Two great bikes that are both very good at what they do.

Yup ... as Randy noted the Wing is a great bike for a Luxo Touring bike and it won that category over they years.  But that Luxo touring segment is slowly dying and the adventure segment is taking off like the Luxor touring segment did in the 80's and 90's.  But you really can't compare the 2 bikes. 

 

On a related not I was in the Motorcycles of Greensboro dealer today and spent about 90 minutes chatting with a buddy who works there.  He mentioned that the grey GSA has now become quite popular when it had been a very slow seller in past year.  Interesting how time change and tastes change.

If only the Terminator had been on a GS instead of a FatBoy!

I always thought they were a nice looking back in the mid 70's and then just got very strange (IMHO). But when the latest version came out I sat on one and I really liked it.
