I love my 22. I had a guy on a Harley roll up beside me at a stoplight and as per usual I smiled and waved hello. He gave me a nasty look and just started revving his noise machine. “Okay” I said we’ll just click this over into Sport mode. Light turned green and my front tire came off the ground, his bike was making a ton of noise but barely moving and about 3 seconds later he was already at least 20 car lengths behind me and another 3 seconds and he was just an ugly dot in my rear view mirror. I wave to ALL riders, not all Harley riders snub me but it is ONLY Harley riders that won’t wave back. Every other type always waves back.
The GW on sport mode comes to life!
That's strange when I'm riding my sport bikes Harley riders wave at me, or when I wave they wave back. Must be a Wisconsin thing. Most people are friendly here as riders.@@jdbmoto
The 2018+ GW is factory limited to 112mph. It will do 112 going up a really steep hill no problem but not one mile faster and that's like half throttle. Supposedly someone came up with a crack for the ECU that got rid of the limiter but they only sell to racers. Like some folks have noted here, better make sure your tires are in good shape before you do any land speed records on one of these cows. I saw a rear tire at the shop last week that detonated at speed. Dude was lucky to walk away with his life. Tire's aren't cheap but they are a great deal compared to a funeral.
So it has exactly the same top speed as my Honda Ridgeline. Same way electronically limited of course.
I've heard if the speed limiter in the ECU is overridden and the bike is taken in for service and the bike is still under warranty the dealer could void the warranty. Running motorcycle tires (at least on the rear) would not be safe at speeds in the triple digits. A Z speed rated car tire (especially a run flat) would be much safer. GWs are so hard on rear tires, and not all that much easier on the fronts...that's why I roll double darkside...
I recently bought a 2018 bagger was believed that it was limited, as it gets there pretty quickly. I love the bike, it's not a pig, but handles like a bit bigger sports bike.
You can get around the speed limiter by using a SpeedoHealer and limit the gauge so it cant read any higher than any number below 112. Your bike will stop reading at your set point but continue to pull. Use your phone GPS to show true speed at that point.
@@GrandpaWazi The problem is it's not plug and play. You have to splice it in and no way I'm going to cut my wiring harness up on a bike I will be selling. If it was a connector, I would have already bought one.
Thanks for risking your life for this good stuff!
I do 90 at times on a DCT and I forget I am on 2 wheels. I have to remind myself to slow down on a clear open HWYS. MAGICAL MACHINE !!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching! It certainly is a smooth machine
Oh, wow, yeah, my 2018 manual 6-speed tops out at 112...it sure gets there in a hurry! Nice job!
We have to go a lot faster if we're going to catch up with the mothership 👽🛸
On my 22 wing dct tour, i was able to get it to 120. It didn’t even feel like I was moving that fast, smooth, and just power. Only thing, it was still responsive in the turns but you needed room.
I have ridden my 2013 BMW K1600 at an indicated speed between 140-145 and not a full throttle. It has a 6 speed manual transmission and 160 hp. I am 68 years and have been riding motorcycles for 44 years.
Nothing like the the thrill of speed and seeing how far the machine will go. Thanks for watching and keep the shiny side up sir!
I have a '13 K1600GT too. These Goldwing guys have no idea what the K bike does compared to the GL. It will cruise comfortably at the GL's top speed, without effort.
I’ve had my 06 K1200 GT to 165 without any struggles
I could care less how fast it goes. Fast enough is ok for me. I like the gear ratios - cruising at 75-80 with the rpms somewhere around 2500 in 7th gear. New tech, new innovation, new styling, ya I want one yesterday !
Well put!! 👍
I keep seeing posts where Harley guys are bragging that their bikes have a higher top speed. If the GW wasn't speed limited, that wouldn't even be close to being true...
@@jamesbottger5894 yeah some HD guys have weird egos. If I were into touring/baggers I would get a gw over any HD
@@BaldKiwi117 Harleys are more about image than they are function. I know quite a few HD guys who claim their bikes are comfortable for the long haul, but most of them have never ridden a Gold Wing, so they have nothing to compare to...
@@jamesbottger5894 again, i wonder why a Harley rider would want a higher top speed
Just after I got my 2012 Goldwing I went for a ride with my youngest brother who was riding a Harley. On our way back home we encountered a lot of merging traffic. I'm not one to contend for my position with automobiles so I just backed off a little. After the traffic had settled down, I rolled on some throttle to catch up with my brother. As I slowed down to match his speed I glanced down at the speedometer and noticed the needle dropping through 100. Very impressive power and speed, and that's a 2012 bike. I'm sure the newer ones are just as impressive.
Acceleration wise, the new ones are even faster...
The different riding modes make the Goldwing that much more versatile. Want to take it easing, leaving it on touring mode, want to wake up the beast, switch to Sport Mode and let her rip. Thanks for watching!
@@jdbmoto I find sport mode way too radical. This bike is plenty fast enough in touring mode...
@@jamesbottger5894 use sport in a tunnel
nice sounds
That engine sounds awesome 👌
It does, I can't imagine what it would be like with an exhaust! Thanks for watching!
it's big(compare to other bikes), it's fast, it's stable, it's fancy, it's expensive: it's a 2 wheels convertible car per se.
I sure your the guy who did the review of the VFR1200 a while back ? That vid helped convince be to buy one lol. Keep riding dude!
Not me, but would love to ride one of those. Thanks for watching!
This bike has freight train torque. It gets there quickly at a low 2500 RPM. Then smoothly and quietly cruise missiles from there. Stealth.
You couldn’t have said any better. It’s a TORQUE MONSTER and smooth as silk!
nice Video!
I wish you much success for the new year and keep up the good work 🍀
KUKI
Thanks for watching! Keep the shinny side up.
I had a 1976 Kawasaki 125 2-stroke enduro that I remember being limited at 75MPH. Unless the wind was behind you, and you were going downhill. Then 80MPH.
Love the Goldwing that’s plenty fast enough… if I needed to go faster than that I would stay on a crouch rocket
BT-Moto ECU re-flash for 2018+ Gold Wings removes the speed limiter and smooths throttle response in Sport Mode. Top speed goes to something in the 123/124 range with no other modifications. And, you can return to the stock tune anytime.
That’s good to know!
Thanks for revving up the Gold Wing. I didn’t buy my 2021 Gold Wing Tour DCT to do the quarter mile with. That’s what my Gen 2 Yamaha VMAX is for. The Wing by far is the best riding touring bike with all it’s comfort extras. Now, with that said, it is disappointing it has a limiter at that speed for when we get the itch to blow out the carbon.
Thanks for watching! I was disappointed as well, but I feel like all the newer bikes have a limited in place. My 2008 FJR pulls past 110 with no issues and still has plenty to go
I've owned plenty of Honda's in my time, and it seems that their legal team has too much say in the final product. If I remember correctly, the cruise control on the original 1500cc Goldwing would only work up to 70mph. Ridiculous.
@@thumperjdm I totally agree with you concerning being Ridiculous!!!
@@stancook2888 I ride a Gen2 Vmax, and honestly the 2021 goldwing I own is roughly as fast as a gen1 vmax. What's funny is my 2009 vmax has a larger gas tank than the goldwing. I stop every ~165 miles for gas usually on both bikes.
@@KareemHadee There's no way this GW is as fast as a gen 1 Vmax. That bike ran a low 10 second 1/4. The quickest I've seen the new GW go was 11.95...
I had never taken my 2009 BMW K1300GT much more than a 110mph, so just for the heck of it I pinned the throttle from a 30mph roll on, on a empty toll road and shot up to 155 in nothing flat. The speedometer needle was still rising but 155 was good enough since the manual suggested the pillion hard bags should be removed at speeds over 110mph, which they were not.
Damn!
I have a '13 K1600GT. BMW's are made for high speed touring. All day long. Love them.
So good
Is there a reason why you keep your right hand so far out on the end of the grip?
Wish I could put a disclaimer on the channel but I can’t haha! Had a 2008 FJR and it had a touchy throttle lock so I would keep my hand closer to the end of the handlebars to avoid touching it.
Ive reached that top end limit several times passing, traffic in wyoming. comes up quick when youre in a hurry
Thanks for watching!
My 99 valkyrie will.do 140+. Dissapointing seeing a limiter on the bike
I feel like all new bikes have a limiter as compared to the older models. Thanks for watching!
@@jdbmoto thanks for the video. Keep it up.
That's what I figured, it's just limited really low. I wonder why they chose to limit it at 105? I had a car that was governed at 135 mph... seems completely arbitrary sometimes where the manufacturers decide to put the limit. It's not like it's related to the speed limit...
I have a 2004 honda valkyrie rune with a goldwing engine.
130+ on an 850lb bike. So the 22 goldwings are capable if you take the limiter off. But 110 is plenty though , specially for 2 up
Thanks for watching! 110 is plenty and truth be told, there is no need to go that fast!
