I have an 09 goldwing and an 05 nomad 1600. I'm parting with the Nomad. She likes both, and so do I, but looking and sounding cool can't compete with comfort and being able to hear the stereo clearly. Especially on long rides. I've had about 10 bikes my whole life, and i swear the goldwing is the finest thing on 2 wheels.
My Wing is an 08. My Harley is an 02. Both paid for. I have no desire to pay $25k plus, to ride something new when both my bikes are still quite capable for anything I want to do on a bike.
I to have a 2008 and sold my 12 fatboy for comfort for us both(wife). The fatboy was fun for 10 years, goldwing is fun and comfortable extremely refined too.
Great video, my first time to your channel. I own an 04’ Gold wing. I really enjoyed the comparison of the two different bikes. Reaffirming my choice was the right one at the time. She’s a fine machine and I Love her guts. I’m getting kinda old now and she will haul the mail if you feel like it. I’ll be checking out your other videos.
I'm gonna make a prediction before I finish watching your review. You will keep the Honda! (by the way, love the personal reviews more than from the pro's).
Yes, I have heard that many times. You can almost surmise that by just looking at the two bikes together. Fortunately, that is something I don't have to worry about 😉. Thank you for watching and commenting!
You’re comparing apples to oranges. First of all, you made a good point when you started the video that you’ve got a newer generation BMW against an older generation Goldwing. The new gold wings have a lot more power and they handle a lot better and they’re lighter weight you raise that BMW against a brand new Goldwing or a third generation Goldwing 2018 and up and you will have a heckuva time deciding which one is better personally I wouldn’t on the BMW just for maintenance costs that alone is Expensive. The other thing is you’re talking about speeding horsepower. They’re two different bikes Goldwing has made the cruise and tour in comfort not race down the highway so if you want to race, get the Beamer if you want to ride comfortably keep the Goldwing.
First, thanks for watching and commenting Ed! "Apples to oranges"? It's not like I compared a touring motorcycle to a dirt bike, LOL. Both bikes fall into the "touring" category, yes, I researched it. New '23 Wing has a lot more power than my 2005? The '23 Wing has only 7 more HP and 2 more ft. lbs. torque and weighs only 53 lbs. less than my '05 so what's my motivation to pay FIVE times the money I have in my '05--- come on Honda, after 18 years you can do better! "Speeding horsepower"? I like rapid acceleration and I think horsepower and torque just might have something to do with that.
I agree with @edtaylor6431 You are comparing 🍎apples to oranges🍊. Understandably, you're not a big website/channel like *Scotty Kilmer* who has 6.11M subscribers. And you gotta buy these bikes yourself. It's still a very interesting video, and Thank You Very Much 👌
Not true. I have an 04 Wing With 110k. I have an 18 wing Tour 6 speed. Ill take my 04 ANY Day over my 18 GW. My 04 has more power, handles 500% better than the 18. The 04 is just a better bike. And do not believe Honda's claims on weight. My 04 is lighter than my 18.
To be fair I should say it's the 2012 through 2017 that were heaver, They were over 100 lbs. heaver than my 04. Don't get me wrong, The 2018 is a great bike. It's just not as goog as the 2004 GW In fact, they should not call the 2018 a GW, it is actually more of an ST1800. When i think of it as an ST1800, I like it better!
Good point! I had the BMW R1200 RT 2017 model and at night I was often fumbling around to find what I wanted and pissed me off sometimes as it's important for safety and can lead to a frustrated rider...
Greetings, WOW what a fantastic detailed video 🇺🇸🍾🎉🇺🇸 How is the engine heat, any vibrations, how is the handling low speed parking lot. Thank you so much for assisting me. Keep producing more videos
Heat was not an issue for me, bike is smooth and good handling all around and very easy to ride as I stated in the review. I greatly appreciate your support and thanks for watching and commenting!!! 🦾
Thanks for the great channel! I've been a staunch fan of the BMW boxer engine motorcycls al my life, but in this case theGoldwing is for me the superior machine. It's a seriously dificult decisionto make and highly subjective. It also dpends very much on the rider feel, confidenceand trust in the machine. Ride what feels right for you.
I admit to never owning a beamer boxer. The repair cost horror stories scare me 😬. Plus, the nearest dealer is a 140-mile round trip. Thanks for your comments!!!
Well, that solves the dilemma of your FJR verses Goldwing video.... I have the same year and color GL1800 as you. Plus a Fatboy and a 200 HP VMAX 1700. Also a first gen Vmax 1200 (145 HP). Love your riding style... I'm usually redlining the GW.
Yeah, unfortunately it doesn't take much to redline a Wing, lol. You have a volatile stable of bikes. BTW I'm fresh out of Harleys. Thanks for commenting Flash!!!
I'm biased, but I'm also prone to long trips, and so, comfort wins. In a situation where I have two bikes, and one must go, the most comfortable ride wins.
Yes, the Wing is definitely more comfortable but the BMW is a thrill to ride, for only about 30 minutes 😬. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!!!
