The manager of the local Honda dealer was a good friend and allowed me a test ride on the first Wing they received back in the '70s. It was a beautiful red, similar to the '13 CB and with gold accents. It was touted as a super bike at that time and had no fairing or any touring accessories. Early non faired bikes appear almost Lilliputian compared with the heavy tourers this breed evolved into.
There's several GWs in the club I occasionally ride with. They seem like a damn car to me, but what the hell. The riders definitely like them, at least they're out there riding. And they do seem to ride them a lot.