Had my '21 6-speed up to roughly 111mph the other day on two quick pulls (with the windshield in both positions). It was super windy with an awful side wind out on the desolate valley road I tested it at.. So I really wouldn't have wanted to go much faster than that anyway given the conditions. Once I get new tires put on the bike and have a calm day, I'll probably give it another shot to see if I can achieve anything quicker, to see where the speed limiter really lives. Either way, that's plenty fast and largely unnecessary. I'm plenty happy cruising at 80mph comfortably here on the open roads of Utah. I definitely didn't buy this bike with the intention of it being a crotch rocket, but I still think it'd be nice for it to achieve 120-130mph or so, but I guess that's a pipedream from what I've heard about the limited speed on these bikes. Even many passenger cars today are capable of at least that... Oh well, no big deal. It's unlikely my bike will see anything over 100mph more than a few more times while I own it anyway. I'm extremely happy with it just the way it is.
Thanks for watching! Rarely do I go over 100MPH on my FJR but it’s nice to know I can if that makes sense
Cool man. I ride a 2013 K1600GT, currently on the darkside. (Vercelli Strada 2 tire, W speed rated) It cruises comfortably at the GL's top speed, and will do over 150mph as top speed. And it sounds amazing.
I bought my 2021 Goldwing last August 21' and out of 30+ bikes I have owned this is by far the most comfortable bike. My Indian's, Harley's and Ducati's all fun, but you can't beat Honda's drivetrain and comfort. And water cooled is so much better on the 90° days.
Thanks for watching! Ann incredible platform and one that is going to be hard to replicate. It’s flat 6 also makes it a lot better as far as handling and cornering.
Bruh you lying
@@AzmiMaulanaHamdaniWhy is he lying?
That's really bad my gl1800 2009 140 I don't understand the artificial limit disappointing
I set my Gl1500 to cruse at an indicated 100mph one time on a long straight in New Mexico. It held it for as long as I wanted it to and just said ho hum.
without a doubt the Goldwing platform is one of the best motorcycle touring platforms of all time
I wouldn't buy one until I have a way to bypass that. (Not gonna have a HD outrun me due to a speed limiter)
Haha! Thanks for watching.
Your loss. To not buy a bike for the .001% of riding you’ll do…and be willing to go without the positives for the 99.999% … well, certainty not how I make decisions 🤣
Besides, if I want to race, I’ll grab the keys to Mustang
@@jeffgAdventures
I would be stepping down in performance from a Yamaha VMAX in order to get comfort. But I still wanna have some fun!!
@@jeffgAdventures Texas though, I've been somewhere in the triple digits, at night, in pouring down rain, and someone passed me with an SUV like I was standing still on the side of the highway... I wouldn't recommend riding a bike that slow in Texas, its just not safe. Try to match the speed of traffic at least, you don't want to be roadkill. I haven't driven a bike in Texas, didn't have anything near fast enough to be safe**
**besides a pedal bike in races in Texas, and occasionally on the road as well as with electric motor, but whoa its so unsafe! They even complained about it when I'd do that at work because during that time we had another engineer in the office become paralyzed and put into a coma for a while before terminating from this Earth while riding bicycle to work. I highly recommend going at least the flow of traffic, its very unsafe not to do so.
no HD will outrun you in 0-80...
The question mere mortals fear to ask, now answered ;-)
Thanks for watching!
That sounds like there is a lot of room for improvement
You say its limited, is there a way to remove that limiter?
More than likely software
In this video:
Big chonky spaceship boi do big zoom
thanks for watching!
I just sold my 07 FJR1300 and now im looking at getting a Goldwing. Seeing this is a little discouraging. My FJR topped out in the mid 160s.
Thanks for watching! I had a 2008 and I know what you are talking about. It’s a different ride but a fun one.
With the windscreen at lowest, defeated limiter, and top bags removed, this GW could do about 145mph.
I had a 2007 up to 132. 55 freeway north leaving Newport Beach
I keep seeing that from the comments, it appears that the new Wings and new motorcycles for that matter have a lot more restrictions
A wonderful day
Thanks for watching!
Every motorcycle over 700cc should be allowed to reach 125mph IMO
Also, a 7 gallon tank would be better on the Goldwing…it is a “long distance tourer” and comfortable enough to not need to stop until 300-400 miles
@@dickgrantberg rodger that, mu butt starts to burn even with my riding pad
Is that bike electronically limited to 105MPH? My 2021 Rebel 1100DCT is electronically limited to 100MPH.
