Overview
The Honda GLX GL 1800 Gold Wing is a touring motorcycle from the 2014 model year. Its 1,832 cm³ four-stroke, six-cylinder boxer engine produces 167 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm, and the motorcycle weighs 421 kg.
The 739 mm seat height gives the rider a relatively low perch, while the 421 kg weight calls for deliberate handling at walking speeds. Shaft final drive avoids chain cleaning and adjustment, and the electronically controlled rear suspension offers two stored spring-preload settings. Its 25 L fuel tank provides the capacity for longer stretches between stops, though actual distance depends on fuel use.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Shaft final drive
The shaft drive avoids the regular cleaning and adjustment required by a chain.
Low seat
At 739 mm, the seat height can make it easier for many riders to reach the ground at a stop.
Selectable rear preload
Two stored spring-preload settings make it easier to switch the rear suspension setup for different loads.
Things to consider
Heavy at low speed
At 421 kg, maneuvering in tight spaces and making very slow turns takes more effort.
Limited ground clearance
The 124 mm ground clearance leaves less room for large bumps or steep obstacles.
