Honda has recently revealed the 2021 Goldwing globally and we guess there is not even a single feature left that can be added to this premium tourer further. First launched in 2018, this is the fifth-generation Honda Goldwing with minimal updates. However, the feature list on this motorcycle keeps on expanding with every update it gets.

  • Honda has revealed the 2021 Honda Goldwing globally.
  • It gets a redesigned seat at the back, updated audio system and ample amout of storage space.
  • It will be launched in India soon and will be retailed via Honda’s Bigwing channel.
