Engineered by Honda for the touring motorcycle segment, the 2015 Honda Gold Wing F6B Deluxe relies on a 1832 cc (111.8 cu in) liquid-cooled six cylinder boxer, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 167 Nm (123.2 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 74.0 x 71.0 mm (2.9 x 2.8 inches) with a 9.8:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Gold Wing F6B Deluxe measures 381.9 kg (842 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 724 mm (28.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,689 mm (66.5 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 24.98-liter (6.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 6.92 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 361 km (224 miles) between fill-ups.
