That might work on our host if they weren't locked in his wife's purse.Some 120VAC electrodes attached to yer nads will fix that.

I rode this thing once. Just once..
Told the old man there's something wrong with the shaft drive unit.
Of course, since it costs money to get it looked at in a shop, it went completely ignored.
Now it's broken down in backwoods Tennessee. He's gonna have to rely on Jim-Bob and Cletus to get it fixed right.

His mission was to ride the Natchez trail which runs from Nashville to Natchez, as a scouting mission to see if he wants to repeat the trip on a bicycle with a weed eater engine on it.

I'm in the Ren-Cass motel in Waynesboro, TN. $48.60. I didn't get far down the Trail when my final drive unit started growling. The one cycle mechanic in town has a new one he can put in it in the morning.
It was a nice trip while it lasted. Just needed a hoodie; no gloves or boots. 59-60 deg. Oncoming vehicles only every 5 mins on avg. I was doing the 50 mph limit on cruise control & got passed once. Kinda hilly, curvy & scenic.

He was supposed to be following the Natchez Trace Trail but somehow ended up in Vicksburg.

Are custom ratios possible? Like aftermarket?
A common complaint about Goldwings is they're geared too low for the highway.
my former Honda dealer, who would try to entice me into getting a wing, told me, the possibilities of tweaking out a wing are limitless..
I didn't even check. Not when uou can get zero mile takeoffs from trike conversions for less than a hundred bucks. I don't know that I'd consider them too low geared (except for 1st gear). I normally drop to 4th when playing in the curves to pick the revs up a bit.
Some suspension upgrades are available, and lots of seats and windshields. But very little in the way of engine mods. Just not enough of a market.

Not talking about the curves. That's where v-twin cruisers shine. I'm talking about cruising 70 (or faster) across flat, boring-ass Illinois, on the interstate.
My dad's yellow-wing is either 1500 or 1800cc. You don't need to scream that engine to maintain interstate speeds.
