2018 Honda Gold Wing Engine And Transmission Details

[@claynicolsen5401]

Outstanding video. Thanks for posting. I'm on my 5th Harley, and I'm done. Done. I'm a long distance touring rider, 40k in the last 2 years. The new Yamaha was at the top of my list, but this new Wing has bumped it completely off. Can't wait to test ride one.

Honda never stops impressing me.. there engineers are world's best. All I buy and own is Honda

[@sohpol]

Except they sometimes fuck up the charging system ;)

[@TM15R]

EXCELLENT VIDEO, REALLY USEFULL INFO. MUCH THANKS

[@oceannavagator]

Just wondering how the new frame will handle a sidecar?

[@dangersix]

Some great re-engineering by Honda, but why didn't they redesign the placement of the airbox so the average owner can replace the air filter himself so it's not a 2hr job by a trained Honda mechanic?

[@dangersix]

You'd have thought that would be one of the first things to redesign as a result of GoldWing owners feedback. Don't they listen to the consumer?

[@272flashlites]

Excellent video with great information.

[@alexmusso1743]

I understand that Honda designed a new starter generator to save weigh, the question is: how much would it cost to replace it? It's a bit wierd! if the starter fails should everything be replaced? or just part of that? Another thing that intrigues me, is the new engine, will it be easy to replace things in it? would be easier than ever to replace the air filter? or doing ligther and more compact desing will increase the level of difficulty to replace things? I never see links on the steering in a motorcycle before? what if they fail!

[@thewidower1]

Alex Musso the starter/generator concept is old technology for Honda. It’s what they used to use on their old CB motorcycles back in the late 60s and all through the 70s. I imagine it would be more economical to replace the entire unit than one or the other.

Better get the extended warranty for 8 years of great riding under factory warranty. 🤘

[@googleuser2082]

This bike will be popular

[@scottwitkowski1298]

Im a 290lb man, this bike looks smaller to me. Ive always loved my goldwing but this doesn't appeal to me. It looks like its competing with that new BMW 1600. I guess ill stick with the last generation. I might consider an Indian Roadmaster.

[@scottwitkowski1298]

Joe Blow I just looked it up. That's a nice looking bike and its got great power numbers. I had no idea yahmaha had come that far in design. Looks like Honda is about to lose alot of the market.

[@HandsomeMan1664]

Thanks great video.

[@DiGitalDigg1]

My dream motorcycle just got more dreamier.

[@northerniltree]

DCT is cool. Now, if Honda could design a toaster that automatically butters your bread.

[@jennydiazvigneault5548]

Harley must be feeling very sad.

[@edcones2948]

Harley and Honda aren't really competing for the same market. I know a number of riders who won't ride anything but Harley. They go on and on about the recent improvements Harley's made, and I say that the Japanese have been doing that for 20 years. They just shrug. ;)

[@jeffmalz7103]

Why would they?

[@lance3613]

I ride too far, too fast and too often to ride a Harley. 🤘

[@brent1041]

To bad it didn't give any actual numbers. The old engine was heavy at 280lbs for engine and transmission without any fluids. The old engine also made 120hp at the crank and 100hp to the wheels. I want to see actual numbers

[@northerniltree]

5, 7, 19 46, 19, 392.

[@MrDlfen721]

All that...and yet no one thought to let us hear it...

[@artsbest1]

And what are the power numbers on this new engine? No HP nor TRQ data so far. Like why?

[@Niehauscycle]

Our sources from Honda say there has been a 5 hp bump. The torque curve is supposed to be broader, but no indication yet if those numbers have increased. We will be getting more information from Honda on 11/6/17 and we will share that on our Facebook and website. We also plan another KZbin video that will fill in other information in the next 30 days.

[@denniskarnes8680]

Louie Lamoore Honda never gives those numbers on the touring bikes.

[@claynicolsen5401]

I've read it's making 125 bhp/125 lb-ft at the crankshaft.

[@brent1041]

The old 1800cc engine made about 120hp at the crank and about 100hp at the wheel

[@nairbyad7188]

thanks for sharing. too bad you could not find a way to copy without videoing a screen. please turn off the auto focus because when nothing is moving in the video, it makes things get bigger and smaller as it continuously tries to focus.

[@claudiobriingas4153]

Nair Byad hermosaaaaaaaa máquinaaaaa.la Goldwing

[@2169scs]

WOW, Honda Gold Wing

[@caraudiojoe3813]

I think they should have put the dct in the CTX1300 and set that bike up as a touring option. Too bad they killed it off

[@donnafinlayson4430]

we just bumped harley off our list. this is it or my hubby and me, and why not.?we have an 83 cb1000c that runs as smooth as butter as old as it is. we wont give it up for any price so we are looking forward to a new honda also

[@kevinstockman8866]

Ill give you 150.000 for it

[@josephhamm1943]

Noooooo not a hill start assist

[@raybrensike42]

Lots of technological reasons to not buy a new motorcycle, seems to me. Cheaper, lighter, less of everything except quality, would be better for many, no radio, no fancy anything, would be what many people would want, I should think.

[@UncleWally3]

Aside from a marketing ploy, what does “all new” mean? Does it run on monkey farts; does it hover; self-riding; does it automatically delete Trump’s tweets? Hardly “all new” then is it?

[@theklrdudeoo9173]

my friend had one , he said they are pretty gutless !

[@kevinstockman8866]

I got one and it has way more power than any stock harley

[@andrewkitchenuk]

😂 😂 😂

[@mohammadnadeemasifmohammad9618]

Shame on you honda company so big engine in this bike why? End of fuel in the world this engine carrying the bus 50 seater and you made a bike only 2 seater 1833 cc shame on you P

[@kevinstockman8866]

Go ride your camel

[@andrewkitchenuk]

Shut up. 🤐
