Thinking of selling my '13 and some other stuff to get a Goldwing. Still stroking my chin on the thought.
From what I've been hearing about the newer Goldwing you are going to have one heck of a grin to deal with.

Morning chaps and thank you for the warm words about this purchase. I would still like to keep one eye on this forum and contribute because I think it’s terrific. Anyway, pics below. Had a couple of rides out so far. She’s a big girl, but as they always say once moving it’s easy, and it is. Never ridden a big horse (or any horse to be totally accurate) but I imagine it feels similar in that the bike feels powerful underneath you but not necessarily fast (in motorbike terms fast). Plenty quick enough for me anyway and one of my first riding impressions was that the CB and this do have a lot in common. Smooth, quiet, nice gearbox, decent brakes. Hope you like it.

Beautiful!

Fantastic bit of kit Jfro5687. I love the colour although it has an odd name "pearl deep mud grey" as Honda call it. It does really suit the bike with the dark engine and exhaust. I do like the look of this version without the top box, it looks sleeker and a bit more modern. Enjoy.

Oooo, like it.
If I were to go GW, this could the way for me.
Very cool. Congratulations and may there be much joy.

Reminds me of one of those Star Wars Imperial Destroyer ships, big, grey and sleek.

What's the best oil for those?

Nice colour; but Honda dropped the ball on the name of it (unless it's a poor translation).
MissidenFlyer on YouTube just got one for review (DCT version) and he loves it (but already owns a GW so a wee bit of bias....
).

"pearl deep mud grey"
Hmm, alternatives for "mud":
mire
sludge
slush
ooze <-- maybe, eh?
silt
clap
gumbo
dirt
soil
slob <-- ¯\ಠಠ_/¯
