Now ride it today with the new geometry and engine. Sublime. Life is good.

Like watching paint dry

Wow.

Too close to the yellow line for my liking. Best advice I ever got was to NOT hug the center line. Watch how many other riders and cars going the other way do the same.

Guy in front braking through every corner, lay off brakes an use gearing an rpm, counter steering through turns. Start slow enough he doesn't need to brake through corners, then gradually increase speed to continue laying off brakes!

And never under estimate how slippery the white and yellow tape is!! 😬😬

ya know this ain't nothing compared to the hwy 16 in virginia,, back of the dragon ,between taswell and Marion va

Total BS. Tell en Fuck off

And here is a link to some well ridden Goldwings..... th-cam.com/video/XD4Ey0EVPdw/w-d-xo.html

More riders who can't position correctly for bends and then turn in too soon, hence going wide on right handers. Watch this and learn. th-cam.com/video/pmYh1FWYtUA/w-d-xo.html

when they tell me that i say just try to keep up sonny lol

Only 480p? How cheesie!

I'm sorry but I don't get it. Margin of error is zero. Irresponsible riding should not be applauded, especially when you can harm others seriously.

loved it

Nice ride with great sound! I like the view from the camera mount.

Yeah well... the bike is performant enough but this is juist cruising corners. You got some torque but the heavy handling and most of all the ridiculous road clearance force you to corner like that. Nothing you can do... it's the limitations of that bike.

beautifull man!just beautifull! an that engine sound!!!perfect!😁

they r great bikes that's for sure. on that road its all about the riders skill level. ive seen a Goldwing go very quickly through the dragon before. look up yellow wolf and you will see what I mean.

Unbelievable. Spamming our roadways now by first violating your rights. They do not have a right to stop you for this reason!!!

I don't know Mike, I have an Ultra Classic and an "old man's bike " is what I call it. I also have an R6 and a 1400 Suzuki Intruder and an 83 Wing with a sidecar. The big bikes weigh more and aren't as easy to throw around but I ride lots of long trips and I sure do appreciate the road sofa, along with the CD player and the cruise control. I also appreciate the storage there. I don't understand why some guys think there is only one kind of motorcycle to ride and if you aren't on it there is something wrong with your testicle size or something. I want to ride every one that I see.

LoL…why does everyone have to call this an "old man" bike or a Road Sofa….Just bought one myself. Been riding a cruiser last 12yrs and I can say this Wing handles 10times better than my Shadow Sabre and would leave it in the dust..LOL…it's a great machine and We anticipate(me and wife) having some great experiences on it just as this right here on the Dragon. I'm whipping thru curves faster than I ever have on my Sabre…and if 50 is old…I guess I'm old..LOL Great Vid Allen! and I'm keeping the Cruiser as well…I guess so I can feel young? LOL..Righhhhhht...

THanks for the video!! Looks great and I really wanted to see something besides crashes and "getting owned" by the dragon! As for these dumb asses that are hatin on you. F*** them! You never once said this was a sport ride, a competition or oh yea, yet another stupid video of fools going way to fast trying to prove they have a bigger package than the next guy! You never said it was a training video or a fn how to... you just had the graciousness to share! so for that, I say THANK YOU! Ignore those assholes below... Why? Cause they don't matter!!

Nice video and cruise, what a day to remember! Ignore the haters, if it isn't your bike they're trashing it's your riding. They are compelled to do this to feel better than you in their own eyes. They are small people.

Great vedio, I just back into riding and love my GW. Heck I like all bikes but cant afford them all. One thing I will not do is bad mouth a rider or his bike. May one day I'll get lucky and win the lotto. Remember the cagers dont care about us let alone watch for us. I'll end with, live to ride, love the ride, ride safe, wear your helmet, safety gear, but most of all enjoy the ride, watch your 360 for cagers.

( i get it, )the insurance companies have had to pay out the highest in these areas,so many accidents they want to see if the drivers are just bad, or neurolodgically impaired. retarded bad drivers...OR because they had a chemical spill years ago and want to see how its affecting people genetically years down the road.. anyhow wouldnt you want to know if an oooops damaged the people in an area? like dont marry a girl from that area your kid may get defects,and the march of dimes ran out of dimes to loan to you?????id wanna know after all st clair is close to anniston depot hummm, man you can go anywere with this....ill think tank it with an attorney and see what developes.

