Honda Gold Wing F 6 C
2014
2014
The 2014 Honda Gold Wing F6C is a cruiser motorcycle that offers a unique take on the grand touring lineage of the Gold Wing. Unlike its full-dress touring sibling, the F6C sheds the fairings and luggage for a more muscular, stripped-down aesthetic. This puts it in direct competition with power cruisers like the Yamaha VMAX and, to some extent, the Harley-Davidson V-Rod.
At the heart of the Gold Wing F6C lies its impressive engine. The 1832.0 ccm (111.79 cubic inches) six-cylinder boxer engine is a powerhouse, producing 114.0 HP (83.2 kW ) at 5500 RPM and a substantial 167.0 Nm (17.0 kgf-m or 123.2 ft.lbs) of torque at 4000 RPM. This gives the bike strong acceleration and plenty of pulling power across the rev range. The large 25.36 litres (6.70 US gallons) fuel tank allows for decent range between fill-ups, making it suitable for longer rides despite its cruiser focus.
The Gold Wing F6C offers a comfortable riding experience, though different from the traditional Gold Wing. The seat height is 734 mm (28.9 inches), which, even at its lowest setting, provides a commanding riding position. The stripped-down design means less wind protection compared to the full touring model, but the powerful engine and comfortable ergonomics still make it a capable machine for racking up miles. The suspension is tuned to provide a smooth ride, absorbing bumps and imperfections in the road effectively.
The target audience for the 2014 Honda Gold Wing F6C is riders who appreciate the legendary Gold Wing engine but prefer a more aggressive and minimalist style. It appeals to those who want a powerful and comfortable cruiser without the bulk of a full touring motorcycle. While it might not be the ultimate long-distance machine, the F6C offers a unique combination of power, comfort, and style that makes it a compelling choice in the power cruiser segment. It's a motorcycle that prioritizes raw performance and a distinctive look over all-out touring amenities.
✅ Why buy this bike?
• Unrivaled long-distance touring comfort for both rider and passenger, thanks to its plush seats and ample space. • Smooth and powerful 1832cc flat-six engine delivers effortless acceleration and passing power even when fully loaded. • Exceptional wind protection from the large fairing and adjustable windscreen minimizes fatigue on long rides. • Integrated navigation system, premium audio, and heated seats/grips enhance the touring experience significantly. • Shaft drive reduces maintenance compared to chain-driven motorcycles, providing a cleaner and hassle-free experience. • Linked braking system (LBS) provides confident and controlled stopping power, increasing rider safety.⚠️ Things to consider
• Significant weight makes it challenging to maneuver at low speeds and in tight spaces, requiring considerable rider skill. • High purchase price and running costs (fuel, maintenance, tires) make it an expensive motorcycle to own and operate. • Large size can make it difficult to park and store, especially in urban environments or limited garage space. • Complex electronics and systems can be expensive to repair if issues arise, requiring specialized technicians. • Fuel economy is not the best compared to smaller motorcycles, especially when ridden aggressively or fully loaded.With 114 HP, requires full Class A license. Riders must be 24+ or have 2 years A2 experience (20+).
