Character: touring in great comfort
The Honda Gold Wing is built for days with many kilometres. You adjust the windscreen electrically in height and angle, and the settings can be saved. The side cases open at the push of a button and are hydraulically damped; the left case contains a USB-C socket for the pillion.
With the SMART Key you start the engine without taking the key out of your pocket. New is a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that keeps an eye on the tyres, and according to Honda the speakers also sound better at high speed.