Allen - Nice riding! Some people don't know or appreciate what it's like to handle a 950 lb. bike WITH a rider. Good Job!

One of the nicer relaxing videos of the Tail of the Dragon, especially if one wants to show a video to someone who hasn't been there before. Quite enjoyable not seeing the riders crossing yellow lines at every opportunity. I do, however, have to agree with ZX6Rider as to age and Goldwings... I'm 50 and not even close to giving up my ZX6R-636 for a touring bike. (Although I quite enjoy a leisurely ride on my wife's Burgman 650 "scooter" from time to time.) There are many places in the area where it's nice to sit in a relaxed position and take in the scenery... IMHO, the Dragon isn't one of them, it's the road and only the road that is the attraction.. :)

very nice sound,,great ride

Wow pretty sloppy riding. I suggest you read some books by David Hough before you get hurt. FYI I have 37 years experience riding - over 500,000 miles.

Looks like a nice relaxing ride through the woods, about what you would expect from a road sofa. Nothing against the bike, ride what you love but I mean put the title as "Cruising Deals Gaps" or something, not something misleading. And a side note: using your age as a reason to have a Goldwing is pretty lame, my father still refuses to give up his sport bike in his late 50s!

I want to see a speedo reading. Things look a lot faster closer to the ground.

Bike sound nice. Is there an aftermarket exhaust on it?

Come on! There is something else going on. If they simply wanted random samples of drivers they should have gone to a mall parking lot. Since when do we allow a Private company to do a road block with privately paid uniformed police officers? I would suggest maybe they are also testing for the road blocks to move in the private sector, maybe they would get paid per offense then they ship them off to their private jail. Might as well check credit to see if they defaulted on credit and lock them up for that.

WAS DONE BY GOVERNMENT. NBC NEWS INVESTIGATED

WAS DONE BY GOVERNMENT AND ANYONE THAT SAYS DIFFERENT I SUSPECT MAY BE WORKING FOR THEM AS WELL

They sure did pick a compliant & credulous candidate to interview about it. She would probably do whatever any authority figure asks of her & anything at all for $60! I've seen another woman interviewed who felt outraged at being flagged off the road, on her busy lunch hour & detained to be asked to "voluntarily" participate in such a way that she felt complelled to choose the breathylizer just so she could leave ASAP.

Givem DNA im their face!

No reason not to brake in turns unless you don't have the skill to properly trail brake. The MSF teaches you not to do so because most riders aren't going to benefit by doing so and it can cause more trouble than benefit. On most streets, you can simply brake before the turn and be fine. On tighter roads and especially with reducing radius curves, trail braking can serve to settle the bike and allow higher entry speeds. Nice ride!

Man that was an awsome display of riding skills in my opinion. Not only on a big@$$ goldwing but with a passenger.

This video would make a great Honda commercial.

Nice engine sound, muted to be sure, but lots of potential with the right aftermarket pipes. Was the chase/camera vehicle a 6 cylinder Goldwing, as well?

I have always wanted to do that ride, would have been easier to get there when I lived in Virginia. My only quibble, is that camera view does show how often the lead bike is Braking In The Curve no no no :-( :-(

To see what this video would be like if the GL1800's were of the fastest color..aka YELLOW, speed this video up at least 25%

11miles, 318 curves, 1 gear (1st)......

If it's truly VOLUNTARY, what are the consequences of REFUSING to give DNA? Could people just drive off into the sunset? Or is their personal ID taken (Driver's License, License Plates, etc)?

what a great way to inject people!!! I call bullS*** on this one too!!!!! $60 bucks... what a crock!! it's none of their business what medication I take!!! If I drink, etc... if I am sober driving, I too would give them the big hawaiian good luck symbol!!

Remember the open container law you idiots thought was a good idea ? You are probably creaming your jeans over this.

Scams always start with a survey. I smell bull s**** . She better get her blood tested now by a legitimate doctor.

wtf ? They would get the finger from me.

:_: My grandpa has a GORGEOUS Goldwing and I've been secretly praying he'll retire from riding in the near future and let me take 'er out for a spin. This would be my first major trip.
