Layout of 2018 Hossack Gold Wing

In this diagram, the new double wishbone Gold Wing looks more FF-able than I would have imagined. It looks as if one might be able to simply move the fuel tank elsewhere and modify the rear sub-frame in order to create a space for an FFer's derriere, and still have just about enough room for his or her feet behind the rear cylinder heards without having to bend the legs unduly.

it’s too big and heavy as a start point, and you need to sit much further forward than that for it not to feel you have a whole lot of mass out in front of you( learnt from the Delta ownership) As usual Paul , you have no idea about the real work involved in modifying something!!

feet position

Are your feet going to be either side of the engine? It's quite a wide engine that's all.

Feet behind the engine

Feet behind the engine – if anywhere. I thought I'd made that clear! PNB
