This is one of the reasons I can't spend $10,000++ on a KTM dirtbike. Look at what the same money buys in the streetbike world! 8O
That's a gorgeous bike! Love the pricing in the States, I'm jealous!
For me, riding either single or with Linda (a smallish gal) I would prefer that Connie to my Gold Wing. :wink:

The 'back story' on my owning the Wing is I had a Harley before I got married to my (ex)wife. She hated it and I loved it. She wanted something 'she could ride on too'. I sold the Harley and bought the Wing. She still wouldn't ride with me and resented that I liked to ride without her. Indeed she resented most things about me other than my paycheck but that's a different story.

The bottom line is a Connie would suit my riding style better than the Wing, although the Wing is an amazing machine in its own right. But if a guy rides alone or with a small girl, the Connie may be better.
