Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing a heavy, large-dimension machine at low speeds and in parking maneuvers.
PurposeBuilt primarily for long-distance, high-comfort touring rather than sport riding or commuting.
Rider FitThe low seat height and centralized mass make it more manageable than its weight suggests, but its bulk still demands reasonable strength and confidence at a standstill.
CharacterA refined, technology-laden grand tourer that prioritizes smoothness, stability, and effortless high-speed cruising over outright agility.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking off-road capability, lightweight flickability, or a budget-friendly first motorcycle.

2020 Honda 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 2020 Honda 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.
