Watching this while wearing a pair of BEATS earbuds, the engine is hypnotic!!! You’re doing 75mph and you sound like you’re standing in my living room!!! GOD, I want one so bad!!!
I’ve spent a lot of money on cameras and wireless microphones and hours and hours editing. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and especially the sound you put a smile on my face. It’s a great motorcycle. I hope to own one soon ride safe in peace.
Congrats! I have 148, 782 miles on my 2018 DCT, non tour I bought back in June of 2018. Awesome bike, no major issues. Bags and windscreen got stuck every now and then no big deal. Love my bike more with every mile I log on her. Ride safe…
You’re in good company because I receive so many comments just like yours. I think someone said they have over half 1,000,000 miles on their Goldwing and they’ve never done anything to it but possibly we’re doing new wheel bearings. Thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace on your beautiful motorcycle
Isn’t it? I think Hannah puts the best mufflers on their machines all their bikes sound great I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace.
You sir are now in my top 5 favorite reviewers simply put you are just good at it. Thanks for taking us with you. I own and enjoy both a GW and a RT an although the latter definitely has its pluses the GW is the undisputed originator AND king of long distance motorcycle touring in my opinion Take care. 😊
I couldn’t agree with you more absolutely. Thank you for your positive comment my problem is I enjoy all motorcycles. I also cannot hide my enthusiasm when I’m riding a new motorcycle doing a review. I try to find the best features in every bike I ride and share them with my viewers. I always say don’t trust anyone on RUclips if you’re interested in a motorcycle you have to research it yourself And especially ride them. Again, thank you for your kind, you are too generous. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your support please ride safe and in peace.
The gold wing is also the longest lasting motorcycle with a world record of going well over 500,000 miles before it needs rebuilt, after the engine is rebuilt,it's good for another 500,000 miles. My gold wing I bought for a $1,000 with 28,000 original miles, it will out last me, and I am 40 years old.
Donald, I would absolutely believe you as there’s no vibration in that engine whatsoever how could there possibly be any friction without vibration? Thank you for commenting happy Thanksgiving, right in peace.
I am a Honda rider for over 20 yrs if I buy a new motorbike it will definetely be Goldwing, Oh my God what a pleasure to ride it I felt it very closely when you ride it.
I believe I have three more videos to post on the Honda Goldwing . I hope you were watching, It was so hard for me to return this motorcycle it is amazing please ride safe and in peace
My last two big road bikes were Harley's but I'm not a Harley snob. I love all bikes, big and small and this one's a beauty. So smooth. Must be a blast to ride. I rode motors for a large police department just outside LA. Got paid to ride a bike all day. I would have paid them to do it. Great gig if you can get it.
Oh my God at my jealous you’re not kidding being paid to ride a police motorcycle does it get better than that? I’m totally with you. I’m not a motorcycle snob. I like all of them even debating doing a demo ride on a Chinese bike. They’re being said ride safe and in peace please continue to, thank you for your service.
Good morning, Peter! Enjoyed you taking us along on your Honda Gold Wing DCT ride. Thank you. Same exact bike and color as the one I own. You nailed it with your descriptives- Amazing, Smooth, Highway mile muncher, etc. Oh, and it's an arrow going down to the road. Look Mom, no hands!
Boy Marc, you have some awesome machines and I’ve watched your videos on the Goldwing . What a beautiful motorcycle you have I believe it’s the most comfortable touring motorcycle so smooth quiet and the ride is like you’re floating on here. I hope in the near future they add adaptive cruise control Blindspot alert and emergency brake warning ride safe and in peace keep creating great videos.
100% agree Marauder! It is rich! 😂 It’s a blast. Love my 22 DCT Tour airbag. It’s nimble even the Smokey Mountains. Huge congrats to you. Many miles of smiles. Woohoo!
I am first and foremost a motorcyclist. Got my license at 19 and car license at 27... Had sportbikes from 1986 to this day like GPz, ZX, CBR, GSXR but eventually got into cruisers (M109R) and tourers for their comfort, i am 6'4". My main ride is a 2010 Victory Vision 8-Ball and i sometime take my beloved 1993 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-11 for a ride. A friend of mine bought a brand new Gold Wing Bagger with a manual transmission in 2020 and i took it for a ride and i had a blast! This thing has the best of both worlds: luggage capacity for long distance touring AND amazing capabilities for fast riding on twisty roads... and the sound of that flat 6 at high rpm is addictive! I can't afford one right now but this is definitely my next bike. Greetings from Montréal, Québec. 🖖 👽 🇨🇦
Montreal is a beautiful city. I love Canada. Thank you for commenting and supporting the channel. Modern motorcycles are amazing. I’ve never written one that I absolutely didn’t like something about it. You are 100% right the Goldwing runs away with it with so many different levels personally I like the DCT transmission Ride safe and in peace.
I had a brand new Goldwing in 2006 . I took a trip up I-81 past Syracuse to get a title to a boat I purchased . It was unbelievable. I averaged 85-100 . What a machine ! I am so used to shifting gears instead of an automatic. I want a New Fatboy also . Had a Fatboy in the 2010-2015 years and loved it . Great video ! Ride safe always
I wanted a fat boy at one time you have great taste and motorcycles. I’m so happy you like your Goldwing . I’ve never heard of an owner not liking his Goldwing . Honda did a fantastic job on this motorcycle ride safe and in peace by the way I drive to Syracuse multiple times a year from Buffalo
I've been running a Fatboy now since 2019 and boy, that bike is a love fest..never going to sell it and will gift my son when he grows way older. Plan on getting a Gold wing in the new year, test rode one once and felt like steering a coushined cargoship. Loved it
@@maraudermitchelli It's been a week now since my last ride. I have a feeling it's over now with this winter storm approaching. Let make sure we link up again next season!
Yeah, I wasn’t sure if I was gonna mount the flag on the snowblower this year was wondering if people even noticed as always thank you for commenting. Be safe and in peace.
People who aren't used to splitting lanes as a part of their normal riding always believe that it is more challenging or dangerous than it really is. Once you're used to it, it's not such a big deal and you realize how much safer you are between traffic than being in it.
I've never lane split but I see your point. I "think" he was referring to the sheer bulk of the bike in regards to lane splitting, for me it would be some yahoo damaging my baby by making dumb decisions in congested traffic. Take care.
I would have to agree with you the more you do it the better you get at it just like riding a motorcycle in general. Buffalo doesn’t have a huge traffic issue like other cities. I think it is illegal in New York State. I just don’t see it while I’m stuck in traffic. Please be careful although you sound like you know what you’re doing. Please ride safe and in peace.
@@ItzDrPlowyep, illegal to lane split here. If caught bikes impounded for 28 days and the fines are in the 4 figures. And that's not including the cents digits or impound fees.
I own a 1986 Honda gold wing interstate gl1200 it runs as good the day that is was manufactured, I researched alot of different motorcycles and the only motorcycle worth the money is the Honda gold wing, it has the best of the best engineering money can buy, I can't picture myself owning anything else.
Donald, you may absolutely be right. You have a great motorcycle extremely well engineered and assembled. Please continue to enjoy your motorcycle. Thank you for watching my channel and commenting. I hope you consider subscribing ride safe and in peace.
Yeah, on motorcycles that have rain mode no doubt it dithers a throttle, but sometimes it dithers throttle just too much in my opinion. I love all rider aids even rain mode so I do agree with you, but sometimes you gotta use your brain and wrist on the throttle great, ride safe and in peace.
I had a 2018 GL1800B (6-speed) for four years. Heated grips, adjustable windscreen, Carplay and cruise control were great, but my NX500 with an aftermarket windscreen is about the same without the huge weight and expensive tire consumption.
