Why not? The bike in the video is a Honda Goldwing which has a 6-cylinder inline vTEC 1800cc engine... better engine than most cars on Malaysian roads....

This is pale in comparison with my favourite VM Tuoareg towing a Boeing 747 Jumbo plane. See for yourself.

It is 1800 cc 6-cylinder Honda vTec engine on the Honda Goldwing. May I also say it has a reverse gear! There's one under my porch... I can't be wrong on this.

The hardcore die-hard GW loyalist speaketh! :D

actually to split hair. Its 1832cc...and for the Blur Sotong, the reverse gear is needed as this touring beauty comes in in excess of 420kg!

Pity I am too short and too feather weight and too poor, for this Beautiful Mother of all tourers... :o

The seat height is now adjustable, bro. If that shorty Eddie Mahathir can get up on a GW, you can because he is really short... :D

So is it possible to ride the GW backwards with the reverse gear?

Also I've always wondered about this: If the GW falls over, is it possible for one person to pull it upright again?

wah... their lanes so wide... even in traffic jam GW can go thru easily.

hmmm.... maybe our local authorities should get this bike and tow away all those cars parked illegally. :D

Hey Yang berbiker Lato Tupai,

Just wanna ask you how does the Kawasaki Voyager compare with the Goldwing? Is the Voyager still in production?

I do know for a fact that the PRDM did have at least a few Voyagers for VIP escorts back in the late 80s

I have posted this video before, maybe more than a year ago, its a Honda Goldwing rider doing the Deals Gap, a popular biking road due to the turns and corners, in the US... a bit like our own Ulu Yam stretch up to Genting or Jelebu - Lubuk Cina - Titi stretch.... or the latest one at the new KL-Bentong-Raub stretch...

I have never seen a guy ride a Goldwing this way... like a sports bike when it is 420kg tourer, not even a sports tourer...

Don't try it at home yah:
