2026 Honda Gold Wing Tour, 2026 Honda® Gold Wing Tour Automatic DCT Cycle World’s Best Touring Bike

When it came time for Cycle World to name the best touring bike of 2025, the choice was easy: The Gold Wing Tour DCT. "When you want to eat miles in the greatest comfort and with the greatest of ease, nothing beats the progenitor of the luxury touring class: Honda Gold Wing."

With a hyper-smooth 1833cc horizontally opposed six-cylinder, 61-liter travel trunk, and available automatic transmission (DCT), the Honda Gold Wing Tour is made for the open road, the canyon roads, and everything in between.

Features may include:

• 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.

• Walking Mode

All DCT models 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.

• 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.