I’m not going to disagree with you. I believe the NX 500 is also a Honda and that is a great motorcycle. Also, we each have to find our own rides that we like and value and what you did is just awesome and very creative. Thank you for supporting the channel ride safe and in peace.
I couldn’t agree with you more. I have three more videos to release on this motorcycle. I hope you watch them. The ride is almost like you’re floating down the road like something out of Star Wars please ride safe and in peace.
Have a Honda VTX 1800 F, bought it brand new and still rides like new. My next bike will be Honda DCT Goldwing. Will keep the VTX for a short distance ride and the Goldwing for traveling. Being retired, I have the time to enjoy both :)
I had to look up the Honda VTX 1800 what a monster looking motorcycle I’m 100% with you. I think the Honda Goldwing is my retirement bike with a DC T. I have three more videos to release on the Goldwing in the series. I hope you will watch them please ride safe and in peace
I used to own a Goldwing DCT. It was great bike with lots of cool features. I enjoyed the smooth ride, but I missed the roar of my Indian motorcycle. So I traded in my Goldwing for a HD Road Glide ST. But I have to say, the Goldwing was a great bike, but I needed the thunder sound of a motorcycle.
I hear you they are two different bikes, worlds apart change that universe’s apart. Some writers have commented they have both are Harley Davidson, Road Glide or road Kings and Honda Goldwing does it get much better than that I don’t think so. Thank you for supporting my channel ride safe and in peace and may God bless you.
I haven’t heard the word cheddar for money and so long I love that awesome! I hope you get your Goldwing soon. I respect your ambition to save money for it. You are a smart person ride safe and in peace.
Nicola, it’s amazing RUclips translated your message for me. Thank you for your positive words and you are absolutely correct. This is a cool amazing motorcycle please ride safe and in peace. Also let me know what country you are from. God bless you.
After riding Honda VFR 1200 DCT for over 250,000KM (155,000 miles) and buying Yamaha FJR 1300. I forgot to shift down to first gear coming to a stop and engine stalled in 6th gear. I prefer DCT over manual although it has some drawbacks.
Those are too cool motorcycles you have please do not feel bad after riding automatic shift motorcycles for six weeks I pulled out of my street on a Harley Davidson Pan Am in third gear installed it in the middle of the street… I get you believe me I struggle with the same issue when I’m writing an automatic shift I have to remember not the blip the throttle when I’m stopped creates an awkward situation. I’m sure we can adapt. Thank you for sharing your comment and making me feel better about my mistakes, ride safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli I rode one back in 1996! It made a claimed 33 bhp and for a 125 was fast. Being as I'm not small, it didn't pull well in seventh gear but it was quite a bike. The complete opposite to a Goldwing, revs and shift as fast as you can as often as you can!
What a bike!!! This is going to be my next bike depending on what the 2025 model delivers on. Great video that stirred my interest even more. I will be a new subscriber. Awaiting the other videos of this Goldwing. Thanks from David in Ontario, Canada.
Thank you for subscribing to the channel. I believe I had three more videos on the GW to release I have to focus on editing. I’m so far behind thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace please stay tuned for more Goldwing videos.
You have asked a worldwide question because this man is an idiot. I know him well because it’s me. I explained it in the video. Many viewers disagree with me. I only do this during rush hour please consider subscribing to my channel ride safe and in peace God bless you God bless your country
Sir, I explained why I ride in the left lane during rush-hour and this area of the Thruway on a motorcycle. It’s the safest lane to be in. I explain that during the video a lot of people have commented about it and I probably do a video solely explaining why I ride in the left lane. I have my commercial drivers license and can drive a tractor trailer drivers have to make a decision sometimes on safety that isn’t a standard rule the road, but at the time is the safest rule the road. I stand by my decision during rush-hour on this section of the Thruway to be in the left lane and I’ll do a video just explaining that please be safe right in peace and God bless you.
She can run the Thruway no problem new used old semi new kind of new maybe not new at all Great motorcycle thank you for commenting right safe and in peace God bless you
@maraudermitchelli Thank you for taking the time to reply... I thought it was brand new with no miles on it... So I'm wondering why you were doing the Thruway 😂😂😂... Thanks again Happy New Year...🙏🙏🙏
I totally get it maybe that’s why I haven’t purchased a Goldwing yet. It’s probably on my bucket list when I retire. This motorcycle is just so refined well engineered and manufactured. No one that has commented on my videos. Has regretted purchasing a Goldwing . Thank you for commenting and supporting my channel ride safe and in peace God bless you.
Yes, as a RUclips creator, I wish it had better bars to attach a camera to or a cell phone. I have to look up the bars you purchased thank you for your help. Please consider subscribing to my channel ride safe and in peace enjoy your beautiful motorcycle.
The Goldwing carries its weight very low in my opinion due to the low CG of the six-cylinder boxer twin and the fuel tank is very low in the motorcycle just above the engine what appears to be the fuel tank on the motorcycle is not more than likely, it’s the airbox so lifting the like office kickstand is very easy and maneuvering. The bike is also very easy power reverse and power forward off an electric engine really helped him maneuver it in the garage or in a parking lot truthfully I cannot say enough good things about this motorcycle if you’re interested in want I highly recommend you right up I hope they update this bike soon thank you for commenting. Great question ride safe and in peace.
I guess New York State is different than Ontario. In Ontario the left lane is not considered the "fast lane", instead it is considered the passing lane and you should only be in it when you are passing someone regardless of how fast you are going. I was a little shocked that you stayed in the left lane and forced someone to pass you on the right.
I fully understand and basically your understanding is the same for the United States at least in New York State, but in high traffic situations, I have no guilt staying in the left lane and going and driving at the post speed limit or slightly higher if people pass me on the right so be it but I want to protect my left flank. I hope you understand ride safe and in peace.
Yes it's true the left lane is considered the passing lane in Ontario but for the most part police ignore that due to the amount of traffic we have. The 401 is the busiest highway in North America and the left lane is just another lane for vehicles.
I think when they redesign the Goldwing four years ago, they did slim it up a bit and made it lighter and reduced the size of the gas tank. I thought the wind protection was outstanding better than any motorcycle I’ve ever ridden except maybe the Can Am spider. If you’re interested in a Goldwing I’d recommend that you ride one talk to the people at the dealerships. I do own a Harley Davidson, Road Glide, which I love but honestly, I think the Honda Goldwing is the most comfortable touring motorcycle on the market couple negatives as I mentioned in the video is, it doesn’t have adaptive cruise control Blindspot awareness emergency breaking and I wish the fuel tank was larger. They probably also have to update the instrumentation and touchscreen. Hopefully Honda will be doing that soon ride safe and in peace and thank you for your question. It was great.
During rush hour in this section of the Thruway, the left lane is the safest spot to be. I will not ride in the center lane or far right merging lane. It’s just too dangerous and some drivers are overly aggressive when I’m riding in the left lane I don’t have to worry about anything to my left because the Jersey barriers are there. I try to go with the flow of traffic when I’m in the left lane and if I do see that I’m holding people up I will go to the center lane and then return to the left lane. I really only do this during rush-hour and when I’m on a motorcycle, many people are very critical that I do this respectfully I don’t care. It’s a safe spot to ride. I hope you understand you can choose any lane you want thank you for commenting Rite safe and in peace.
