Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a very heavy, large-dimension motorcycle at low speeds and in tight maneuvers.
PurposeBuilt for effortless long-distance touring with a passenger and luggage rather than for spirited sport riding.
Rider FitThe low seat height and DCT automatic transmission make it accessible, but the substantial weight demands confidence when pushing the bike around or handling parking-lot maneuvers.
CharacterA refined, technology-laden luxury tourer that prioritizes smooth power delivery, comfort, and effortless shifting over outright sportiness.
Not Ideal ForNot a good match for riders seeking a light, flickable machine for aggressive cornering or any form of off-road use.

2024 Honda GL 1800 Gold Wing Tour Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 744mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2024 Honda GL 1800 Gold Wing Tour, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
