WOW :jawdrop - my GW was [I]only[/I] 903.......
Unladen weight, incl. 90% fuel kg/lb:
319/703 (without pannier)
348/767 (incl. pannier, topcase)'
That 1,232 figure must be GVWR... rider+passenger+gear.
so... 150-ish less than a Goldwing.

In several of the photos, you can see lock cylinders toward the bottom of the inner panels of the fairing -- near the rider's shins. Any guesses as to what they are for? gloveboxes in the lowers? In the frame side tubes? Assess to the flux capacitors?
It's gonna be a looooong 6 months before the bike starts showing up in the flesh ...
let's see, I have about $10k in my /6, $21k in my GS.
If I ever went back to a full faired tourer the new GTL would be it.
It is a great looking motorcycle.
I just promised my bride of 40 years a new suv, maybe she would rather a GTL?

What appear to be pivoting air vents under the ends of the dash vents are nice touches, too.
Still don't like the trunk - hopefully it will grow on me.
Like the red paint.
Does it seem big
Can't wait to see one in person.