Yup beautiful ride….until you have to replace your air filter at 16k (saw what a filter looks like at 16k) it definitely needs changing…you have tear top half of the bike down as it deep in the mid-frame $30-$50 for the filter, and $300-$400 in labour 🤔 😱
I totally believe you there’s a lot of body panels over the engine of this motorcycle. The fuel tank is someplace down there too, but it is an amazing machine ride safe and in peace thank you for a great,
I’ll always have a motorcycle with a clutch, but also I’m probably always gonna have a motorcycle with an automatic transmission. These new automatic transmission are just too nice and it’s very relaxing and you can focus more on being safe. God bless and thank you for a good,
I hear you, but I love all those buttons and I use most of them on this ride, but it is not a simple machine is it thank you for commenting you made me laugh ride safe and in peace
Smoother than a Porsche 911 I’ve driven that car much smoother amazing engine on this bike, but the 911 is faster no doubt about that Rite safe and in peace
Just saw you5 page through a friend. Is this your bike? I ride a 22 goldwing and honestly, when I tried lane splitting for the first time, I was worried because of how wide it is. Mine has the highway pegs. Anyways. That’s an amazing bike. Have fun.
This is not my motorcycle Hamburg Honda loan me the bike to do a video series on it more videos to come. It is an outstanding motorcycle and it is on my bucket list. Probably when I retire I have no experience lane splitting so I have to agree with you you must know what you’re talking about like anything else practice makes perfect Please ride safe and in peace thank you for commenting.
The automatic transmission is excellent and it is so much more relaxing to ride an automatic shift motorcycle. You have to experience it. I would not like this for all my motorcycles, but it’s nice to have a couple auto shift. Please consider subscribing to my channel ride safe and in peace.
I agree with you my next two motorcycles are gonna be automatic, shifting not that all my motorcycles will be automatic shifting, but at least the next two will ride safe and in peace
Respectfully, you must not write on New York State Thruway’s often they pass on the right they pass on the left. They drive on the shoulder of the road many people frankly just drive crazy even when you’re driving 10 miles over the speed limit. It’s what you have to deal with when you’re driving in New York State and other roads by drivers who are abusive And overly aggressive. I’m sure you realize this God bless right in peace.
Has anyone wheelied one of these yet? My friend flipped one once and got stuck underneath it we only found out because we heard OW ITS HEAVY from a distance!
You know, I think a guy tried to wheelie a gold wing, but the new ones have electronics that prevent it. I honestly don’t think you can wheel a new Goldwing unless you modify it not a smart thing to do. Maybe I’ll search RUclips to see if someone’s done it Ride safe and peace.
Great comment I’m guilty of that. I even watch my videos where I’ve demoed bike to relive the ride on motorcycles. I did not purchase totally true when I’m editing the videos. Sometimes my heart starts beating faster and harder as if I’m on the motorcycle I hope you enjoyed my videos. Please continue to comment you’re not alone. God bless you ride safe and in peace.
Unfortunately, you are absolutely right and I did pick one. Please stay tuned to the channel for more details this month. Thank you for commenting right in peace and may God bless you. I truly appreciate you supporting my channel.
I would love to ride an Indian Challenger. It is an amazing looking motorcycle and I’ve heard the engine is also very strong. I hope Indian will lend me a bike so I can post videos on it ride safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli I highly recommend a test ride. Coming from sport/naked bikes which I still own, I was looking for a second bike to cruise more comfortably on for longer distances. I had it narrowed down to 2 New Goldwing and K1600B. Then I discovered the Challenger. Test rode one and game over. Found a deal on a leftover and brought it home.
I think you’re absolutely right. I have to connect with our local Indian dealer and see in the spring if I can ride several Indian motorcycles and post videos thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate your suggestion please ride safe and in peace.
OK, I don’t think you can get a brand new SUV for a few more bucks at least not a midsize or a large SUV maybe a compact SUV that being said I hear you these motorcycles are getting more and more expensive Covid economy didn’t help at all. Inflation has gotten out of control. It’s just ridiculous so I get your point and believe me I feel your pain. I hope prices get more realistic in the future God bless and be safe.
I really don’t know but that’s an interesting question. I thought all Gold wings were made in Japan. I purchased a Honda tail and side-by-side several years ago and that was made in this country. I think North Carolina hopefully one of our viewers or answer your question please ride safe and in peace and continue to comment.
Goldwing manufacturing was done in Marysville, Ohio from 1980 until 2010 when Honda took back all Goldwing build to Japan. The Ohio plant started to produce Honda cars. These workers did a phenomenal job of building those Goldwings.
Man, you are good. I totally did not see that my Ducati air pressure warning came on and that was very easy to see but frankly when I read the Goldwing I’m really confused between the TFT screen the analog gauges and then the screens in lower and right hand corners with additional information. I just have to get used to riding a Goldwing please ride safe and in peace and thank you for the information I’m gonna let the dealer know.
@@maraudermitchelli mine sometimes come on 1st thing when going out for a ride, in cold UK weather, then goes off when the tire warms up. I know the tollerance is very narrow before activation. you can change the dash to show front and rear pressures on the tour model and not the bagger. Anyway enjoyed your review and I agree its a great machine, not keen on the sport mode its too snappy for my liking, but at sevnty years young its the first bike ive had with fly by wire throttle. Ride safe
No way laugh out loud and accord is just not nearly as fun or adventurous. This motorcycle is amazing. You should ride one really you should get out and ride a Goldwing. I think you’d be very surprised. Most people are judge first hand for yourself ride safe and in peace, and God bless.
Sir, in this case during rush hour on the Thruway, I disagree with you and I will make a video explaining this within the next several months, but many feel the same way you do. I think it’s up to a rider to determine what is the safest lane to be in and that’s what I did and won’t apologize for stay tuned. Thank you for your comment. It is great. God bless and ride safe.
Not up to rider and hogging left lane is dangerous and illegal in some states like NJ. You are forcing other drivers to pass you on right and potentially create accident. I don't see many cars merging and it's their responsibility to merge with our you changing lanes. No good reason to be on left lane unless right lane has potholes or you are passing Drive safe and beautiful bike
Respectfully, I disagree with you. I really don’t think it’s a sport bike and I do have some experience as I have 170 hp Ducati and a KTM 990 Duke, which are very sporty, but I do agree with you in part. It needs a higher fuel capacity and range 250 miles is not a lot for a touring motorcycle. Also, as I’ve stated many times they need to have adaptive cruise control to this motorcycle. By the way I’m sure your Goldwing is great. I never read a comment from anyone and I’ve read hundreds that have dislike their gold wings no matter what year ride safe and in peace.
Boy, it’s a mix bag on the horsepower of the Goldwing some locations say 90 hp other is 120 hp to me. It feels like 120 hp with a lot of torque and I agree with you lack of horsepower pushes some away and it really shouldn’t For Tory motorcycle. It has more than enough power and certainly is as fast as a Harley Davidson maybe even faster I know I own a Road Glide Goldwing feels like a magic carpet ride though it’s an amazing motorcycle. I’m glad you like your Goldwing ride safe and in peace stay tuned for more videos on this motorcycle.
In the United States this gold one I was riding was about $29,000. I know it seems like a lot of money but inflation worldwide Covid has really increased the cost of these great machines. I’m not sure we can do anything about it. Thank you for commenting ride safe in peace
Witam. Dziwny ten Goldwing z 2024. W tym roku modelowym kolor był ciemno szary z czerwonymi wstawkami. Wiem bo taki posiadam tylko w wersji Bagger. W miejsce schowka powinna być poduszka powietrzna. Poza tym duża szyba ( w Bagerrze jest krótka ) i podgrzewanie siedzenia pasażera się zgadzają.
Great comment I probably agree with you. Not sure of the color you’re talking about. I like the blue the red metallic and white. I’m not a gray or black bike person ride safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli Trochę jednak się pomyliłem. Jeżeli jest to pełna wersja a nie Bagger to kolor można było sobie wybrać. Natomiast Bagger co roku ma inne malowanie bez możliwości wyboru nawet za dopłatą. Albo bierzesz co jest albo nie.
