2025 Honda Gold Wing Tour Light Silver Metallic

Carpe Road Trip

• Engine

The horizontally opposed 1833cc six-cylinder engine is famously smooth and powerful.

• Double-wishbone front suspension

The radical double-wishbone front suspension delivers stellar handling, and lets both the engine and rider/passenger move closer to the front wheel.

• Advanced meters

Keep track of speed, ride mode, fuel level, air temperature, cruise control settings, and even connect wirelessly to Apple CarPlay™ or Android Auto™.

• Large trunk

The trunk on our Tour model holds 61 liters. That means you can typically get two full-face helmets in there.

Features May Include:

Performance

• Engine

The horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine is famously smooth and powerful. The latest version is an 1833cc design that’s over 13 pounds lighter than previous generations (more than eight pounds less for our DCT trims).

Standard on: all trims

• Aluminum cylinder sleeves

High-strength aluminum cylinder sleeves help reduce weight, increase cooling efficiency, and reduce engine length. The 73mm cylinder bore and the short, high-strength crankshaft also help make the engine more compact.

Standard on: all trims

• Unicam® cylinder head design

The Unicam® cylinder head design with four valves improves engine performance and power, reducing weight from the previous generation.

Standard on: all trims

• Twin-wall exhaust pipes

You may think this is just for cosmetics, but single-wall exhaust pipes can throw off a lot of heat on a hot day. The twin-wall design keeps things cooler. Not to mention, this is the best-sounding Gold Wing we’ve ever built.

Standard on: all trims

Handling

• Double wishbone front suspension

The radical double-wishbone front suspension delivers stellar handling and gives the bike a sleek, sporty appearance. The innovative design changes the wheel's path, letting us move both the engine and rider/passenger closer to the front wheel.

Standard on: all trims

• Frame

This latest generation all-aluminum frame is significantly lighter and more compact than previous editions. State-of-the-art die-casting lets us fine-tune chassis rigidity, giving you a smooth ride and precise handling.

Standard on: all trims

• Swingarm/rear suspension

Using our proprietary single-sided Pro Arm® design, the aluminum swingarm houses the shaft drive. The swingarm links to the frame using a patented pivot structure that both increases stiffness and reduces weight, so you get responsive handling and a smoother ride.

Standard on: all trims

• Anti-Lock Braking System

All models are equipped with our combined Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) for excellent stopping power under a wide variety of road and traction conditions.

Standard on: all trims

• Ride modes

The engine offers a wide range of user-friendly power, and you can even choose between four ride modes (Tour, Sport, Rain, and Econ), with each mode varying the power output so you can tailor the bike to your current riding conditions.

Standard on: all trims

• Lighter overall weight

The latest Gold Wing is almost 90 pounds lighter than the previous generation, making it even more fun to ride on twisty roads.

Standard on: all trims

• Low center of gravity

The weight distribution of a motorcycle is just as important as its overall weight when it comes to handling. With its horizontally opposed engine, the latest model boasts the lowest center of gravity in its class, resulting in excellent handling.

Standard on: all trims

• Dual radial front brake calipers

The dual brake calipers on these bikes are mounted radially, similar to that of our World Champion RC213V MotoGP racebike. The stiffer mounting reduces caliper flex and improves brake power and feel.

Standard on: all trims

Engineering

• Seven-speed automatic DCT

Available with our revolutionary seven-speed automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT), the shifts are fast and smooth, and the overdrive seventh gear is perfect for highway cruising.

Standard on: Gold Wing Tour Automatic DCT & Gold Wing Tour Airbag DCT

• Six-speed manual transmission

If you prefer a manual transmission, the latest model offers the best conventional gearbox in Gold Wing history. A case in point is an overdrive sixth gear, so highway cruising is supremely smooth.

Standard on: Gold Wing Tour

• Hill Start Assist

All models offer Hill Start Assist (HSA). This feature momentarily holds your motorcycle’s position on inclines after you’ve released the brakes and before you apply the throttle, eliminating any roll-back.

Standard on: all trims

• Reverse

The DCT models offer an exclusive low-speed reverse that uses engine power, while the manual transmission bikes offer a unique electric reverse. Both systems make maneuvering your bike out of parking spaces easier, especially if you need to roll back up an incline.

