For many years, the flagship model of the Honda series has been a typical large-caliber, large-budget GL1800 Gold Wing. Reborn in 2018, the modern'Wing is by far the lightest and most refined. By 2021, we have made further improvements.
The changes in 2021 are mainly reflected in the improvement of the speakers on the two bicycles and the improvement of the rear seat comfort of the Gold Wing Tour.
For the Gold Wing and Gold Wing Tour, you can now release the new and improved stereo system to your neighbors when you go to work at 6am. They will like it. After riding the previous generation of bicycles, I can confirm that stereo is great at normal speed, but as the speed increases, you may encounter problems. At a speed of about 60 mph, it will be slightly distorted as it fights wind noise. It is said that the new unit provides good clarity and presence, which should help.
In addition to the internal and external changes, the standard bicycle has a new color, which is one of the strangest names ever. It is called Pearl Deep Mud, and frankly, it sounds like something you find in Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. The highest-spec Tour version is available in Gunmetal Black Metallic. If you like DCT, there is Candy Ardent Red.
In 2021, the top-level Gold Wing Tour also increased its luggage capacity, from 110 liters to 121 liters, and the back seat backrest-a place for idiots! – Modifications have also been made to this year’s bicycles. In any case, as far as I can see, it has not changed visually, and is said to be more relaxed and slightly tilted. The rider and passenger seats on the tour are also covered with more high-end synthetic leather covers that look a bit like suede.
