A reverse kit? Guess that can be useful for some, but reversing two wheels seems like it will result in quite a few dropped bikes. IIRC, Honda used to have it on the goldwing

I'm sure we can also find a reverse light and a beeper... "BEEP BEEP, Vehicle reversing.." But no, some harleys and especially the goldwings you said above are ridiculously heavy machines man!

No doubt, a 2015 Goldwing curb weight is 904-933 pounds, and the 2016 HD Ultra limited is around 861 pounds

It's a lot of bike to be moving around by leg and arm!

I was at a Honda powersports shop several years ago and watched a service tech ride a Goldwing out of the service bay and park next to a recently traded in late model Harley fatboy. The tech got off of the Goldwing and forgot to put the centerstand down, ultimately dropping the bike on to the fatboy. It took 4 guys to pick the mess up, the way it fell was at such an odd angle that normal pickup techniques weren't possible... It just looked so heavy!

The larger BMW K series GLT bikes have reverse gears.

IIRC, the Boss Hoss bikes have a reverse gear.. with a 400+hp v8 engine, and ~1600 pound wet weight.. you'd definitely be skipping leg day at the gym.

I think if I had one and it toppled over.. I'd call in a crane.

Lol I don't sell it or would I use it but they pay good money for us to machine parts for it.
