They changed the color of the paint.....again.... And raised the price......again... I have just scheduled a test ride on a 2010 Goldwing for Monday...... gotta replace the 2007 RSV I just totaled as Yamaha did NOT use the 2nd gen VMax motor in the 2011 RSV :( :( :( :( :( Wish me luck at the Honda dealership.

Good luck! I have any and all foot positions on mine resolved..The more you ride it the more you will LOVE it..Watch the curves,I countersteered hard like I did on my RSV and dang near lost it..takes just a twitch of the butt and you are in and out of a curve.
FreezyRider Posted September 1, 2010 #3 Posted September 1, 2010 Wow. The Star is imploding...... How sad. MSRP over $20k.....wow, what are they thinking???
csogbk Posted September 1, 2010 #4 Posted September 1, 2010 Kite which dealer are you test riding the Wing at? I went to the one near Waldorf this morning and looked at an 2010 base model Wing, I'm thinking of jumping ship too.....
uechi kid Posted September 1, 2010 #5 Posted September 1, 2010 I can't find a link for a USA page. Anyone have the URL?

The dealership in Harisonburg VA. if you go to the Honda website HERE you can find the test ride dealerships......
Guest tx2sturgis Posted September 1, 2010 #10 Posted September 1, 2010 The dealership in Harisonburg VA. if you go to the Honda website HERE you can find the test ride dealerships...... Let me call them and tell them you just trashed a bike...then you may not HAVE to test ride that thing!
ArcsSparks Posted September 1, 2010 #11 Posted September 1, 2010 For 20 large I can ride a Road King or Street Glide pretty much set the way I want. and since the RSTD is gone:( there won't be a new Yamaha in my furtue (Harley owns marketing maybe Yamaha needs to hire a few away
Guest scarylarry Posted September 1, 2010 #12 Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Wow. The Star is imploding...... How sad. MSRP over $20k.....wow, what are they thinking??? They ain't that is the problem, I was sitting on the sidelines waiting and hoping for a change.. Looks like I will have to do something else, just don't know what as of yet... Edited September 1, 2010 by scarylarry
steamer Posted September 1, 2010 #13 Posted September 1, 2010 Looks like they had a bunch of 2010 "s" models sitting around and are calling them 2011's.I work for a John Deere dealer,thats what JD does when they are getting ready to come out with a new model.They sell off everything they can before they reless the new model.Don't be surprised if yamaha comes out with the new model later this year.Or i could be way off base and they will cancel the touring line like kawasaki did.