Man, I hear you. It’s tough to get specifics on this motorcycle when I searched the horsepower it came up as about 90 hp on the DCT model in the dealer actually confirm that Honda does not list horsepower on their website I thought years ago when I researched this motorcycle, it came up. I found that it had 125 hp But I could not find that same information prior to this video. I truly believe it rides like a motorcycle with 120 hp. That’s what my butt tells me thank you for the comment. Please ride safe and in peace by the way, I don’t like when man manufacturers don’t post all the specifics are on their motorcycles. It’s frustrating.
I thought the same thing about automatic transmissions on motorcycles and I swear if I ever went back to an ATV, I would get an electric shift ATV with gears and not a CFT transmission that’s being sad. My next motorcycle will have an auto shift transmission and the Goldwing auto shift transmission is excellent And it’s awesome to have that extra seventh gear. I always recommend buy what you want, but it doesn’t hurt to look at a gold wing or even to ride one beautiful motorcycle and extremely comfortable, but I’m sure it’s not for everyone for me. It’s a retirement my retirement bike Ride, safe and peace.
You know the horsepower figures are all over the place on this bike 90 hp 120 hp and now you’re saying 110 I won’t argue with you. I really couldn’t find where it was listed. I believe it is about 120 hp it sure feels like it Thank you for helping. I truly appreciate it. You could absolutely be right. Please consider subscribing to my channel ride safe and in peace.
That was a very fun movie. I really enjoyed it. I was a reserve deputy sheriff for 20 years. I was a firearms instructor. Sometimes I felt like judge dread I loved every minute of it. Thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace.
You haven’t looked at RVs lately. They have even more crap on them too funny thank you for your comment. That’s the way our world is going please ride safe and in peace. I hope you enjoy your RV. I always wanted one.
Come on you don’t believe that one bit. I know you don’t believe that Honda Civic is a nice vehicle. Does not compare to a motorcycle one bet and although you might not like the Honda Goldwing for what it is, it may be the best Torin motorcycle on the market. I try not to compare two wheel vehicles and four wheel vehicles but then again you’re probably appeared and I respect that you may like the bar essentials on a motorcycle and at times I do also thank you for your, ride safe and in peace.
I am a beginner and frankly what I say at times is silly I admit that. Most of all regardless of being a beginner or silly I am always sincere. I hope you can see that God bless you ride safe and in peace.
As I’ve stayed in in the video on a motorcycle during rush-hour on this area of the Thruway, the safest position for me to be is in the left lane not in the center lane or on the right lane today driving back from the dealership in my truck, my niece and I watched a truck during rush-hour rapidly caught across four lanes of the Thruway almost hitting two cars that were in the right lane and center lane to get to the left lane as I’ve stated in the video, I’m in the left lane because no one is on my left and I can focus on people in the right lane. It’s safer. I do not do this when I’m in a vehicle on the Thruway during rush-hour in the section. I do when I am in the left lane. I do go with the flow in the left lane within reason and I do occasionally venture into the center lane if I have to let cars pass I found no matter what I’m driving. Some people are disrespectful drivers and will cross double lines to pass even when I’m going the speed limit when making a left-hand turn on a single Lane road I’ve seen them pass me on the right side of my vehicle on the shoulder just to be irresponsible. This is my decision with the criteria I mentioned I think it is the safest way to travel the Thruway in this area during rush-hour thank you for commenting. I know that in many ways you are correct not for me on a motorcycle ride safe.
Sir, you are not wrong that a lot of switches and functions on a motorcycle can be a distraction as I can be in a car. I agree with you respectfully I disagree with you that this motorcycle is junk. It is just amazing. I’d suggest you ride one. I think you’d be stunned how nice it is. Thank you for commenting. Don’t ever hesitate to disagree with me. I can take it and I appreciate your perspective, Rite safe and in peace.
Rob, I think that’s close to the weight. I think it’s a little heavier with the DCT and tour back but I’m not positive very difficult to find exact specs on the Goldwing even horsepower and torque but you may be absolutely right. Thank you for commenting. Please write safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli I'm on my 5th GL (I have a 2017 now). I may buy a 2025 GL or a BMW K1600GTL in the Spring. Thanks a bunch, and ride safe & peace to you. Happy Thanksgiving too!
Sir, you are absolutely correct but when I’m riding a motorcycle, during rush-hour around the airport I’ve been that rule for my own safety and go with the flow. It seems to work out well I hope you understand please ride safe and in peace.
Oh, please this motorcycle haunts me. It is just so amazing. I’ve been putting off a purchase of it hoping that they’re going to update it soon. It’s bothering me just to respond to your comment as I don’t need another touring motorcycle. I just don’t please ride safe and in peace.
Watching this while wearing a pair of BEATS earbuds, the engine is hypnotic!!!
You’re doing 75mph and you sound like you’re standing in my living room!!!

I’ve spent a lot of money on cameras and wireless microphones and hours and hours editing. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and especially the sound you put a smile on my face. It’s a great motorcycle. I hope to own one soon ride safe in peace.
Congrats! I have 148, 782 miles on my 2018 DCT, non tour I bought back in June of 2018. Awesome bike, no major issues. Bags and windscreen got stuck every now and then no big deal. Love my bike more with every mile I log on her. Ride safe…
You’re in good company because I receive so many comments just like yours. I think someone said they have over half 1,000,000 miles on their Goldwing and they’ve never done anything to it but possibly we’re doing new wheel bearings. Thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace on your beautiful motorcycle
wow that's some miles
The sound is hypnotic
Isn’t it? I think Hannah puts the best mufflers on their machines all their bikes sound great I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace.
That's not a motorcycle, it's a work of art. There are Goldwings, and everything else.
I disagree with you slightly. It’s an engineering work of art. You are so right I will own one eventually please ride safe and in peace.
You sir are now in my top 5 favorite reviewers simply put you are just good at it. Thanks for taking us with you. I own and enjoy both a GW and a RT an although the latter definitely has its pluses the GW is the undisputed originator AND king of long distance motorcycle touring in my opinion Take care. 😊
I couldn’t agree with you more absolutely. Thank you for your positive comment my problem is I enjoy all motorcycles. I also cannot hide my enthusiasm when I’m riding a new motorcycle doing a review. I try to find the best features in every bike I ride and share them with my viewers. I always say don’t trust anyone on RUclips if you’re interested in a motorcycle you have to research it yourself And especially ride them. Again, thank you for your kind, you are too generous. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your support please ride safe and in peace.
The gold wing is also the longest lasting motorcycle with a world record of going well over 500,000 miles before it needs rebuilt, after the engine is rebuilt,it's good for another 500,000 miles. My gold wing I bought for a $1,000 with 28,000 original miles, it will out last me, and I am 40 years old.
Donald, I would absolutely believe you as there’s no vibration in that engine whatsoever how could there possibly be any friction without vibration? Thank you for commenting happy Thanksgiving, right in peace.
I have 76gl1000 that a roll pin on the oil pump drive it only had 35000 miles on it I just about cried
I am a Honda rider for over 20 yrs if I buy a new motorbike it will definetely be Goldwing, Oh my God what a pleasure to ride it I felt it very closely when you ride it.
I believe I have three more videos to post on the Honda Goldwing . I hope you were watching, It was so hard for me to return this motorcycle it is amazing please ride safe and in peace
My last two big road bikes were Harley's but I'm not a Harley snob. I love all bikes, big and small and this one's a beauty. So smooth. Must be a blast to ride. I rode motors for a large police department just outside LA. Got paid to ride a bike all day. I would have paid them to do it. Great gig if you can get it.
