I have been one of the fortunate few to have been exposed to the pleasure that a maxi provides. I’d rather, as one up, ride my 03 silver-wing than any heavy clutched bike on the market today. Let them laugh at me while I feel only pity for them, for they do not know.

I just looking into a honda silver wing. My question would be, since the tires are so small, how is the ride on bad hwy surfaces in upper speed? I would commute on the Hwy (four lane hwy 70 mph speed limit) for about 16 miles. Bussy traffic in the morning and evening. I believe that the silver wing keeps up with the rolling traffic. But how is it on not so good hwy asphalt? How is it with side winds? How noisy is it behind the shield? Thank you
@Howlinwolfreviews

In my limited experience with the swing it has performed very well at 70 mph. The smaller wheel size has proven not to be a factor. As far as the noise behind the glass, it is easy on the ears. As far as keeping up with traffic it blows the doors off traffic Lots of power.

Mine SW is sweating underneath the engine a little bit. Not much oil but at 25k miles should not happen. Anyone has same issues? Update: All SW are dripping sooner or later oil between the rubber that holds cable to the alternator. All SW have this issue if you see oil coming from the right side of the alternator cover.

The honda silvering seems to be one of those girls in highschool that wasn't really pretty, but just good enough to make you want to jump on and ride her and when you did, it was actually really good and easier then you thought it would be, and of course then you went and told your buddies.........im sorry that was pathetic.
