New Yamaha Transcontinental Tourer
#4
It's an intriguing motorcycle. I'm not a huge v-twin fan and that seems to be one of the features they liked about it. I liked the styling for the most part; sort of the best of the big Harleys combined with the best of the Goldwing. Looks like a very comfortable touring bike, but I have to wonder what it would be like rounding those hairpins on AR123 on one. If it is priced much lower than the Goldwing, I would say it's a great alternative. If it's priced close to the Wing, I'd have to ride them both to see which I liked better. --- but I'm not really in the market for a pure touring bike.

One more thing....if the seat is low enough, it could be a great bike for my friend (Bumpstart) Mike.
