The Lyrics
The Honda Goldwing has been around since 1974 and has matured from GL1000 all the way up to GL1800. I have nothing against this bike. The only downside is the weight penalty from 0-30 mph, takes a firm hand, and also the stand. COG is good but many Goldwings have tipped over. The German bikes are techno marvels, computer monitored and controlled, emphasis on superior riding excellence for a competitive price. The CHP out here ride BMWs and do not want to return to Harley under any circumstances. Harley big tourers are still loud, technically behind, and have an uncomfortable ride compared to Honda and BMW. I know from personal experience.
Goldwinger
It's the bike, the bike that weighs so much
100 lbs short of half ton
The interest lingers
Big 1800 with a flat 6 spin
Touring King
In '74 it did apoear
GL1000 lacked a lot a gear
Practically naked with a flat 4
All the bells and whistles to come
Honda Goldwinger
Appeal for the mid-life goal
640,000 sold!
In '83 the Venture Royal appeared
V4, shaft drive, better ride, caused fear
But Yamaha started shifting gears
Harley clone did become
Famous Goldwinger
"Chrome Couch" still going strong
Honda's crown
(BMW) K12 and K16 bold
Techno flow
CHP knows
What rules the road
But if you like gold
Domestic, sold
Buy a Goldwinger
A head-turner...

In Finland, Honda Goldwing is known as "Homo-Couch" as many owners tend to decorate them garishly. They are still very comfortable driving compared to many other motorbikes. (HD is known as "Monkey Swing".)
In US, Goldwings also called "Two-Wheeled Christmas Tree" due to owner over-accessorizing!
In Russia, Goldwing decorates YOU, and calls YOU names
