The Honda Gold Wing is one of the most popular and preferred touring motorcycles in the world. The motorcycle offers brilliant ergonomics, extensive features, powerful engine, reliability and excellent comfort for touring. The motorcycle is based on a die-cast, aluminium frame, suspended by a double-wishbone front suspension and a preload-adjustable pro-link mono-shock at the rear. The new Honda Gold Wing Tour will be available in a single DCT variant with a Gunmetal Black Metallic colour option.
The Gold Wing weighs a massive 390 kg and it’s not easy to manoeuvre around, it gets a creep forward and back function that helps in moving the huge motorcycle around at low speeds. For reference, this is similar to the low-speed reverse mode offered in electric scooters such as Ola, Ather and much more.