Oh my God at my jealous you’re not kidding being paid to ride a police motorcycle does it get better than that? I’m totally with you. I’m not a motorcycle snob. I like all of them even debating doing a demo ride on a Chinese bike. They’re being said ride safe and in peace please continue to, thank you for your service.
Good morning, Peter! Enjoyed you taking us along on your Honda Gold Wing DCT ride. Thank you. Same exact bike and color as the one I own. You nailed it with your descriptives- Amazing, Smooth, Highway mile muncher, etc. Oh, and it's an arrow going down to the road. Look Mom, no hands!
Boy Marc, you have some awesome machines and I’ve watched your videos on the Goldwing . What a beautiful motorcycle you have I believe it’s the most comfortable touring motorcycle so smooth quiet and the ride is like you’re floating on here. I hope in the near future they add adaptive cruise control Blindspot alert and emergency brake warning ride safe and in peace keep creating great videos.
100% agree Marauder! It is rich! 😂 It’s a blast. Love my 22 DCT Tour airbag. It’s nimble even the Smokey Mountains. Huge congrats to you. Many miles of smiles. Woohoo!
I also own a Road Glide love your RUclips name. The Goldwing is a phenomenal machine. Thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace.
I am first and foremost a motorcyclist. Got my license at 19 and car license at 27... Had sportbikes from 1986 to this day like GPz, ZX, CBR, GSXR but eventually got into cruisers (M109R) and tourers for their comfort, i am 6'4". My main ride is a 2010 Victory Vision 8-Ball and i sometime take my beloved 1993 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-11 for a ride. A friend of mine bought a brand new Gold Wing Bagger with a manual transmission in 2020 and i took it for a ride and i had a blast! This thing has the best of both worlds: luggage capacity for long distance touring AND amazing capabilities for fast riding on twisty roads... and the sound of that flat 6 at high rpm is addictive! I can't afford one right now but this is definitely my next bike. Greetings from Montréal, Québec. 🖖 👽 🇨🇦
Montreal is a beautiful city. I love Canada. Thank you for commenting and supporting the channel. Modern motorcycles are amazing. I’ve never written one that I absolutely didn’t like something about it. You are 100% right the Goldwing runs away with it with so many different levels personally I like the DCT transmission Ride safe and in peace.
I had a brand new Goldwing in 2006 . I took a trip up I-81 past Syracuse to get a title to a boat I purchased . It was unbelievable. I averaged 85-100 . What a machine ! I am so used to shifting gears instead of an automatic. I want a New Fatboy also . Had a Fatboy in the 2010-2015 years and loved it . Great video ! Ride safe always
I wanted a fat boy at one time you have great taste and motorcycles. I’m so happy you like your Goldwing . I’ve never heard of an owner not liking his Goldwing . Honda did a fantastic job on this motorcycle ride safe and in peace by the way I drive to Syracuse multiple times a year from Buffalo
I've been running a Fatboy now since 2019 and boy, that bike is a love fest..never going to sell it and will gift my son when he grows way older. Plan on getting a Gold wing in the new year, test rode one once and felt like steering a coushined cargoship. Loved it
I've put 80K miles on my 21 in just over 2.5 years. You have made a wise choice. She eats up the miles and loves to travel.
Good for you, Lonnie that’s a lot of miles. Wow, you must love to ride. I hope you have a happy Thanksgiving ride safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli same to you.
Beautiful machine! Congratulations 🎉🎉
Hi Jeff I’m still writing. I hope you are too. Hopefully, we’ll get some rides in next summer ride safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli It's been a week now since my last ride. I have a feeling it's over now with this winter storm approaching. Let make sure we link up again next season!
Great ride...Fly your A-MER-I-CAN FLAG with pride this winter when plowing your driveway!
Yeah, I wasn’t sure if I was gonna mount the flag on the snowblower this year was wondering if people even noticed as always thank you for commenting. Be safe and in peace.
I just split lanes from the caldecott tunnel to walnut creek it was so sweet 😊
Good for you. I wish I could do that. Please ride safe and in peace happy new year.
People who aren't used to splitting lanes as a part of their normal riding always believe that it is more challenging or dangerous than it really is. Once you're used to it, it's not such a big deal and you realize how much safer you are between traffic than being in it.
I've never lane split but I see your point. I "think" he was referring to the sheer bulk of the bike in regards to lane splitting, for me it would be some yahoo damaging my baby by making dumb decisions in congested traffic. Take care.
I would have to agree with you the more you do it the better you get at it just like riding a motorcycle in general. Buffalo doesn’t have a huge traffic issue like other cities. I think it is illegal in New York State. I just don’t see it while I’m stuck in traffic. Please be careful although you sound like you know what you’re doing. Please ride safe and in peace.
i cant stand people who split lanes. iam a professional driver. yall need keep that unsafe driving in cali
I don’t lane split at all here in Arizona
@@ItzDrPlowyep, illegal to lane split here. If caught bikes impounded for 28 days and the fines are in the 4 figures. And that's not including the cents digits or impound fees.
I own a 1986 Honda gold wing interstate gl1200 it runs as good the day that is was manufactured, I researched alot of different motorcycles and the only motorcycle worth the money is the Honda gold wing, it has the best of the best engineering money can buy, I can't picture myself owning anything else.
Donald, you may absolutely be right. You have a great motorcycle extremely well engineered and assembled. Please continue to enjoy your motorcycle. Thank you for watching my channel and commenting. I hope you consider subscribing ride safe and in peace.
Rain mode is going to help you mitigate slippage. It has baby sitters that help keep the rubber side down. Good stuff
Yeah, on motorcycles that have rain mode no doubt it dithers a throttle, but sometimes it dithers throttle just too much in my opinion. I love all rider aids even rain mode so I do agree with you, but sometimes you gotta use your brain and wrist on the throttle great, ride safe and in peace.
I had a 2018 GL1800B (6-speed) for four years. Heated grips, adjustable windscreen, Carplay and cruise control were great, but my NX500 with an aftermarket windscreen is about the same without the huge weight and expensive tire consumption.
I’m not going to disagree with you. I believe the NX 500 is also a Honda and that is a great motorcycle. Also, we each have to find our own rides that we like and value and what you did is just awesome and very creative. Thank you for supporting the channel ride safe and in peace.

I couldn’t agree with you more. I have three more videos to release on this motorcycle. I hope you watch them. The ride is almost like you’re floating down the road like something out of Star Wars please ride safe and in peace.
Have a Honda VTX 1800 F, bought it brand new and still rides like new. My next bike will be Honda DCT Goldwing. Will keep the VTX for a short distance ride and the Goldwing for traveling. Being retired, I have the time to enjoy both :)
I had to look up the Honda VTX 1800 what a monster looking motorcycle I’m 100% with you. I think the Honda Goldwing is my retirement bike with a DC T. I have three more videos to release on the Goldwing in the series. I hope you will watch them please ride safe and in peace
I used to own a Goldwing DCT. It was great bike with lots of cool features. I enjoyed the smooth ride, but I missed the roar of my Indian motorcycle. So I traded in my Goldwing for a HD Road Glide ST. But I have to say, the Goldwing was a great bike, but I needed the thunder sound of a motorcycle.
I hear you they are two different bikes, worlds apart change that universe’s apart. Some writers have commented they have both are Harley Davidson, Road Glide or road Kings and Honda Goldwing does it get much better than that I don’t think so. Thank you for supporting my channel ride safe and in peace and may God bless you.
Marauder was my first bike back in 1999
Those older Goldwing were just amazing. You had a great first bike. Thank you for commenting Rite safe and in peace.
I have another year before I get enough cheddar to get this bike. I cant wait!