Standard on: all DCT trims

• Throttle-by-wire

The throttle-by-wire system enables features like the bike’s four ride modes and our exclusive Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC).

Standard on: all trims

• Integrated Starter Generator (ISG)

We’ve combined the starter and alternator into one assembly that’s light and compact. It’s part of the overall weight-savings program, and you’ll hear the difference the first time you press the start button.

Standard on: all trims

• Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC)

On all models, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) monitors your bike’s rear-wheel speed and instantly adjusts torque. It’s a great feature when riding in the rain or anywhere where surface conditions compromise traction.

Standard on: all trims

• Airbag

Honda pioneered the concept of a motorcycle airbag, and the latest Tour model continues to lead the way. Available as an option, it goes that extra mile towards increased rider safety.

Standard on: Gold Wing Tour Airbag DCT

• Walking Mode

All models with DCT transmissions feature “Walking Mode,” which lets you creep forward or backward under power at a walking pace. Just think how easy it will be to get in and out of tight parking spots with a fully loaded bike.

Standard on: all DCT trims

• Cruise control

The Gold Wing was one of the first touring bikes to offer cruise control, and with our advanced throttle-by-wire system, it’s better than ever.

Standard on: all trims

Style

• Special 50th Anniversary Edition

2025 is a year to celebrate—50 years since the original Gold Wing first revolutionized the world of motorcycle touring. That’s why we’re producing a special 50th Anniversary model, with exclusive graphics and a “since 1975” opening sequence on the instrument display.

Standard on: 50th Anniversary trims

• Exclusive 50th anniversary commemorative book

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Gold Wing, we’re giving every Anniversary Edition purchaser a specially commissioned 192-page hardbound book with slip case commemorating the history of the Gold Wing, and what it means to its riders. In addition, they’ll also receive a 3D, 1/12-scale tabletop model celebrating the 1975/2025 Gold Wing. Supplies are limited so get into your local dealer to secure your new 50th Anniversary Gold Wing and commemorative memorabilia.

• Nano-tech paint

Even the paint is high-tech, using BASF’s nano technology. The darks look darker, the lights look brighter, and the paint itself has a luxurious feel.

Standard on: all trims

• LED lighting

All models feature a complete LED lighting package. The headlights, taillights, and every bit of instrumentation are LED, which last longer, are lighter, and run cooler.

Standard on: all trims

Comfort & Convenience

• Large trunk

The Tour trunk holds 61 liters. That means in most cases, you can get two full-face helmets in there. Combined, the trunk and saddlebags give you 121 liters of storage, plenty to hold what you need for a weekend’s travels.

Standard on: all Tour trims

• Electric windscreen

The windscreen is electrically controlled and provides excellent protection from the elements, moving both up and down over a 4.9-inch range and changing its angle as it raises and lowers. Plus, it automatically remembers the last setting.

Standard on: all trims

• Fairing

The full-coverage fairing offers excellent wind and weather protection, yet is trimmer and more aerodynamic than in previous generation models. It also flows more air through refined ducting, helping keep you cooler on hot summer days.

Standard on: all trims

• Rider/passenger seating

All models feature seats with a custom-feel suede-like cover. The rider on every model can enjoy an optional backrest, and on our models without a trunk, there’s an optional backrest for the passenger.

All models feature integrated saddlebags that are designed to hold enough for most weekend trips. The bags open electronically with the push of a button and lock and unlock remotely with the smart key.

Standard on: all trims

• Functional styling

While the bodywork still offers excellent weather protection, it’s crisper now, exposing a little more of the engine and chassis. It’s definitely not your grandfather’s touring bike.

Standard on: all trims

Part of riding a bike is enjoying the elements. But nobody likes being cold. That’s why all models come equipped with electric heated grips as standard equipment.

Standard on: all trims

The cockpit meters are information central. In addition to the basics like vehicle and engine speed, ride mode, fuel level, and more, you can also monitor outside air temperature, cruise control speed, and even connect wirelessly to Apple CarPlay™ or Android Auto™.

Standard on: all trims

• HomeLink®

Available as an optional feature, HomeLink® lets you integrate your new bike with devices in your home, such as your garage door opener, via a switch on your bike’s center console.

Standard on: optional on all trims

• Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Correct tire inflation is a necessity for safe, economical motorcycling. And it’s especially critical with a touring bike because of the varying loads. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) automatically warns you of low tire pressure on all models.
