Hi badgolferman,

You just made my point perfectly for me, in that I don't know a damn thing
about Honda bikes - so I don't even know myself if it's a Gold Wing or not.

I see Honda advertises at their bike site it as a "Gold Wing"...
<https://powersports.honda.com/motorcycle/touring/gold-wing>

But your point is well taken that I don't know a damn thing about
GoldWings/Goldwings, and you can tell because I don't know the terms.

Yet.... 

I do know the difference between "riding" a bike and "driving" it.
As do you.

Anyone using the term "driving" a bike is a noob so if they then claim to
know everything about it (as the Apple trolls do for so many things), then
they're just posers.

Which is my point.

These Apple trolls  (Lewis, Jolly Roger, Alan Baker, Alan Browne, Chris,
Haemactylus, Joerg Lorenz, JF Mezei et. al) merely parrot Apple marketing.

They don't actually know anything - about anything.
