I've been wondering about getting a bagger (big touring motorcycle) for several years now. The Goldwing was supposed to be the solution but it was just too old, clunky and just plain dangerous. I don't think I'm really going to buy anything but have narrowed it down to a Harley Road King, a big BMW GS (see photo), a Honda Valkyrie or maybe an old Motoguzzi Eldorado (or the new Guzzi touring bike)
Then I ran into a few articles about people touring on Maxi-Scooters like the Honda Silverwing and the Suzuki Burgman. These things are like riding your couch around. I've always said I would never own an automatic anything but I have to admit that I'm intrigued and have been scanning Craigslist. And that is always how it starts:

I like the El Dorado, but how much do those go for?
Aren't the Beemers too tall for the likes of us?
You could also get one of the mega-scooters and trick it out Japanese Mafia style.
Just get something you can ride down the coast to visit the nieces.
