New Honda Video

[spacetiger_imp]

supposedly the big reveal is the new Goldwing... Not so much that there would be a naked version, tho that would be cool.. I just doubt it as it's space agey looking these days... Not to mention that Valkyrie's and Rune's didn't have staying power..

The big reveal from the Goldwing is supposedly all new front end that Honda hopes to translate to other bikes... From the patent leaks - it's supposed to look something like this:

Thanks for posting this, if nothing more than to discuss this more.

Its not the same as the BMW design (I have one), but it does share some aspects. Most notably an A-arm that the shock would work through. The BMW has what looks like traditional forks, but in the Honda design (as shown) they have a linkage set up.

I'm sure the front end squatting under brake loading is gone like the BMW design. It probably steers with great precision, but looks like it would be more expensive to manufacture(?).

I like manufactures that probe or push the envelope...
