2012 Honda Gold Wing Tour: Day 1

The Honda Gold Wing is a veritable icon among touring motorcycles, offering an unrivaled blend of two-up luxury conveyance and a level of sporting prowess unheard of from a 900-pound bike.

Now we have on-board footage of American racer Genki Hagata calming a high-side at the Infineon Raceway in California.