You can tell there's more in there on my bike, but it won't do it with the limiter on there.
I'm sure the Goldwing is probably capable of 130 / 135 if it is un-corked.
BUT, by doing that, I think you screw up your warranty.
I’m sure it can do more with a flash of the ECU especially feeling how she pulls all the way up
I own a rebel and its limited as well. I believe can go much faster, even my Nc750 DCT can go faster than the rebel 1100. My top speed on the NC750 was 178kmh (110mph)
wow super.
Thanks for watching!
Apples to Older Apples, I have had my '03 up to 107 indicated, and she seemed to be quite solid and capable, but I might guess that they expect a lot of 2-up riding on these bikes and chose to limit the top end out of respect for the pillion. Moving 1200+ pounds on two wheels at that speed with no guarantee of anything could be an issue. But I have yet to try the new bike, and I'm afraid if I do I might be riding home on it! (but I would go with manual shift)
Thanks for watching! If you do, test ride both and then make a decision. I wasn’t sold on DCTs until I test rode it. Now my Yamaha FJR feels outdated
@@jdbmoto Haha, ironic, I just sold my FJR this last Fall. I miss the hell out of the speed factor for sure, but the knee angle was becoming painful on longer rides. What a phenomenal bike though!
Small world indeed! I do feel the FJR being cramped but at 35 I can deal with the leg position for a while longer haha
@@jdbmoto Yeah, huh? It seems a natural transition... I have found quite a lot of Wing drivers also have FJRs as their other go-to bike, and like myself, they stepped up to the wing but couldn't part with the Feej... and then the comfort issue begins to be noticeable and they sell the "smaller" bike. My next bike in the stable will probably be another V-strom 650. Great bike for my riding position and plenty of power for my slower but cargo-carrying adventures. Once took mine from Salt Lake City to San Diego for a scuba weekend, and I was loaded like the Beverly Hillbillies. Ten and a half straight hours and I was there. would have been nicer on the Wing!
I'm a motor cyclist in Scotland and find these top speeds insanely slow. 140 mph on a 15 yr old BMW k 1100 lt. 135 mph on a 15 yr old kawasaki zzr 600. Both times still climbing but ran out of road.
More and more restrictions from manufacturers!
I'm a biker in Asia and our bikes aren't limited like American bikes are.
My 650cc Honda CTX is faster than this 1800cc Goldwing.
I'm planning to tour across the States next year. But if my bike can only do 112mph, I'll rethink it.
Oh so it "only" does 105... If that's not fast enough for you, you bought the wrong bike (I mean "you" as in the reader, not "you" as the poster.) The GW to me is a perfect bike. I have no desire to go that fast, and that bike would be what I would buy today. Not sure how I feel about the DCT yet. I fear I might forget how to clutch, and get myself in trouble if I ever rode another. I have a 2014 Valkyrie, and I absolutely love it. That flat six 1800 cc engine is rocking fast and reliable as can be.
Thanks for watching!
oh yeah.
A 650 burgman will out run it.
That is nuts.
What happen to gold wings? They where a good looking bike.
I love the new styling especially the rear.
This is interesting 🧐. I’ve had my 2021 DCT to 115 mph and I was the one to let off the throttle.
That really is interesting! Sport mode?
@@jdbmoto touring mode.
Interesting to say the least!
I think the Canadian bikes don't have the limiter, or it's set higher. Not an expert so I could be wrong. Are you in the US?
@@jeffmckeown9639 I’m in the US.
I own a 2021 goldwing touring DCT. I've seen roughly 110-115mph on this bike in sport mode. It's quick, but not super fast. if you want the bike to go fast you have to stay out of 7th gear. Otherwise the bike becomes gutless. Touring mode is plenty fast for me, and I don't find myself using sport mode too often. The other bike I ride is a 2009 vmax, and comparing the two bikes would be pointless. Honestly the goldwing handles like a dream around 75-95mph! But you need to change out the stock Dunlop's, and ditch the stock battery.
Thanks for watching! What battery did you go with?
@@jdbmoto A Yuasa YUAM720GH GYZ20HL Battery. I still need to install it. I don't trust the new "exploding" batteries. I will be going with bridgestones on my next tire change. I run ride-on tire sealant in my tires for longevity, and to hopefully prevent flats. I don't really think the it matters so much which battery you go with because all AGM's seem to only last roughly ~3years for me.
sport and econ have same top speed
i check often
@@marcleblanc9120 Yeah, but the difference Is how fast you get there with sport vs. econ. Econ is a waste of time IMHO. Rain mode is very helpful. Maybe econ is an alternative to rain mode, but I definitely do not use it in long distance rides.
