They've got to offer this as a crate engine! Imagine the airboats, airplanes, dune buggies, jet boats, etc that this could power! I hope it's crossplane so it sounds good!
Great job, well done GWM. Excellent engineering with a lot of Chinese culture elements such as the headlights symbolizing the Chinese lion dance. The final price tag definitely will be lower than the Goldwing but shouldn't be too much cheaper.
No need to apologize, the grace of youth leaves us all eventually. Trike kits just let us hold onto that joy of riding when our bodies arn't up to the task anymore. I just hope i'm as spirited when i hit my golden years.
If it's going to beat Honda they have to meat the quality of Honda and no Chinese rubbish, and substantially cheaper than Honda. Dealership in europe/germany ? and all that goes with it? Questions that needs answers.
Having recently bought a brand new honda 125 for commuting to work and watching it rust away , comments on here about honda quality make me laugh. Back in the day honda did mean quality now it means pot luck . Good luck china
Not in a million years would I own this motorcycle. It's a good looking motorcycle and the quality is probably good (Maybe). The reason I wouldn't own this bike is because made in China, and for the same reason's I don't do or have a TikTok subscription, is the same reason's I would never buy this bike. Do you trust China enough to pair your phone with a Chinese made motorcycle. This bike has a ton of electronics on it and don't be surprised that as soon as you pair your phone with this bike for Google Maps, WAZE or Pandora, you discover that everything on your phone just went directly to Beijing - Almost every person today keeps their entire life on their smart phone and if I'm right kiss your privacy goodbye. Why do you think that the U.S. government is moving to remove TikTok, it's over privacy and because of the sneaky things China is doing. American's thinking of this motorcycle be warned and be very cautious before you buy.
Maybe this will light a fire under Honda. I hoped they would add 2 more cylinders to the 1500 to make it 8-cyl 2000cc. Instead, Honda has milked the 1835 for 25yrs. I wonder what tax the USA feds will apply to this. So far, I'm not impressed with the quality of Chinese products, similar to Japanese products of the 50's n early 60's.
I would like to see someone willing to step into the ring and be a legitimate competitor to the Goldwing again, i agree Honda has grown a bit complacent at the top of the pyramid, and its prices and lack of much innovation reflects that; but i'd also be lying if i said i thought moving up to 8 cylinders was a improvement, or that i think the S 2000 is up to the challenge. Its Souo's first bike, Cosmetically i like what its got going for it, but mechanically its bound to have issues, and it carries the stigma of being a Chinese bike, which i'm hoping it doesn't live down to the expectations that sets. but realistically i think its going to have to overcome that stigma by proving its reliability and longevity, customer support and service centers can actually hold a candle to Honda before it gets taken seriously enough to be considered a rival. at the current price point of the wing, i think this would have to be significantly cheaper to get people to take that kind of gamble on reliability.
Horizontally opposed eight-cylinder eight-speed DCT!
Looks like an eagle. I like it!
well done china.i want one
I look forward to seeing one on the road.
As a motorcycle mechanic and Gl1500 Goldwing rider I would really like to put one to the test
Wow...what a sound...

I think it will be priced around $25,000 US dollars. That would be competing against all big touring bikes. I am interested in taking this for a ride.
Honda wake up!!!!
Linda demais...simplesmente um espetáculo.
This looks like a updated Yamaha Eluder. Like damn they didnt even try to hide it
This is a serious motorcycle.
Please tell me when they are available in the UK.

I heard it will be around 28,000.
So why would I buy it if the price difference to the real thing is only marginal?
好漂亮的加菲貓外型❤❤❤
Looks like Yamaha's recent v twin touring bike
Would make an awsome trike ( sorry im old and stiff)😞

its their insane take on the yamaha venture, if only they still sold them.
Don't worry Honda, this will most definitely not stand the test of time...nothing to see here.
$15.000
No clutch lever
8 Speed DCT.
Star Venture? Transcontinental? I think yamaha already did this...

And china already has the sales and service infrastructure in place, walmart. I can see rockets next
The most disappointed is the stering bar is so so ugly not as good as goldwing

people in China are just people , same as any other country. I have been 38 times. Don't hold them responsible for the politics.

Driving a gwm sedan for 8 years now in ecuador, bad roads,bad fuel, the car is like new, not a single issue so far

Why change something that is perfect already?
Winnie the pooh @@matthijsschutter7031
it looks like an inflated inflatable boat with positive pressure. It probably rides like a frog with a straw up its ass when inflated
Replica honda😅
I would never buy a Chinese motorcycle, for the same reason I would never vote for trump, I don't support enemies of the American people.
Yamaha copy !!
what？
