Honda GL 1800 Goldwing Tour DCT 2018

The new Honda Gold Wing Tour DCT is a big hit, both in terms of equipment and riding dynamics. The engine remains a wonderfully smooth six-cylinder boxer that still finds its purpose in sovereignty from the bottom up. Nevertheless, the Gold Wing Tour is much more agile and sporty thanks to less weight and, above all, a new chassis. The DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) is a perfect match for the Gold Wing Tour, especially the automated Econ level enriches the comfort immensely. The Sport mode is perhaps a little too sporty, but there is still no lack of comfort. The seating comfort and the wind protection are unique, the many features are simply marvellous - more is really not possible. Only in terms of storage space, the new Gold Wing Tour is 40 litres smaller than its predecessor.