@@KareemHadee the only thing it changes is throttle mapping
I have had one for 4 years the fully run in engine will give just shy of 120 mph
How many miles on your GW?
112 mph? A 2012 Kia minivan does 120 mph before it cut off.
The newest Goldwing owners say that the sport mode is insane. Most don't even use it. It's just too wild.
I use Sport mode to pass. It's a rocket! Fun but ya, I don't need that for anything else.
The Sport mode is no joke, you better be holding on during acceleration. Is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde when switching the GW to sport mode. Thanks for watching!
@@jeffmckeown9639 hold on and put your head down
it is rough when in sport
Sport mode is rather fast (my prew bike was a zzr1400/zx14 and that was insane 🤣) for a bike this size, the problem with the sport mode is that it is best suited for highways and not for narrow twisty roads, then it becomes to jerky.
i use it in every tunnel
I had my 2009 up to 115 mph
That's it. My Bmw k1600 governs at 128MPH...Once in a blue moon be nice to break the sound barrier. haha
Every once in a while it’s good to let them run WOT
I had my 06 up to 125 and I let off
My old 2001 Goldwing pulled so hard to 215 km/hr so fast while passing a line of cars that when I looked to see how fast I was going and how smooth it was I couldn't believe it. I asked the dealer how fast they would go and he said his would do 245. He also said you will know when you are approaching 245 because the windshield starts to bow down towards you. Never did that again.
1:03 sounds lowkey like a porsche
could stay with that to about 60 .
115 mph is top for my 2018 DCT........Plenty fast for me,but I came from Harley.
Thanks for watching! Definitely the motorcycle manufacturers are getting more restrictive, but it seems the way everything is going.
I just don’t understand how a 1800 can be so slow with you have a 1200 doing 180+..!
My thoughts exactly.
The rider did not know what the top speed was??
A 1500 would indicate 125 -an 1800 would do 128 gps- the new one 115 indicated.checked it many times .!!! By the way cruiseman averaged 41.7 mpg on his dct ,I have averaged 55 mpg on my 6 speed -English gallons -10% bigger.and I ride much quicker on more challenging roads
Thanks for watching!
Is there a noise cancelling helmet?
Thanks for watching! I don’t think that exists, but they do sell some helmets that are very quiet. Shoei is very good from personal experience. My FJR creates a weird turbulence that makes the helmet have more wind noise than other bikes. Hope that helps!
If I wanted to go slow, I would buy a moped.
HD = HD, Gold Wing = Air Force Jet
They are smooth!

Thanks for watching!
Seriously detuned bike. My
Concourse C-14 weighs
Almost as much and will
Easily reach 150. Cruises
At 80 at 3750 rpm.
Having a speed limiter is like sex with a rubber. I'll keep my 2013 Goldwing, it goes over 135.
Dang! That’s crazy that they would limit it by that much! Thanks for watching.
Let us know what you find
Max speed I can get is 111 on the dash
Which is only 109 gps........
Thanks for watching! Just love how smooth the power delivery is and how well it handles and moves for a 800+ lb bike
I still can't figure out why Honda set the limiter at such a low speed. This bike is easily capable of doing 150 MPH, and doing it safely.
At the very least 125 easy. You can tell she still had some left in her
@@jdbmoto Considering it's overall tall gearing, plenty of HP and torque, and it's aerodynamics, I would think 150 would be achievable...
Maybe lawsuits when you die riding at 125-150 MPH? No?
Good Rides
@@philtil8977 If that's the case, then why aren't ALL motorcycles speed limited?
@@jamesbottger5894 In this world there are many trains of thought and/or opinions, just as yours. I am unable to account for everyone. Good Rides
Amazing motorcycle, but needs an ecu reflash, top speed restriction delete. Easy fix.
Thanks for watching!
One more reason to get the fjr
Loved my FJR when I had it, but my knees after long days no the road didn't agree.
@@jdbmoto people don't buy motorcycles to go slow.
