Yellow Wolf is a well known contributor/rider on the GL1800 forum and lives in somewhere near that area so he's very familiar with every curve in that road. Not to mention he is extremely well skilled at pushing his GL1800 to its limits. I have a 2008 Goldwing parked in the garage and the most remarkable difference in terms of sensation between the XF and the GL1800 is in the twisties. On the bike the lean angle can be extreme (as shown in the clip above) while the XF remains planted perpendicular to the pavement. Although opposite, I'm sure both are somehow good for my mental health. At least that's what I tell my wife.