I haven’t heard the word cheddar for money and so long I love that awesome! I hope you get your Goldwing soon. I respect your ambition to save money for it. You are a smart person ride safe and in peace.
Классный мотоцикл! Honda умеет делать хорошие мотоциклы!

Nicola, it’s amazing RUclips translated your message for me. Thank you for your positive words and you are absolutely correct. This is a cool amazing motorcycle please ride safe and in peace. Also let me know what country you are from. God bless you.
@@maraudermitchelli Здравствуйте! Я из России!
nice. I also live and ride in WNY. GO BILLS!
Daniel, the bills are doing very well. Let’s keep our fingers crossed. Please be safe and in peace.
After riding Honda VFR 1200 DCT for over 250,000KM (155,000 miles) and buying Yamaha FJR 1300. I forgot to shift down to first gear coming to a stop and engine stalled in 6th gear. I prefer DCT over manual although it has some drawbacks.
Those are too cool motorcycles you have please do not feel bad after riding automatic shift motorcycles for six weeks I pulled out of my street on a Harley Davidson Pan Am in third gear installed it in the middle of the street… I get you believe me I struggle with the same issue when I’m writing an automatic shift I have to remember not the blip the throttle when I’m stopped creates an awkward situation. I’m sure we can adapt. Thank you for sharing your comment and making me feel better about my mistakes, ride safe and in peace.
The nineteen nineties Cagiva 125 sport motorcycle had a manual 7 speed g/box;
I don’t know this motorcycle if you say so, please ride safe and in peace and consider subscribing to my channel
@@maraudermitchelli I rode one back in 1996! It made a claimed 33 bhp and for a 125 was fast. Being as I'm not small, it didn't pull well in seventh gear but it was quite a bike. The complete opposite to a Goldwing, revs and shift as fast as you can as often as you can!
What a bike!!! This is going to be my next bike depending on what the 2025 model delivers on. Great video that stirred my interest even more. I will be a new subscriber. Awaiting the other videos of this Goldwing. Thanks from David in Ontario, Canada.
Thank you for subscribing to the channel. I believe I had three more videos on the GW to release I have to focus on editing. I’m so far behind thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace please stay tuned for more Goldwing videos.
A question from Scnadinavia; How come is he not pulling into the right lane when not overtaking ?
You have asked a worldwide question because this man is an idiot. I know him well because it’s me. I explained it in the video. Many viewers disagree with me. I only do this during rush hour please consider subscribing to my channel ride safe and in peace God bless you God bless your country
Riding in the left lane for the first part of the video ruined the entire review. Someone even had to pass ya on the right lol.
Sir, I explained why I ride in the left lane during rush-hour and this area of the Thruway on a motorcycle. It’s the safest lane to be in. I explain that during the video a lot of people have commented about it and I probably do a video solely explaining why I ride in the left lane. I have my commercial drivers license and can drive a tractor trailer drivers have to make a decision sometimes on safety that isn’t a standard rule the road, but at the time is the safest rule the road. I stand by my decision during rush-hour on this section of the Thruway to be in the left lane and I’ll do a video just explaining that please be safe right in peace and God bless you.
Brand new machine and you're going on the Thruway???...😊😊😊
She can run the Thruway no problem new used old semi new kind of new maybe not new at all Great motorcycle thank you for commenting right safe and in peace God bless you
@maraudermitchelli Thank you for taking the time to reply... I thought it was brand new with no miles on it... So I'm wondering why you were doing the Thruway 😂😂😂... Thanks again Happy New Year...🙏🙏🙏
Just not into touring bikes, but I get it. Nice ride.
I totally get it maybe that’s why I haven’t purchased a Goldwing yet. It’s probably on my bucket list when I retire. This motorcycle is just so refined well engineered and manufactured. No one that has commented on my videos. Has regretted purchasing a Goldwing . Thank you for commenting and supporting my channel ride safe and in peace God bless you.
Nice Bike
Thank you the Goldwing is an amazing motorcycle ride safe and peace
I put Heli bars on my 2023 DCT TOUR so much better than factory bars.
Yes, as a RUclips creator, I wish it had better bars to attach a camera to or a cell phone. I have to look up the bars you purchased thank you for your help. Please consider subscribing to my channel ride safe and in peace enjoy your beautiful motorcycle.
I have no doubt it feels very luxurious when riding the highway, but all the other times, because of it's size, does it still feel like a motorcycle?
The Goldwing carries its weight very low in my opinion due to the low CG of the six-cylinder boxer twin and the fuel tank is very low in the motorcycle just above the engine what appears to be the fuel tank on the motorcycle is not more than likely, it’s the airbox so lifting the like office kickstand is very easy and maneuvering. The bike is also very easy power reverse and power forward off an electric engine really helped him maneuver it in the garage or in a parking lot truthfully I cannot say enough good things about this motorcycle if you’re interested in want I highly recommend you right up I hope they update this bike soon thank you for commenting. Great question ride safe and in peace.
I guess New York State is different than Ontario. In Ontario the left lane is not considered the "fast lane", instead it is considered the passing lane and you should only be in it when you are passing someone regardless of how fast you are going. I was a little shocked that you stayed in the left lane and forced someone to pass you on the right.
I fully understand and basically your understanding is the same for the United States at least in New York State, but in high traffic situations, I have no guilt staying in the left lane and going and driving at the post speed limit or slightly higher if people pass me on the right so be it but I want to protect my left flank. I hope you understand ride safe and in peace.
Yes it's true the left lane is considered the passing lane in Ontario but for the most part police ignore that due to the amount of traffic we have. The 401 is the busiest highway in North America and the left lane is just another lane for vehicles.
Has the goldwing gotten narrow over years.. doesn't seem to be as much wind protection for body etv.i never owned one just kind of asking. .
I think when they redesign the Goldwing four years ago, they did slim it up a bit and made it lighter and reduced the size of the gas tank. I thought the wind protection was outstanding better than any motorcycle I’ve ever ridden except maybe the Can Am spider. If you’re interested in a Goldwing I’d recommend that you ride one talk to the people at the dealerships. I do own a Harley Davidson, Road Glide, which I love but honestly, I think the Honda Goldwing is the most comfortable touring motorcycle on the market couple negatives as I mentioned in the video is, it doesn’t have adaptive cruise control Blindspot awareness emergency breaking and I wish the fuel tank was larger. They probably also have to update the instrumentation and touchscreen. Hopefully Honda will be doing that soon ride safe and in peace and thank you for your question. It was great.
Why you drive in the left lane while the other lane is free?
During rush hour in this section of the Thruway, the left lane is the safest spot to be. I will not ride in the center lane or far right merging lane. It’s just too dangerous and some drivers are overly aggressive when I’m riding in the left lane I don’t have to worry about anything to my left because the Jersey barriers are there. I try to go with the flow of traffic when I’m in the left lane and if I do see that I’m holding people up I will go to the center lane and then return to the left lane. I really only do this during rush-hour and when I’m on a motorcycle, many people are very critical that I do this respectfully I don’t care. It’s a safe spot to ride. I hope you understand you can choose any lane you want thank you for commenting Rite safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli thanks👍🏻💪🏻👍🏻
Yup beautiful ride….until you have to replace your air filter at 16k (saw what a filter looks like at 16k) it definitely needs changing…you have tear top half of the bike down as it deep in the mid-frame $30-$50 for the filter, and $300-$400 in labour 🤔 😱
I totally believe you there’s a lot of body panels over the engine of this motorcycle. The fuel tank is someplace down there too, but it is an amazing machine ride safe and in peace thank you for a great,
Nice bike but i could never ever do automatic gearing its a joy killer for me good luck by the way
I’ll always have a motorcycle with a clutch, but also I’m probably always gonna have a motorcycle with an automatic transmission. These new automatic transmission are just too nice and it’s very relaxing and you can focus more on being safe. God bless and thank you for a good,
jeeeesus christ. that thing has way too many buttons for me. holy moly.
