DonnyRudeDude Posted September 10, 2023 Share #5 Posted September 10, 2023 I really enjoy watching these Fort Nine videos, for me very educational and entertaining. I wonder how the Honda Goldwing horizontally opposed 6 cylinder engine would have been described and rated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It limits the lean angle. For a cruiser it can't be beat overall for smoothness, lower cog and it lasts like a car engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnyRudeDude Posted September 10, 2023 Share #7 Posted September 10, 2023 I can attest to the smoothness of the engine. I have a Honda Valkyrie interstate and the engine is very smooth. At the Valkyrie Riders site they have a video of the “Nickle Trick” posted where the engine is so smooth and free of vibration that a Nickle, standing up, placed on a flat surface of the engine will not fall over with the engine revving. Now, that’s smooth. I have no problem going into corners. I have scraped the hwy pegs a few times, attached to the engine guards. It doesn’t seem to be a serious problem, but I don’t drive that aggressively, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
