GoldWing 1/4 mile times
Not bad at all Wing. I'd say a few of them were a little embarrassed

My 1800 is quicker off the line due to lower grearing and more torque at lower RPM and seems to have quicker throttle response. Top end I've seen about 10 more mph out of the 1800. However you'all got me thinking I need to take both to the local drag strip where they have fun nights just to see (and hope I don't break anything :twistedSmile. My last time there was with my '84 V65 Magna 12sec flat @ 109 mph....
i don't know about 1/4 mile times because vic is right , most of us are just rolling along on the open road in 5th gear but my 1200 is not quite in the the power band and needs a downshift to get going where as my 1500 is always in its power band

I'm with you the times are a bit off - http://www.dragtimes.com/Honda-Gold-Wing...12820.html Shows the 1800 at 13.13. I push my 1200 all the time but i have to admit I run out of road when I try to push the scooter the V65 is a different animal for sure..!!
