Great review, thanks for the knowledge. Your bike looks really nice!

Road mine to work in the city everyday (even at -10c if the roads were dry) then wife on board, we were off on the weekends. 200,000 kms., with zero mechanical issues. Changes fluids tires and a plug change. My wife loved the bike for it's comfort, smoothness and I loved it for the torque, the beautiful sound and the nice handling. Best bike I ever owned and I came from almost 2 decades of sportbikes. Thanks for the vid and I agree wholeheartedly.

Good work mate. I’d love to own one, but I wanna also keep my 2017 Ultra Ltd Harley. Both great bikes and capable in the right hands.

Fantastic video and review... Definately do a few more video`s like this as there are hardly any similar ones out there. Not everyone has a huge budget or want to spend a lot of cash on a motorcycle. I`m one of these people and to give you an example; only this week, I purchased a 2011 Vstrom 650 with 55,000k`s on the clock, from a very well know dealer in Melbourne for only $4,490. And I`m pretty sure that this bike could have been had for a bit cheaper had I purchased it privately. So please, please, please do make more videos like the one that you just have. "Thank you"...

A-MA-ZI-NG review!!! Packed with real life info that only a true motorcyclist can provide! Greetings from your new subscriber from Greece🤗

Hi Steve, it was great to meet you a couple of weeks at Strath, by chance. We enjoyed the chat and lots of laughs & appreciated your stories & knowledge. Great video & the 411 is definitely a great bike. As a fairly new rider I love mine. Comfy, reliable & easy to handle, goes anywhere. Cheers Mandy & Rick

Amazing review! Thank you so much... I currently own a GL1500 (My Second) and a GL1800 which I got late last season... I don't want to sound snobby but I truly think these are the best bikes on the planet... (I've had over 30 bikes so I'm speaking from experience) If you haven't tried a GW, you owe it to yourself!

Great review! You still got it?

I've had mine since, well, yesterday! 😆

Hello Steve, please can you tell me where did you buy that aftermarket exhaust pipe's, can you post some link or something. Also great video, very greatfull to watch. I also love that classic older bikes. And yours revs and sounds beautifull. Best regards from Croatia. Cheers😊

I don't know how people achieve over 68 MPG, that's USA miles. Normally near 62 MPG. I ride the bike rather conservatively when I perform an MPG test. At times the bike's display shows much better MPG during a ride, but the refill calculation is the closest to actual Average MPG results. Is there a special muffler that increases MPG? The bike I ride is a stock Manual 6 speed 2019 NC750X. Good Video

excellent review. Does Pavement, dirt road, and some light off-road. My bike is a 2019 manual NC750X. I installed the taller Givi windshield. and it keeps the wind off my body and head at 80MPH. I gas up using 87 octane with 10% ethanol. I do notice that after 70 MPH, the fuel economy starts to decrease quite a bit while riding the NC750X. I haven't tested pure non-ethanol 90 cause it costs more than one-dollar per gallon vs. the ethanol mix. Can't justify any possible small increase in MPG. Most likely the taller windshield is the issue. I bought the 750X used with less than 3000 US miles on it. I think I've put 2k additional miles on it. BTW: I also own a Honda CTX700 with over 10k miles. same engine. I toured 3000 miles of interstate, 2-Lane Highway, and mountain roads in the Appalachian Mountains on the US East Coast. Then, I rode it 600 miles straight home at about 75-85 MPH on the interstate from the Smoky Mountains, my last destination of the trip. The engine and the bike ran flawlessly and maintained 58 - 62 MPG. Those Honda FIT engines run great. Plan to tour on the NC750X, it feels at home on the interstate.

What an Awesome! thorough informative review. Thank you 😊 👍 Every so often a manufacturer creates a great machine, I think the 1050 tiger sport is one. I am considering the 2025 released 800 tiger sport and found this review during my research. 🤔 now wondering about late 1050s 😊 cheers

This is a really thoughtful review. Thanks to you and the dealer that loaned the bike. Best Wishes!

I am a 32 inch leg would I be good to ride this bike had a gt just a bit to big n tall.love the bikes 😊

I own this bike. This is a great review. I agree with everything. Great work.

I live in the south of france and have owned my 2007 gl1800 since 2015. She has taken me all over Europe yet has only done 43k miles. I love the bike but at 71 years young i only ride her in the dry and daylight. I do one long ride per year to somewhere with mountains and sunshine, the rest of the year i keep her active by riding around the pyrenees looking for a nice place to have lunch😊 unfortunately my wife no longer joins me after we were rear ended on a harley electraglide in florida😢

Enjoyed review.

Best bike reviewer on YT bar none.

Dct or manual? best mpg?

Great review, I have a red 2013 1050 se , absolutely love mine..

I drive a Z4 E89 and I see a lot of similarities: The 6 cilinders, daytime running lights, Xenon and even the sound of the engine! Nice video, thanks!

