A short history of Honda Goldwing Motorcycle

Goldwing's timeline! Honda Goldwing has been a synonym for a comfortable luxury cruiser for two from 1980 to 2018! Today there is more competition, and the new Goldwing might be one step back, but it's still a bike to consider if you are looking for a for highway cruiser... and with an experienced driver it's fun also on small curvy alpine roads as long they have asphalt on them!
