A serious question to Gold Wing owners: Is there anything this bike can't do? I had the absolute pleasure of riding the latest iteration of this model from Birmingham, Alabama, to Daytona, Florida, for Bike Week earlier this year. To say I was blown away by its touring capability would be an understatement, but I was even taken aback by how fun it was to rail when you find the right curves.
Now, however, I'm starting to wonder if there's anything this legendary machine can't do.
Two top riders, Kirian Mirabet and Carson Brown, have taken Gold Wings enduro riding, and they don't look half bad. OK, more than half of this is the rider because Brown could rip a shopping cart around his personal track, but the Gold Wing he's on is decades old and, well, just look at it fly.
