2017
2017
The 2017 Honda Gold Wing F6B Deluxe represents a stripped-down, bagger-style iteration of the iconic Gold Wing touring motorcycle. Aimed at riders seeking a more streamlined and accessible experience, the F6B Deluxe offers a balance of comfort and style. Consider it a competitor to models like the Harley-Davidson Street Glide, offering a different take on long-distance cruising.
At the heart of the F6B Deluxe lies its impressive engine: an 1832.0 ccm (111.79 cubic inches) six-cylinder boxer, four-stroke powerplant. This engine generates a substantial 118.0 HP (86.1 kW) at 5500 RPM, coupled with a hefty 167.0 Nm (17.0 kgf-m or 123.2 ft.lbs) of torque at 4000 RPM. This power allows the F6B Deluxe to reach a top speed of 200.0 km/h (124.3 mph), making it more than capable on the open road. The fuel capacity is 23.50 litres (6.21 US gallons) which provides a long range between fill-ups.
The F6B Deluxe provides a comfortable riding experience, even for longer journeys. The low seat height of 724 mm (28.5 inches) makes it accessible to a wide range of riders. The ergonomics are cruiser-focused, emphasizing relaxed riding posture. While not as plush as the full-dress Gold Wing, the F6B Deluxe still offers good wind protection and a smooth ride quality, ideal for extended trips.
The 2017 Honda Gold Wing F6B Deluxe is geared towards riders who appreciate the Gold Wing's legendary engine and reliability but prefer a more minimalist, bagger aesthetic. It's a motorcycle for those who enjoy cruising and touring without the bulk of a full touring rig. If you value smooth power, comfortable ergonomics, and a distinctive style, the F6B Deluxe is a compelling option.
✅ Why buy this bike?
• The horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine delivers exceptionally smooth and effortless power across the entire RPM range, minimizing vibrations for comfortable cruising. • Shaft drive eliminates the need for chain maintenance, providing a clean and reliable power transfer system for long-distance touring. • The F6B's lower seat height and lighter weight compared to the full Gold Wing enhance maneuverability at low speeds and in parking lots. • Integrated audio system with speakers provides entertainment on the road, enhancing the riding experience for both rider and passenger. • Ample storage capacity in the saddlebags allows for carrying essential gear and luggage, making it suitable for weekend trips or longer journeys. • Excellent wind protection from the fairing and windscreen reduces rider fatigue on long rides, improving overall comfort and enjoyment.⚠️ Things to consider
• The large displacement engine results in relatively lower fuel economy compared to smaller touring motorcycles. • Limited ground clearance can be a concern on uneven roads or when cornering aggressively, potentially leading to scraping. • The fixed windscreen offers limited adjustability, potentially causing wind buffeting for riders of certain heights, affecting comfort. • Despite being lighter than the full Gold Wing, its weight can still be challenging to manage for less experienced riders, especially at low speeds. • The infotainment system, while functional, is not as advanced as modern motorcycle systems with features like Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.With 118 HP, requires full Class A license. Riders must be 24+ or have 2 years A2 experience (20+).