I hear you, but I love all those buttons and I use most of them on this ride, but it is not a simple machine is it thank you for commenting you made me laugh ride safe and in peace
Smooth as a 911 engine!
Smoother than a Porsche 911 I’ve driven that car much smoother amazing engine on this bike, but the 911 is faster no doubt about that Rite safe and in peace
It sounds like you two need a room.. 😁😆😅🤣😂🙂
You’re the first comment in a long time that’s made me laugh. You’re 100% right too much information. God bless you ride in peace.
Just saw you5 page through a friend. Is this your bike? I ride a 22 goldwing and honestly, when I tried lane splitting for the first time, I was worried because of how wide it is. Mine has the highway pegs. Anyways. That’s an amazing bike. Have fun.
This is not my motorcycle Hamburg Honda loan me the bike to do a video series on it more videos to come. It is an outstanding motorcycle and it is on my bucket list. Probably when I retire I have no experience lane splitting so I have to agree with you you must know what you’re talking about like anything else practice makes perfect Please ride safe and in peace thank you for commenting.
I just bought the same one, in New Jersey, love it.
You are so lucky because this is a great machine. I hope you enjoy it doesn’t get much better than a Honda Goldwing please ride safe and in peace.
Where in Jersey
@@CheeseBiker4Life from Swedesboro nj,. I bought the bike from DHY, in Deptford nj.
@ nice have always liked the Goldwing
My Gold Wing is 2004. Must be time for an upgrade. Automatic?
The automatic transmission is excellent and it is so much more relaxing to ride an automatic shift motorcycle. You have to experience it. I would not like this for all my motorcycles, but it’s nice to have a couple auto shift. Please consider subscribing to my channel ride safe and in peace.
All that shifting for what? The wing pulls from idle even up a hill💪
I agree with you my next two motorcycles are gonna be automatic, shifting not that all my motorcycles will be automatic shifting, but at least the next two will ride safe and in peace
PAASED ON. THE RIGHT> come on
Respectfully, you must not write on New York State Thruway’s often they pass on the right they pass on the left. They drive on the shoulder of the road many people frankly just drive crazy even when you’re driving 10 miles over the speed limit. It’s what you have to deal with when you’re driving in New York State and other roads by drivers who are abusive And overly aggressive. I’m sure you realize this God bless right in peace.
Has anyone wheelied one of these yet? My friend flipped one once and got stuck underneath it we only found out because we heard OW ITS HEAVY from a distance!
You know, I think a guy tried to wheelie a gold wing, but the new ones have electronics that prevent it. I honestly don’t think you can wheel a new Goldwing unless you modify it not a smart thing to do. Maybe I’ll search RUclips to see if someone’s done it Ride safe and peace.
does anyone here watch motorcycle reviews or test ride to get ownership/riding pleasure just by watching others happy on a motorcycle?
Great comment I’m guilty of that. I even watch my videos where I’ve demoed bike to relive the ride on motorcycles. I did not purchase totally true when I’m editing the videos. Sometimes my heart starts beating faster and harder as if I’m on the motorcycle I hope you enjoyed my videos. Please continue to comment you’re not alone. God bless you ride safe and in peace.

Just curious.... Have you ridden an Indian Challenger?
I would love to ride an Indian Challenger. It is an amazing looking motorcycle and I’ve heard the engine is also very strong. I hope Indian will lend me a bike so I can post videos on it ride safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli I highly recommend a test ride. Coming from sport/naked bikes which I still own, I was looking for a second bike to cruise more comfortably on for longer distances. I had it narrowed down to 2 New Goldwing and K1600B. Then I discovered the Challenger. Test rode one and game over. Found a deal on a leftover and brought it home.
You're in NY. Keep right except to pass...
Thank you, sir. I will remember that please ride safe and in peace God bless.

What thruway are you on. I'm in New Jersey
I-90 exit 57
This is on the 90 going from Hamburg to Buffalo New York by the airport. Ride safe and in peace maybe we’ll meet up on the Thruway.🙂
You should try the Indian Challenger & Pursuit...
Its like a Goldwing but with V2 character..
I think you’re absolutely right. I have to connect with our local Indian dealer and see in the spring if I can ride several Indian motorcycles and post videos thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate your suggestion please ride safe and in peace.
Nice! But for a few more bucks, you can get a brand new SUV.
OK, I don’t think you can get a brand new SUV for a few more bucks at least not a midsize or a large SUV maybe a compact SUV that being said I hear you these motorcycles are getting more and more expensive Covid economy didn’t help at all. Inflation has gotten out of control. It’s just ridiculous so I get your point and believe me I feel your pain. I hope prices get more realistic in the future God bless and be safe.
are those goldwings still made in ohio? looks like a magic carpet ride stay safe
I really don’t know but that’s an interesting question. I thought all Gold wings were made in Japan. I purchased a Honda tail and side-by-side several years ago and that was made in this country. I think North Carolina hopefully one of our viewers or answer your question please ride safe and in peace and continue to comment.
Goldwing manufacturing was done in Marysville, Ohio from 1980 until 2010 when Honda took back all Goldwing build to Japan. The Ohio plant started to produce Honda cars. These workers did a phenomenal job of building those Goldwings.
nice but can't afford it (yet)
Yikes, you’re not kidding. That makes two of us. I’m waiting for the redesign ride safe and in peace.
your tire pressure light came on around 11:22, i take it you hadn’t a puncture.
Man, you are good. I totally did not see that my Ducati air pressure warning came on and that was very easy to see but frankly when I read the Goldwing I’m really confused between the TFT screen the analog gauges and then the screens in lower and right hand corners with additional information. I just have to get used to riding a Goldwing please ride safe and in peace and thank you for the information I’m gonna let the dealer know.
@@maraudermitchelli mine sometimes come on 1st thing when going out for a ride, in cold UK weather, then goes off when the tire warms up.
I know the tollerance is very narrow before activation. you can change the dash to show front and rear pressures on the tour model and not the bagger.
Anyway enjoyed your review and I agree its a great machine, not keen on the sport mode its too snappy for my liking, but at sevnty years young its the first bike ive had with fly by wire throttle.
Ride safe
Just get a damn Accord. No rain.
No way laugh out loud and accord is just not nearly as fun or adventurous. This motorcycle is amazing. You should ride one really you should get out and ride a Goldwing. I think you’d be very surprised. Most people are judge first hand for yourself ride safe and in peace, and God bless.
Left lane is not for cruising, move to right please and avoid accidents. Thank you
Sir, in this case during rush hour on the Thruway, I disagree with you and I will make a video explaining this within the next several months, but many feel the same way you do. I think it’s up to a rider to determine what is the safest lane to be in and that’s what I did and won’t apologize for stay tuned. Thank you for your comment. It is great. God bless and ride safe.
Not up to rider and hogging left lane is dangerous and illegal in some states like NJ. You are forcing other drivers to pass you on right and potentially create accident. I don't see many cars merging and it's their responsibility to merge with our you changing lanes. No good reason to be on left lane unless right lane has potholes or you are passing Drive safe and beautiful bike
@ you are right but o respectfully disagree. I understand…I will reflect on this. Ride safe please
Honda turned the wing into a sport bike. Not good. The last great wing is a 2017!💪 the real deal.
