2016 Honda® Gold Wing F6B

2016 Honda® Gold Wing F6B

Maybe you want a touring bike that’s like nothing else out there. Maybe you want a cruiser that’s not a cookie–cutter clone. Maybe you just want a bike that’s big enough to take you wherever you want to go, and do it in comfort and style, with plenty of class and independence.

If that’s what you’re after, Honda’s Gold Wing® F6B is your kind of bike. Big, smooth, powerful. The Gold Wing® F6B uses technology gathered from our own Honda Gold Wing®, a bike that’s set the standards in Luxury Touring for the last 40 years. But the F6B is lighter, trimmer and leaner. You’re going to find that it’s perfect for around-town rides, shorter trips or weekend getaways. You’re also going to find that it will blow away just about any conventional cruiser in terms of looks and commanding presence—not to mention on-road performance.

You asked for it, so here it is. And the F6B is still available in two trim levels—standard and deluxe with a new Matte Pearl White. With plenty of storage capacity and with many of the Gold Wing®’s comfort and luxury features, the F6B is ready to take you wherever adventure calls. Isn’t it about time you answer?

• 1832cc Liquid-Cooled, Fuel-Injected Engine

Sometimes a powerplant rises above the merely functional and becomes an icon for superior engineering. It is this engineering that powers the Gold Wing® F6B. The technically savvy are impressed with its electronic programmable fuel injection, its compact flat-six design, how it’s horizontally opposed for smoothness and the fact that all this is achieved with regular unleaded gasoline. Even more impressive is the character this liquid-cooled, 1832cc six gives the Gold Wing F6B®—effortless, comfortable, and completely competent year after year.

• Adjustable Suspension

On a touring motorcycle, how much weight you carry constantly changes. Passenger or no passenger, loaded or empty saddlebags: you need an adjustable suspension that’s also easy to adjust. The F6B features a rear Pro Arm® single-side swingarm with Pro-Link single shock. Best of all, the spring-preload adjustment is remote-controlled.

• Shaft Final Drive

Clean, efficient and virtually maintenance-free, the F6B’s proven shaft final drive is exactly what you want on a bike like this. You can pile on the miles without ever having to worry about lubricating or adjusting a chain.

• Exhaust System

Baggers have a little attitude—and the F6B sets plenty of records in that department, thanks to an exhaust internals that give it a throatier, meaner sound.

• Advanced Wind and Weather Protection

At first glance, the F6B looks bare of wind and weather protection, but on your first ride, you understand its radical bodywork. Through careful design, rider and passenger are shielded from wind, cold and rain. This is a carefully tuned fuselage that deflects the environment and vastly improves rider comfort. It’s part of what makes a Gold Wing® world-class touring machine.

• Audio System with Surround Sound

Making a superior motorcycle sound system is a challenge, but it’s one that Honda has mastered like no other bike maker. You’ll be amazed when you experience the clear, powerful surround sound (SRS CS Auto*) with deep, powerful bass. And for those who prefer headsets (SRS Headphone*), you’ll discover sound that feels three-dimensional and totally realistic (SRS CS Auto)

• Cruise Control

Perfected on our Gold Wing® touring bikes, the F6B’s cruise control offers a full range of features: set, resume, step up and down. It works seamlessly, and it makes this smooth-riding machine seem even smoother, and it a real benefit on long, straight highway sections.
