2025 Honda Gold Wing

Honda’s Gold Wing has long stood as the pinnacle of motorcycling luxury, a legacy that continues as the iconic touring bike celebrates its 50th anniversary.

Channelling the 1988 GL1500 is the bold Eternal Gold and Mahogany Brown Metallic combination, subtly updated for 2025

Over the past half-century, the Gold Wing platform has evolved significantly, yet it has remained true to its core mission: delivering a comfortable and enjoyable long-distance riding experience.

For the 2025 model year, the Gold Wing adds wireless compatibility to its Apple CarPlay and Android Auto systems.

Five decades since inception the 50th Anniversary Gold Wing Tour is here for the 2025 model year. It is available in two stunning paint options with commemorative 50th-anniversary detailing, along with a special limited-edition ‘half-and-half’ model that pairs both the original and latest versions side by side.