So I cruise @85 on my ‘21 DCT Tour as if I was sitting on my easy chair listening to my stereo and getting 41 mpg….. my complaint? simple…… 5.5 gallon fuel tank is too small, otherwise it’s perfect ride above all others
I’m actually impressed that you still manage to get 41mpg at that speed
@@jdbmoto yeah! Me too but it’s on cruise control and I don’t roll on more or less handlebar throttle preferring +/- toggle adjustments for smooth speed transitions = 41 mpg
I wonder if you can turn a saddle bag (or add another tank near the bag area) with an aux fuel pump to maybe top it off when it gets low on the gauge. I haven't personally looked into this, but I'm sure they do this for motorcycle cannonball runs, you'd have to.
Normally I think diesel for motorcycle would be novelty, but in this case getting something that made 80 mpg and doubling that range would be pretty good, because even my 250cc at WOT doing about 75 mph with a 3 gallon fuel tank easily beats your range at around 280 miles (you should be empty at 225.5 assuming every last drop is spent), which is bad when a street legal dirt bike with knobby tires is cruising further than a really good touring/sight seeing bike.
@@jakegarrett8109 okay, 200 mile tank range is hardly a issue when your riding in the very best touring motorcycle in total comfort
Nothing beats a Goldwing
@@gonzalo1042 I agree with it probably being nicest, but like you said it really would be great if they had a large tank or auxiliary tank option. Can always turn great into greater, or excellent into a superb cruising masterpiece. They might sell a solution for that, I just haven't looked into it, if they do then I'd say go for it and let it soak up the miles!
They call it a governor for a reason. Government to the rescue !
Sound like you driving a car when you started to speed up
That 1.8L flat 6 will do that. Incredible power plant, thanks for watching!
I bought an 06 new. Great bike still ! BUT,,, The new ones are fantastic. Never ridden anything as smooth. Quicker and more agile than my 06. Wings are the best touring motorcycles ever made. I've had Harleys and a couple of the B avarian M anure W agons.
I like Harley's Touring Models a lot ! I can work on them. That takes a lot of expense out of HD ownership. I can work on BMW's, but I am not going too.
That's it??? 105mph? Makes me very curious why Honda would put such a low top speed on this bike. The '01 thru '17 has a top speed limiter, but it's much higher. The BMW Grand America has a "speed nanny" also, not much over a 100mph I think. Do these bikes have some high speed handling problems? Yeah, I hear it now..." Why do you NEED to go any faster?" Don't take it personal against your bike. Don't get your feelings hurt.
No worries this was a demo bike! No handling issues at all, very smooth and stable as you would expect from a 800+ pound gorilla
Difference is this ride will do it all day and do it two up.
I think the BMW Grand America and K1600B has stability problems at speeds over 110 because of the shape of the pillion hard bags and the rear top box and feet forward design. No speed limiters on the other BMW K touring bikes.
Anything over 100 is pointless on a motorcycle, it's plenty quick for the average Joe.
so it's a scooter lol
the kymco 550 tops out at 115 as well and is less than half the price of this thing.
Different tools for different jobs, but you are correct about the speed reference
That's not the Goldwing Style.
112? That’s weak from Honda ……. yes I understand it’s purposefully limited …. but still, just 112? Surprising.
Get at proper grip of the handlebars.....
Previous series is much more faster n higher which is up to 220kph!!!
That is my understanding, maybe Honda knows something we don't.
That's my understanding too...maybe honda doesn't know about something we realised n knew well!!
I started to buy a new Goldwing until found out it is governed
I am certain there is a company that can tune the ECU to remove the limiter. It's still worth considering.
Top speed equals 3500 RPM? You sure about that? I think you better check your figures again…
Don’t think you watched the entire video or watched it at all. Either way thanks for watching!
Pass
I guess owners don't care but it's slow. I've seen small trucks go this speed on the autobahn.
Thanks for watching and I would love to get on the Autobahn!
What a waste of money. Who in their right mind would splash out 25k on a bike that can't even do 130
I was also expecting more, but this bike is for a different type of rider.
Lol limited on 100 !!!!!
Kawasaki Vulcan S = faster than a Honda Goldwing
WRONG that is not a boxer engine and nowhere close to it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can eat this bike with my s1000rr
Certainly, but this motorcycle is all about comfort and reliability not speed.
@@jdbmoto yes but it is overpriced i don't think its value for money
Who is able to do top speed? Jail
Thanks for watching!
Go out west. Endless highways no traffic.
and tires
Lol not too fast
Very bad bike
Found my 2018 DCT shifts into 7th @110mph & I’ll likely never know how much faster it’ll go.
Insane doing top speed on a public highway. More so while narrating a U Tube post😵💫.
