Mini Goldwing!

Post by MrGrumpy »

Just came across this - Honda have introduced a mini-Goldwing version of the PCX complete with integrated topbox and panniers! ! Presumably for some Far East markets only...



It is in someways a bit daft, but I do like it!

I like it a lot, but a 160cc is a bit small, maybe 250 or 400. Having said that the proof of the pudding and all that.

Nice one Grumpy. Liking that. As Knight says, might be even nicer with a bigger motor but thinking that 11.8kw's from it's 160cc engine isn't too bad. It's a cruiser after all & country roads will no doubt be a pleasure with that motor. You don't need big motors though to have a lovely day long adventure going cross country. That's why bikes like the Honda Supercub do so we'll. Nice!
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

Been riding for 54 years & owned too many bikes to list here...

Agreed, but two up through the Yorkshire dales plus forty miles of motorway to get there, it's going to struggle. I was thinking of the sort of use I would put it to. Now maybe with a nice leccy motor with loads of low down torque.

Its clearly aimed at a particular Far Eastern market, who go for small capacities and for whom the 160cc size makes sense. For Europe a Forza 350 version would make more sense.
