So I get to work today and my friend handed me his April 2016 WingWorld Magazine. There are lots of partial pictures of Gold Wings, however in the picture there is an early 2000 Valkyrie Interstate. Additionally there is one other bike in the picture that can be mostly seen. It is ironic that the foremost leader in the touring motorcycle world, the loved "Goldwing" shows no full view of a Goldwing. The Interstate is a gorgeous machine at it's glory there among the other bikes.

Got my new WW in the mail Tuesday, I spotted the IS on the cover quickly. What really struck me was the inclusiveness of the 1500 GW, 1800 GW, Valkyrie, some kind of V-twin, and cargo trailers all in the same picture, especially on the front cover. It's definitely a different attitude. I've noticed too, as of late, numerous issues which have had several references to Valkyries in articles or advertisements.
A good move by the editorial staff as I see it.

Thanks for bringing it up.

Dang, you're right, got mine a few days ago and never noticed. I usually don't spend time looking at the cover so didn't see it. I find it amusing that it appears to be the only bike that's in full view.  Wink
