I have owned three gold wings. Awesome bikes. They are made for the highway. Drag racing the Goldwing. It's kind of like a bodybuilder running the hundred yard dash. It's out of its element

Have you ridden a ‘21 Wing? I have a non-tour and that thing absolutely SCREAMS. It’s almost scary how fast this bike is. Only complaint is tapping that rev limiter so early, this thing pulls like it’s still got another 5k worth of revs in the band

Goldwing rider isn't the best at launching, I have a 2010 Goldwing and i wiegh in at about 6'5 360lbs and I have run 13.5's consistantly a lighter driver with a good launch should be able to do a 13.2-13.3 not ot bad for a cruiser that weighs 850lbs

I would have bet on the Wing with it's displacement and FI in 6 opposed cylinders. However, the 1300cc V4 Venture has a double overhead cam and 4 valves per head. Wing is only a SOHC and 2 valves per head.

The (older) V-max engine is a modified Venture engine. If memory serves correct, all you need are the cams, carbs, & induction system from the V-max to wake up the Venture engine. I'm old so I'm not sure about the new stuff.

I wish someone made performance parts for the Wing engine. While not really needed for a touring bike, it'd be nice to have an option. Kinda answered my own question I guess. Why would anyone spend the R&D time to build something very few would want to buy. Thinking Rune performance I guess...which is already pretty darn good already.
@KurNorock
5 жыл бұрын
The 2014-15 valkyrie has better than rune performance. Same power to weight ratio and 0-60 time as a Porsche 911 GT3. Unfortunately, it is a cruiser version of the goldwing and only old men who buy bikes that look 60 years old even though they were made yesterday buy cruisers, so the valkyrie didn't sell well. You can actually still find them brand new at dealerships 5 years later for about $8k to $10k. Great bike though. I bought one and I can't get enough of it.

Well, yes they do, but not as much is a gold wing

Pretty average for street riders who aren't used to making hard launches used in drag racing. A good rider can get through the quarter in the mid to high 12's on an 1800, and the low 13's on a 1500. I doubt if I could make that but a skilled rider can. Almost every test the magazines did on the 1800 that included 1/4 mile testing would come out less than 13 seconds in the quarter.

I was having some trouble on my standard (naked) GL1100 keeping up with a friend. I was beginning to think something was wrong with the old Wing. I had to keep the revs between 5k & 8k to keep him from pulling away. After the ride he said he was thinking about selling his & I could tell he was a bit discouraged. Tbh, I was feeling the same way about the Wing. I never had that much trouble keeping up with another bike before. His bike was a Suzuki Bandit-S 1200, I didn't realize until I researched later that it's Q-mile specs are 11.15s @ 121 mph. No wonder. I don't feel so bad now but still want more. Would like to pop in some cams from a '77, a turbo, and a lighter battery. A CBR1000 got past me the other day when I was getting on it.
