    Honda may have even taken them home after the first practice, wore thru their exhausts??
    Shades of the Yamaha TX750's at the Aussie 6 hour. The factory bought the only one that finished straight out of the impound area.
    It was a private entry and they told Kirby they'd never taken it over 6000rpm....

    Mate had one of the first wings in ChCh. Freely admitted that if it fell over he couldn't pick it up. Not a small guy either.
    Which is funny as even Honda tried pretty hard as they put on Alloy rims.
    By all accounts the first wings were quite sporty more in the vein of a VFR than a modern goldwing/winnebago
    from memory they cut some pretty decent top speeds and 1/4's

    i phil carmen told me a few months ago he raced a gold wing and yes they wore through their pipes, before the race he went back home and had to weld all the pipes up to be allowed to race, he asked the other team how they got on on a gold wing and they said they simply bogged up the pipes, enough for scrutineering as as soon as they were on the track no one would know, imagine how much bog was littering the circuit

    I was on a group ride on Oz with someone who'd just ridden one around Australia! Cornering speeds were limited, but it was very quick once on the power.

    You'd think he could throw in a new starter moor for that money! And at least straighten up the left hand mirror. Not only incredibly out of touch re price, but very fucken lazy!
