I had limited experience and we have snow here now, so I likely won't be riding now until sometime in Mar/Apr.
However, I did ride a few stretches of highway in the local area and I found it cruises nicely. No, it's not a Goldwing and I can't offer any comparison as I've never ridden a Goldwing.
Anyway, it's powerful enough to find yourself breaking the law all too easily and I'm confident it will be a very decent adventure touring bike. I already warned my wife that I'll be taking it north to the Yukon next summer, possibly D2D in Dawson City. That will be a 5-6,000 km multi-day round trip.
Compared to my more torquey but similarly powered 1200 Scrambler, I'd drop down a gear for passing at times. I didn't find that an issue - just different. Cruise control (as many have said) would be nice but Veridian Cruise in Calgary are developing a solution as we speak and I expect they'll have product choices ready for the 2024 riding season.
I've read reviewers say that there's a power band that comes in at 8.5k (?I think) but I'm still in the break in 'ride conservatively' period. I can tell you it moves when you want it to though.
The ergonomics seem to work very well for me, including the standard windshield - but that's all down to individual preference. The jury is out on the budget suspension but I think it will be fine for me and the type of riding I'll be doing.
I have the 12v outlet, heated grips and rad grill fitted and have an SW-Motech skid plate on order. I would have bought Barkbusters but they're not currently available in Canada so I have some cheap alternatives that should be here any day and I'll see how they work out as an interim solution. If not, I've only wasted $40.
Other than that, I have to find a 'budget friendly' solution that enables me to use my soft panniers. Something like this, maybe ...
I don't have any plans to accessorize beyond those basics.
