My brother has had one for almost 10 years. Tows a color matched Uni-GO trailer behind it.
You're going to start finding those cheap, as current riders are turning on to the new K1600 touring bikes.
K1200LT is a lot like the Gold Wing. It's HEAVY, and hard to maneuver at low speeds. IF the Gold Wing is the Cadillac of touring bikes, the K1200LT is the Mercedes, the RT a Jaguar.

You don't have to do that...
Just keep your eyes and ears open. Some of the options Bob talks about are good, but if you really like and desire a Goldie, a trike version might be more to your liking. Far more stable, less fatiguing, you don't have to worry about reaching the ground when you stop!Attachments

Wow talk about Honda catering to the lazy!
The GW is just about the size of a small car!

I was wondering how much energy putting it in 'R' was costing people over the course of the day.

Same league as a g wing. :shrug:

I am so very blessed
Not really.. Gold Wing BASE price is $23k, BMW RT Base price is $17K.. You can get a fully loaded RT for less than the base price of a Gold Wing. Fully loaded Gold Wing you're pushing $30 - 33k.

Right but, Nanny Pam was thinking BMW's were more expensive. I was saying they are in the same league and, you are right, GW's are even higher so, we're making the same point, you more accurately than me.
I've seen GW's on the floor for low 20's and bobs has (had a loaded k1300 LT (or GT?) GORGEOUS machnine) in the low 20's. It's kinda close.

But K bikes aren't REAL BMW's... If it doesn't have BIG jugs.. NOT a REAL BMW..

Is that right? So, even among the elite-ism and snobbery of BMW world, there are ever more prejudices within that rarefied community?
