    Pushing the limit.

    As a result of Honda Goldwing DRIVERS striving to make their Goldwing as close to a car as possible .... this has been spawned.

    Not only have they added an extra wheel they've even proceeded to make it a boy-racer-esque vehicle

    I hope this stops now before a fourth wheel is added hahaha

    sorry if its a repost,

    There are numerous quad conversions available too.
    Trikes suit some people and Goldwings go great.

    I just threw up a lil bit
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    Confused they are

    A little like transvestites. Trying to have a foot in both camps.

    But as a mate said: "I prefer trannies, after a good bonk we can watch the rugby together".

    Was forwarded these pics. Looks like a Laverda motor, but not sure. The question still stands: Why?

    The goldwing, looks like a seriously souped up mobility scooter. What an embarrassment of an excuse for a motorbike.
