Segment: Touring
Production years: 2005, 2006
2005 brings the industry's first motorcycle airbag in the fully-loaded trim of the Gold Wing, and this also means that the bike is a ABS-equipped version. Adding ABS to the existing Linked Braking System takes safety to a new level, shortening the stopping distance and offering better stability when braking hard on difficult, slippery surfaces.
Of course, the 2005 Gold Wing with ABS is available in multiple other trims, and if it's only the anti-locking brakes you want, you surely have a lot of choices. Tech specs and comfort are both premium, living up to the highest expectations any demanding rider could have.
