Honda Gold Wing | Used Bike Review

Chris has been back to M&P for another used bike review, this time, it's a Honda Gold Wing. Can he be won over by the comfortable heated armchair?

There are some great reasons why Guy Martin owns, and loves riding, a Gold Wing I think Chris just did a good job of explaining it all 😉

I meet you once and to be honest your as genuine in real life as you are on YouTube big fan of yours😊

The Gold Wings sold in the UK have the steering wheel on the wrong side.

I'm a sports bike rider, and a biker for 40 years. I bought a 2005 Goldwing. I toured 2 up with all the luggage and woman's stuff including a tank bag, from north east UK to Australia and back, I also toured all of Ireland. I had no aches or pains. 500 miles UK riding on my old hayabusa or my current zx14 I'm was crippled. I had the Goldwing 12 years, while touring.. fantastic touring bike. Look at vids on YouTube of how to pic up a Goldwing properly without effort, not the ball breaker way you did it lol.. good vlog though.

If you buy a 20 year old Goldwing, as I did, check the air filter. It's probably still on the original one as it's right in the middle of the bike and needs major surgery to get at it. Otherwise it's pretty easy to work on, and is a fantastic bike. Most of them have been 'babied' their entire lives, as they are generally owned by older guys who know a thing or two about comfort and reliability. After five previous bikes, it's the last bike I'll ever buy, and I'm not upset at that!

Zack and Ari that host Revzilla today have made a video in the past where they are touring on bikes the size of the Honda goldwing and each have a motorcross on a trailer hooked to the touring bikes 🤙🏾.

I ride a lot of miles with my partner on the back, when I first got into motorcycling I always said the exact same "Just get a car!"
After going for a back and butt breaking journey through Norway on a Vulcan 650 with luggage and two people I decided to explore the big touring bike world as the group I ride with is affectionatly known as "The Goldwing group"..

Ended up with a GV1400 (Suzuki's weird version of a Goldwing) and putting down almost over 50.000km in about two years.
It's been to Austria, Slovenia, Norway (Up to Trondheim, time is limited.. sadly), Central France, etc.. it's a joy!
They're pig-heavy but you can use that weight to make them corner, unlike the 1800 though the frame is a wet noodle and you can't just adjust course on a whim.

For anyone on the fence/hating them, please.. keep on buying other bikes. It makes my GL1800/GL1500 a little cheaper when my garage is finally expanded :)

Very fair review. I got a lovely white 2015 one with 11500 miles on it a couple of months ago and love it! Great engine roar on acceleration and the handling is surprisingly brilliant!

[davidhardstaff]

Never 😅wanted one. Test drove one for a bit of fun. Now I own one, nuff said.

[shawnjoseph]

I bought it's everything I ever needed

I was like you and made fun of the Wing in my earlier riding days, but after 20+ yrs of riding and 20 bikes prior, I picked up a '15 GW F6B Deluxe and have fell in love with it over the last 1.5 years I have owned it. I have made it my "do-it-all" bike, commute on it daily as well as any fun or long rides! I like that I can sit, stand, or stretch my legs on hwy pegs. I also love that I can fit my HJC helmet in the left saddle bag (pannier)!

[volodymyrshoniia]

I've been waiting for wheelies and skids the whole time

[SunyJim]

I started on a 750 cruiser, and went to a 1500 cruiser. But i must say after going to a Goldwing i've done more long distance trips much further than i've ever thought I would travel on a bike. It's been reliable, comfortable, and my passenger absolutely approves as well. 2 week trip for 2 of us travelling eastern Canada 4000km. Done no problems

[jamesmuller]

I love my Goldwing, yes it is heavy but the weight is low and there is plenty of power. The air cleaner is the only hassle with regards to servicing, Thanks for the video.

[soujrnr]

Thanks for a great review! I absolutely LOVE my Gold Wing! I started riding in 1982 and nothing has been better than the Wing! It can also be ridden like a sport bike because it will handle whatever you can throw at it. It isn't a speed demon, nor is it meant to be, but it'll keep up in the twisties! It has no problems with peg scraping turns, hairpin turns, or any other kind of turn. It is the finest all-around bike I've ever ridden! The only reason I'd get a different bike is if I get too weak to be able to handle it's weight as I get older. In the meantime, it's the Gold Wing for the win!!

[gordonwrichert]

the Honda Goldwing is the best bike there is they are legendary and cant be beat they run for ever with simple maintance

[jamesrennie]

I'm a sport bike fan but Goldwings will always have a place in my heart..

[mikewoodward]

Thanks for this review I’ve just gone and bought one🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

[hopalong]

Very cool. I really like these used reviews. I'd love you to do more bikes of a similar era / price to the TL1000s you guys looked at... For example: Tuono gen 1, cb900f hornet, stuff like that

[ahppa]

I love that. There is definitely a guilty pleasure with "giving up" all the "fun" parts of motorcycling and gaining all the "boring" parts, yet I can't help but think "that's a cool bike" and want to give it a go!