My first knowledge of the Honda Good Wing was back in 1975, when they were introduced to Australia, I was impressed but couldn’t afford to upgrade from my CB750 at the time. Not long after that, a riding mate bought a beautiful red one……very jealous indeed. In 1993 I was fortunate be able to travel to the USA for around 6 weeks and had access to a BMW K100RT and covered around 8000K’s in the Western States with Wife on the pillion seat. The Beemer did a good job overall, however, I came across a few people travelling around on Honda GL1500’s some towing trailers and all with pillions aboard. I couldn’t believe the pace that were making on the curvy mountain roads in North California and Oregon, timeI was very impressed. Anyway time and a couple of motorcycles later in 1999, I was in a position to purchase a new GL1500 Aspencade in black. What a revelation. Naturally, I changed horses again after a few years as I like to experience various Motorcycles, I finally bought a new 2010 GL1800……another revelation. However I did go back to a 1995 GL1500 for a while, I think that 1500 was the epitome of what a Gold Wing was supposed to be. I continued chopping and changing to maximise my motorcycling experiences and enjoyed doing so. However I did, here I am in my 70’s and still keen to ride, just not as often or as far, But the itch returned for another ‘Wing, so now about to pick up a nice lowish K’s 2005 GL1800 in Candy Apple Red…….it will almost certainly be my last, but I propse to enjoy the hell out of it for as long as possible. 👍😎

I must ask who makes that pair of gloves.

Wow you got me super excited... l am getting a 2017 K1600 GT next week. Mine does not have the Radio fitted, but that is not a big deal with in helmet bluetooth speakers. I am super impressed with your dirt road skills and it also made me worry a little less for when l encounter dirt roads here in South Africa. I had 2 GSA's but l was looking for something more comfortable for my wife and l to ride weekends. Thanks for your detailed review. BMW should sponsor you!

Great review. A joy to watch. I'm a pom & I live in Gloucestershire. I lived down under for 18 years & geez I miss the place. Anyway I sought out the nearest RE dealer for a test ride here when these came out. Turned out to be at Watsonian Squire workshops at an old WW2 RAF airfield. Nissen huts the works. They invited me in for a look at the Zeppelins under construction. Hand built in a workshop no bigger than your average Aussie double garage. Bloody Ripper! as the expression goes.

having enjoy a number of GL's with few issues, my biggest fear was the ease at which I could 'nod off" momentarily, which certainly produces a "pucker factor" reaction. They are so smooth , comfortable & totally reliable !

Any heating issues ?

Love my F6B… this is by far the Best GL platform.. even the crash bars are perfect…! The Tour included

Greetings from Europe gl 1200 standard🍀👋

great review mate.

Awesome thank you. I’m a newbie and have been trying to decide between the new 450 and this 411 and youve pretty much given me all the info I needed to know that it’s the 411 that will tickle my fancy more.

Great video. Love my 2018 DCT. I usually get ~60mpg (US) on mine but I ride around 70 mph on the highway most of the time. The thing that surprised me most on your video was the fuel cost!!! I thought California was expensive at $5/gal, SEVEN dollars per gallon there!?

Love the way you chuck the bike around in the dirt.

Nice idea employing your daughter for the myth busting. Good vid. Would love a Gold Wing one day.

Have the 2016 in manual. Love it.

Great review! thank you from Gibraltar

We need this in the US! I have a large displacement street bike but want a capable, fun small bike that can handle gravel and double track for the weekend.

I have ridden my GL1800 on many a curvy road here in the states ,,, West Virginia country twisties , the “Tail of the Dragon “ in Tennessee, Beartooth Pass in Montana, etc,, the bike will do pretty much whatever you ask of it ! 😉👍🇺🇸

Great review of a forgotten gem mate 👍. I love your thoroughness and penchant for older or peculiar bikes, and this gives your change a breadth and depth I don’t get from other bike channels. Some suggestions for future videos: 2014ish Triumph Tiger XC (a worthy 3/4 version of the Tiger 1050?), early 00’s Transalp 650 (forgotten gem?), Moto Guzzi Stelvio (Italian rival to the Super Tenere you reviewed?). Clearly I’ve had too many beers while watching your excellent channel. Enjoy your bikes in good health 👍

Thanks giving what few do,, giving the HP. ,51

you have been the only one ever met stating that bike as a light one :)

A few days ago I found a bag that was almost the same design as my dream bag, but the price blew my mind. I have a soul resonance with kislux . It taught me that beauty doesn’t have to be expensive, it just has to be right.

What an awesome review. The best, hands down. Thanks!

Does it have to be Black.....?!?

What a great review I have a 2008 Triumph, 1050 and I love the bike. It is a great all around bike 🙏🙏💯💯💯 thanks for the review

Riding along in a car is like watching a movie.....riding along on a Goldwing is like being in the movie!

licence built version of the original Kawasaki 650 engine

2005 Candy Red 30th anniversary edition here. My everyday driver. Have not driven a car to work in a long time. Southern California weather... similar torque numbers as my VMAX 1700 and almost 2X the horsepower of my Fatboy Evo.

Great review thanks and yes I'm happy to watch reviews on older bikes.
