Today’s GL1800 is a
class-leading machine which adds
fine handling to the seamless
torque of that glorious flat-six
engine. The 30th Anniversary
Edition of the world-famous Gold
Wing celebrates the whole
history of the best
horizontally-opposed motorcycles
ever by carrying three 30th
Anniversary emblems on the front
cowl, rear top box and on the
lower cockpit control panel.
Chrome-plated ‘Gold Wing’
emblems also feature on the side
covers of the machine, while the
Wing’s large LCD information
panel features a unique
commemorative display during
both start-up and shut-down
cycles. The cost of the latest
GL1800 Gold Wing is just £16,999
on the road.