Respectfully, I disagree with you. I really don’t think it’s a sport bike and I do have some experience as I have 170 hp Ducati and a KTM 990 Duke, which are very sporty, but I do agree with you in part. It needs a higher fuel capacity and range 250 miles is not a lot for a touring motorcycle. Also, as I’ve stated many times they need to have adaptive cruise control to this motorcycle. By the way I’m sure your Goldwing is great. I never read a comment from anyone and I’ve read hundreds that have dislike their gold wings no matter what year ride safe and in peace.
Jealous
All good. But 160hp from flat six 6 cylinder 1800 would be so accessible. Love mine though but hp does nor attract younger tourers.
Boy, it’s a mix bag on the horsepower of the Goldwing some locations say 90 hp other is 120 hp to me. It feels like 120 hp with a lot of torque and I agree with you lack of horsepower pushes some away and it really shouldn’t For Tory motorcycle. It has more than enough power and certainly is as fast as a Harley Davidson maybe even faster I know I own a Road Glide Goldwing feels like a magic carpet ride though it’s an amazing motorcycle. I’m glad you like your Goldwing ride safe and in peace stay tuned for more videos on this motorcycle.
Yea for 85k they can keep it
In the United States this gold one I was riding was about $29,000. I know it seems like a lot of money but inflation worldwide Covid has really increased the cost of these great machines. I’m not sure we can do anything about it. Thank you for commenting ride safe in peace
Witam. Dziwny ten Goldwing z 2024. W tym roku modelowym kolor był ciemno szary z czerwonymi wstawkami. Wiem bo taki posiadam tylko w wersji Bagger. W miejsce schowka powinna być poduszka powietrzna. Poza tym duża szyba ( w Bagerrze jest krótka ) i podgrzewanie siedzenia pasażera się zgadzają.
Great comment I probably agree with you. Not sure of the color you’re talking about. I like the blue the red metallic and white. I’m not a gray or black bike person ride safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli Trochę jednak się pomyliłem. Jeżeli jest to pełna wersja a nie Bagger to kolor można było sobie wybrać. Natomiast Bagger co roku ma inne malowanie bez możliwości wyboru nawet za dopłatą. Albo bierzesz co jest albo nie.
125 HP and 125 TQ
Man, I hear you. It’s tough to get specifics on this motorcycle when I searched the horsepower it came up as about 90 hp on the DCT model in the dealer actually confirm that Honda does not list horsepower on their website I thought years ago when I researched this motorcycle, it came up. I found that it had 125 hp But I could not find that same information prior to this video. I truly believe it rides like a motorcycle with 120 hp. That’s what my butt tells me thank you for the comment. Please ride safe and in peace by the way, I don’t like when man manufacturers don’t post all the specifics are on their motorcycles. It’s frustrating.
And the automatic..i would just feel off
I thought the same thing about automatic transmissions on motorcycles and I swear if I ever went back to an ATV, I would get an electric shift ATV with gears and not a CFT transmission that’s being sad. My next motorcycle will have an auto shift transmission and the Goldwing auto shift transmission is excellent And it’s awesome to have that extra seventh gear. I always recommend buy what you want, but it doesn’t hurt to look at a gold wing or even to ride one beautiful motorcycle and extremely comfortable, but I’m sure it’s not for everyone for me. It’s a retirement my retirement bike Ride, safe and peace.
If you sold you Klim gear, you can buy this bike and spare some money on top 😂😂😂
Too funny you’re probably right except I really like my Klim gear and it’s worth every penny. Ride safe and in peace.
2:30, I woulda been halfway to Texas. 👎
I know John I know you just wanna keep riding this bike forever. It’s like you’re floating on air ride safe and in peace.
HP is 110
You know the horsepower figures are all over the place on this bike 90 hp 120 hp and now you’re saying 110 I won’t argue with you. I really couldn’t find where it was listed. I believe it is about 120 hp it sure feels like it Thank you for helping. I truly appreciate it. You could absolutely be right. Please consider subscribing to my channel ride safe and in peace.
Judge Dredd
That was a very fun movie. I really enjoyed it. I was a reserve deputy sheriff for 20 years. I was a firearms instructor. Sometimes I felt like judge dread I loved every minute of it. Thank you for commenting ride safe and in peace.
Why not just get a car at this point
You made me laugh many people feel the same way you do it’s cross my mind once or twice ride safe and in peace
W-a-y too much shit on that bike. I would just get an rv.
You haven’t looked at RVs lately. They have even more crap on them too funny thank you for your comment. That’s the way our world is going please ride safe and in peace. I hope you enjoy your RV. I always wanted one.
May as well get a civic, cheaper.
Come on you don’t believe that one bit. I know you don’t believe that Honda Civic is a nice vehicle. Does not compare to a motorcycle one bet and although you might not like the Honda Goldwing for what it is, it may be the best Torin motorcycle on the market. I try not to compare two wheel vehicles and four wheel vehicles but then again you’re probably appeared and I respect that you may like the bar essentials on a motorcycle and at times I do also thank you for your, ride safe and in peace.
William you’re a beginner by what you say. A silly video.
I am a beginner and frankly what I say at times is silly I admit that. Most of all regardless of being a beginner or silly I am always sincere. I hope you can see that God bless you ride safe and in peace.
Get out of the passing lane. Should never be passed on the right....
As I’ve stayed in in the video on a motorcycle during rush-hour on this area of the Thruway, the safest position for me to be is in the left lane not in the center lane or on the right lane today driving back from the dealership in my truck, my niece and I watched a truck during rush-hour rapidly caught across four lanes of the Thruway almost hitting two cars that were in the right lane and center lane to get to the left lane as I’ve stated in the video, I’m in the left lane because no one is on my left and I can focus on people in the right lane. It’s safer. I do not do this when I’m in a vehicle on the Thruway during rush-hour in the section. I do when I am in the left lane. I do go with the flow in the left lane within reason and I do occasionally venture into the center lane if I have to let cars pass I found no matter what I’m driving. Some people are disrespectful drivers and will cross double lines to pass even when I’m going the speed limit when making a left-hand turn on a single Lane road I’ve seen them pass me on the right side of my vehicle on the shoulder just to be irresponsible. This is my decision with the criteria I mentioned I think it is the safest way to travel the Thruway in this area during rush-hour thank you for commenting. I know that in many ways you are correct not for me on a motorcycle ride safe.
junk....way too big and too many fancies that cause you to not watch the road
Sir, you are not wrong that a lot of switches and functions on a motorcycle can be a distraction as I can be in a car. I agree with you respectfully I disagree with you that this motorcycle is junk. It is just amazing. I’d suggest you ride one. I think you’d be stunned how nice it is. Thank you for commenting. Don’t ever hesitate to disagree with me. I can take it and I appreciate your perspective, Rite safe and in peace.
Wet weight 804 lbs.
Rob, I think that’s close to the weight. I think it’s a little heavier with the DCT and tour back but I’m not positive very difficult to find exact specs on the Goldwing even horsepower and torque but you may be absolutely right. Thank you for commenting. Please write safe and in peace.
@@maraudermitchelli I'm on my 5th GL (I have a 2017 now). I may buy a 2025 GL or a BMW K1600GTL in the Spring. Thanks a bunch, and ride safe & peace to you. Happy Thanksgiving too!
Left lane is for passing...
Sir, you are absolutely correct but when I’m riding a motorcycle, during rush-hour around the airport I’ve been that rule for my own safety and go with the flow. It seems to work out well I hope you understand please ride safe and in peace.
Well, don't bring it back! It looks like a keeper.
Oh, please this motorcycle haunts me. It is just so amazing. I’ve been putting off a purchase of it hoping that they’re going to update it soon. It’s bothering me just to respond to your comment as I don’t need another touring motorcycle. I just don’t please ride safe and in peace.
