2018 Honda Gold Wing F6B Deluxe Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Honda's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2018 Honda Gold Wing F6B Deluxe utilizes a 1832 cc (111.8 cu in) liquid-cooled six cylinder boxer, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 114 HP (83.2 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 167 Nm (123.2 lb-ft) at 4,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 62.2 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (4,000 rpm) and peak power (5,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the Gold Wing F6B Deluxe measures 382.8 kg (844 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.3 HP/kg (3.36 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 734 mm (28.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,707 mm (67.2 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.
