In the United States in the late 1970s, the road cruise car model was very popular with the public, in 1979 BMW and Harley introduced the R100RT and TourGlide with fairing and side box respectively, Honda also added fairings and side boxes to the flagship model Gold Wing in 1981, and the brands opened the prelude to the large luxury road touring car ~ ~ Honda In order to meet the needs of mid-displacement players, Honda added the same fairing and side box as the Gold Wing on the basis of the CX500 model. And named GL500 Silver Wing Interstate~
Today's silver wing simplified, throwing off a body of "extra meat", back to the "strong and strong" moment of the year ~ ~ it is undeniable that the appearance of this car and the Ducati Scramber are very similar, even the color matching is the same, but the V-shaped transverse V cylinder + shaft transmission of the characteristics of its durability is much better than the Ducati Scrabler, far away to see the blackened rear wheel and the back rocker arm fused together, there is a kind of single rocker illusion ~ ~
