I wonder how many people it took to pick that thing up again, I know because it’d take quite the pair of thighs to pick-up the CBX, and yeah I heard the Goldwing is a rock..

My uncle has a Honda CBX something, it’s huge and unwieldy, the scariest thing about it is the fear of not being strong enough to hold it..

I had a GSX1000 katana, GL1000 Goldwing and BMW K100 - the BMW was the tallest and heaviest so required a lot of tiptoe balancing on an adverse camber and it stll got laid down at times (luckily at walking pace so no damage done.

The Goldwing was a high speed barge but stable as anything due to the low centre of gravity and the Katana was pretty good due to a lowish seat height.

Engine bars are a must to avoid damange from a low speed drop I would say.

Especially when the exhaust is detached..

It’s not me though it’s my family members that are mechanics..
