I'd wanted a Gold Wing for about as long as they've been manufactured even though I'd never ridden one. Well, I retired a couple of months ago and decided "Now's the Time!" So, checkbook in-hand, I started looking at used Wings in my area (South Carolina). A few days later, I found what I thought would be the perfect bike. I contacted the owner and made arrangements to test ride it w/ my wife. I stand 6'2" and weigh 230. After about 30 minutes on the bike my legs started to cramp up. The pegs are too far back and my legs are bent tight underneath me -- sort of like the guys who ride the crotch rockets. Really uncomfortable. Since then I've tried a second Wing: same problem. I'd still love to own one of these bikes but the leg position is a deal killer. Does anyone know a way to either move the pegs forward or the seat backward? Sure would appreciate any ideas you have. Thanks.
