Engineered by Honda for the touring motorcycle segment, the 2023 Honda Gold Wing Tour Automatic DCT features a 1833 cc (111.9 cu in) liquid-cooled six cylinder boxer, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 118 HP (86.1 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 7-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 64.4 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 Tour Automatic DCT measures 383.3 kg (845 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.31 HP/kg (3.25 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 744 mm (29.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,699 mm (66.9 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 21.01-liter (5.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.6 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 375 km (233 miles) between fill-ups.
