixteen hours of disassembly, shimming and reassembly.

Since then it's been great.

Recently Kawasaki had an opportunity to go toe to toe with Honda when they introduced their new Voyager. It was Kawasaki who flinched!:blush: They chose to go after Victory and Hardly Davidson instead of match engineering with Honda's Wing.

Ma Kaw had a chance to base their new Voyager on the 1400 but to have done so would have been to throw down the glove in front of the "leadwing". Ma Kaw knew they would loose and effing chickened out!

GoldWings are Great bikes. Their not quite my cup o tea but, with a capable pilot, they're hard to match.

I'm looking for the other 3 guys who have one of these so we can weld them together and ride to Florida.

They've got one of these @ the local BMW shop.

They do. They have the Concours 1400. I think it's sort of a cross between a touring bike and a crotch rocket. I would still go with the "T-rex"

This one won't mess your hair up.

Now-That's outright em-bare-ass-in.

While I've not ridden the new Concours 14, I have sat on one. In order to maintain cornering clearance Ma Kaw jacked up the saddle bags till it's damn near necessary to pole vault onto the saddle. That plus the poor comparo that the motorcycle press gave the 14 against the ST1300 and the FJ 1300 tells me that the ZRex is the bike to own.

On that, we do agree.

If you want good bike reviews you need to look at the european magazines. They are brutally honest.I have a co-worker with a new Concourse, He never rides it or mentions it.
