I find the insinuation that loud pipes save lives as humorous. But that's off topic, isn't it.
That is their personal choice. I've ridden goldwing and it wasn't my cup of tea. Too heavy, too big, and if you drop will need a crane to lift it up. Great on open highway will eat miles like there is no tomorrow. With respect to bimmers had R1150 for a while.. MPG sucks about what you get in Mirage, too wide for lane splitting and aircooled engine is liability in traffic. Expensive to buy or fix and a group of owners not to be part of. "Is it OK to use non-bmw oil in BMW?"
