The slow speed balance, clutch, throttle and brake control skills I had to develop for off-road translated to a whole new level of control on any bike I rode. So if these drills and practice bore or don't excite a rider they can get a dirt bike and some bruises 😎

A friend of mine just did it on his 2018 manual and in the one test ride he did after the tune he called me and just said WOW, what a difference. Needless to say, I ordered one for my 2021 manual. Unfortunately, the ODB2 cables are on back order so who knows when I'll get it. Those that have done the tune say it's not just the top speed, but throttle response is much smoother, and Sport mode is no longer twitchy. I've owned two Harley's and did tunes on both of them. I'm an HP and torque junkie, give me as much as I can handle and afford. Great video.

The restrictions doesn’t minimize the dangers of them. How and what we chose to do with them is what the bigger concern is. None of us that ride motorcycles are risk adverse. We take calculated risks once we ride. I am a performance guy but do try to minimize the risk as much as possible.

    Thanks for the shout-out Rich 😉 I'm 56 years old and a hard rider on or off-road... I use this this gen6 Wing for touring with my wife and an occasional solo rip. The majority of my road routes are on the back and secondary roads, I actually dislike highway riding and stay off them as much as possible. So I use the Wing exactly like a "sport-tourer" and its fantastic in this role comfortable, nimble and powerful. That said, the BT Moto flash as totally enhanced my riding experience on the Goldwing. The bike responds better, is smoother on and off the throttle and has more power over the full(expanded) rpm range. I run in Tour mode 95% of my riding because it works so well. Sport mode is just a hoot now, its not the jerky, unusable, chassis upsetting mess it was stock, BT Moto's tune unleashed the full aggressiveness of the engine without ruining the Wing's ride-ability😎. I was on tour at the end of June in those 100+ degree temps fully loaded with my wife aboard, we rode 2200 miles, the Wing never flinched or missed a beat. I got 42-43mpg riding hard and passing a lot😁 For me I don't care what dyno #'s are, I'm only concerned with how the bike runs and feels. There is no doubt a BT Moto tuned Goldwing is far better optimized vs. stock. Whoa! that's a lot of blabbing ..,🤣but you got a free preview of my final review video.

    While your first reaction might be to laugh, my Kawasaki W800 has something in common with your GoldWing (my dream bike!). Unfortunately, that commonality is the absence of aftermarket tuning parts. I shouldn't say unfortunately, because in a number of ways, it's actually a very good thing. The two things that I can get for my bike, easily, is an aftermarket exhaust system and a power commander with a custom tune. I investigated this and decided not to proceed. I'm taking the time here to explain why as it's something that you might want to be aware of (or not) when considering a tune as an option for your bike. There is no doubt about it, the tune for the W800 flattened out the power and torque curve of the bike and it added a couple of bhp. and a couple of ft.lbs. of torque all the way through the curve. And high up in the rev range, it piled on the power and the torque. All good things, you'd have to say, and I would agree. So why didn't I follow through? Firstly, I rarely venture into the upper rev range of the bike and when I do, it's mainly downshifting for more engine braking and occasional overtaking, but for the roads that I ride on, the latter isn't much of a consideration. Secondly. While the tune on the W800 flattens out the torque curve, would I ever notice it. The torque curve is already a work of art from a tuning perspective. There just aren't any perceptible "hiccups". And it's only picking me up 2 or 3 horsepower throughout the rev range that I typically ride in...2k-5.5k. Thirdly. It was all going to cost a lot of money. I'm in Australia so I'll convert for US dollars. My bike cost about $5,500 US. A set of pipes, which aren't easy to come by, the tuner and time at a tuning shop was going to add another $2k UD to that. That's about $1000 per hp, the way I operate the bike. If it were a third of that cost, I would have gone there, but it wasn't. This all brings me to my ultimate point. Squiggly lines on a piece of paper or a computer monitor can be scaled in such a fashion that barely perceptible gains look much bigger than they are. I'm not suggesting that this is deliberate, but it's something to be aware of. Read the numbers, don't look at the lines. Everybody only looks at the lines! Be the one that looks at the numbers and interpret them as how they will most likely relate to your riding style. At the end of the day, your tuning man is a seller. You're the customer. Caveat Emptor. I've just proof read my post and I can see that it would be easy to interpret as being negative toward the tune. Don't take it as that at all! I'm just trying to encourage you to think outside the box and with a bit better perspective. Hopefully a tune can add a lot to your bike. Best wishes and good luck from Down Under.

      Great stuff and fully appreciate your perspective. In your case and at that cost I to wouldn’t do it. The dyno shop that I intend to use is local with no skin in the game. $75 dollars just to peak my curiosity on the numbers. I am aware that doing the pre and post on different day with different conditions can skew the numbers but oh well. Hopefully a shop that isn’t affiliated with BT MOTO would not manipulate the numbers. Great stuff. Thanks for watching and that insightful comment. Ride safe.

    I don't think Gen 5 has a governor, because we both had ours up to 120, without realizing it. We were in Death Valley NP and at that speed , they were smooth as silk.

    We were two of the youngest people in GWRRA and definitely the youngest chapter directors on the planet. Before we purchased our first wings, we also said it was an old-person bike. But, once we rode it...Oh well, we became old people too. lol. We have Gen 5 and love them.

    Watched a clutch repair video here on UA-cam. Seems like a DIY job in the garage with few tools. Maybe I’m wrong.

      The videos I watched showed extensive damage. Looked quite involved to me. I think I am pretty handy when it come to mechanics but a little to complex for me.

      @@richthereturnrider6737 Ok I guess we will have to wait and see what happens then. I'm really surprised he wasn't part of over seeing quality control. He would have had to give them money to start production. If it was my business I probably would have had at least one exhaust given to me to prove the process. I mean he already had at least one done. The manufacture would then build a fixture or 2 or more to replicate the process. I used to build after market Buell exhausts with another guy and that's how we did it. Made a fixture so we could replicate them exactly. Sent them all over the country and never had any problems.

    There's Nothing Like A Harley, And There's Nothing Like A Goldwing... I Just Feel I Get More Of A Hot Rod Experience From The My Harley, My Road Glide Looks Good, Sounds Great And Is Very Comfy... I'm A 6'5" Rider And I Feel More Cramped On The Goldwing... But The Wing Is A Very Reliable Bike... The Craftsmanship Of A Harley Is Amazing ... That Wing Is A Helluva Bike But HD All Day For Me.
