Six-cylinder touring power, tuned for real miles

At the heart of the Gold Wing Tour is an 1833cc liquid-cooled horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine. The flat-six layout is known for smoothness and balance, and it pairs naturally with a touring mission: steady roll-on power for passing, calm cruising at highway speeds, and a refined feel when you’re riding two-up with luggage.

DCT-focused control: smooth, consistent, and low-effort

This model is the Gold Wing Tour DCT, built around a seven-speed automatic DCT experience. For many touring riders, the advantage is simple: less fatigue in stop-and-go traffic and more consistent shifting when you’re managing passenger comfort, wind, and road conditions.

If you’re planning long days across Southern California, DCT can help keep the ride calm and predictable—especially when you’re transitioning between freeway cruising and urban streets.

Throttle-by-wire + ride modes: tailor the response

The Gold Wing Tour includes throttle-by-wire and ride modes to help match the bike’s response to your day’s route. Whether you want a relaxed feel for steady touring or a sharper response for brisker riding, selectable modes help you dial in the character without changing the bike’s core comfort.

ABS helps maintain control during hard braking or on unpredictable surfaces—useful for touring where conditions can change quickly.

Traction management can add reassurance when accelerating on slick pavement or when you’re fully loaded with a passenger and gear.

A low center of gravity contributes to stable handling at speed and a more manageable feel at parking-lot pace—important for a full-dress touring motorcycle.