@@JSProjectWild At one point, I had two bikes, one for road trips, and one for riding around town/goofing off with my friends locally. It's great, if one can afford to do it. I can't, any more, and my current bike, an 07 XVS650 is mine simply because she is reliable, she'll start every time I go out to start her, which was an upgrade from my 96 VT 1100 Shadow, which finally got to feeling her age, after sitting for several years before I got her.
Thanks for the sub!!! I recently looked at an older 650GS with only 6k miles but haven't pulled the trigger. It's going to need an aftermarket seat also.
I've had many bikes over the years and my 02 Gold Wing is the finest one of them all AND Mama likes the comfort too! Keeping Mama happy is what it's all about. I rode a friends new GW the other day and its even smoother than mine but I don't like it $20,000 more than mine so I guess we'll keep on riding 'ol Ruby a while longer. 😊👍I just sub'd as well 👌
Yes sir I still have the wing and still wish it had 40 more horsepower and I too see no reason to pay 20 G's more for about the same thing. That BMW was some kind of fun but only for about 40 miles. Thanks for watching and commenting and special thanks for subbing. More to come!!!
Great video. I kind of agree with @suds in that the bmws are expensive to own but I'd love one. On another note, I live in Jackson township. I see from your videos you're close.
which bike you sold? If i may ask? 6 months ago i look at k1600gt from 2011-2014. And also the Goldwing. Bought the goldwing. Last Januari, Because i didnt know for sure how bad the maintenance cost where of the beamer. Also a lot other reasons beside that. Have a nice day! Thanks for the upload.
Sold the beamer. Even though I do all repairs myself the parts cost alone are prohibitive in the case of a failure. Still have the Wing of course. Thanks for watching and commenting!!!
@jsprojectwild8351 my brother works for bmw.. he's a new rider . but purchased, a 250 cc. Lucky for him he gets to sign out any bmw bike ... so he waiting to get more experience, then he will out a few bikes .. he says the labor cost & parts are crazy
Vote for the GW ! If I want to really go fast I get a Ducatti...... BMW has several features I did not Like, The seat after weared under the sun you will repent, the no backlights on the buttons, the assembly between the tank and fearing no go for the BMW "quality and overpricing" On the GW deffinitely the only think I would like is to se those 1800 to dvelop better just a little extra and a color screen as a standard and upgrade to old models .... out of it GW wins!
Great video i own a older yamaha royal star and I'm going to sell it for either the goldwing or the BMW ,and I'm like you I would love the extra horse power although the honda should have more then my yamaha , I'm 62 and I would like to do a 200 mile ride without stopping every half hour and Finnish a ride without feeling beat up ,so comfort is the top of my list and when my wife comes want her comfortable to, so if you happen to be selling your wing let me know I'm in Northern California, I really appreciate your video and honesty and will be subscribing as I will be buying other bikes for different occasions, I tried the adventure route with a 2014 VStrom although a great bike I feel a Enduro bike is better for off rode and a touring bike for touring and a road bike for playing and short cumutes, I will be subscribing to your channel
My 2008 Royal Star Tour Deluxe had 98HP (short vid of it on my channel) and my Wing has around 125. And yeah, wing is still king of comfort and I still have it. Thank you sir for watching, commenting and subbing!!! 🦾
I noticed that you compared your older 2005 Goldwing to a newer BMW and a newer FJR in a previous video. That should tell you the quality of Honda Goldwings. Sell both and get a newer Goldwing (2012 - 2017). The newer Goldwings (18+) are really nice, but I will never be in that category, or need to be in my opinion. The buttons and wheel issue is a mute issue for me. Too many distractions with both, so I don't use either. And now with bluetooth in my helmet, I've got all I need.
Wow, thanks Joe. I can only report the experiences I have with the bikes I own so it's good to hear that others have the same experience with their similar models. Thanks for watching and commenting!!! 🦾
i didn't view all videos (i will )i have a great experience with the AMSOIL .make the engine much quieter ,shift much better ,,i used in florida w-5 40 . bmw and GW. boths . my previous bikes 3 FJR -S 3 Goldwings, 2 k-1600 ,and one concourse (only for used 100-miles ) that not for me, i got SAME result i keep a bimer.
It is a choose between spirited and comfort riding. The k1600 is better on the former, the Goldwing on the latter. I prefer the spirit over the comfort, and the k1600 is still comfortable
K bikes are great till you need to replace the ball joints in the wheel carrier assembly (front forks) at approx $390 CDN each + labor... or any other part for that matter. Ask me how I know 😆. My next ride will be a GoldWing
The wing, hands down Truth be told if you need to make changes to the settings it should be while your stopped on both bikes, as your going to lose some focus with either setup
I had no issues with handling at any speed with the BMW. The FJR1300 however is top heavy at low speeds and even more so when full of fuel. Thanks for commenting!!!🦾
i life in western Europe. The bmw is cheaper here to buy second hand. Last year i bought Gl 1800 2005 also. I like the bike very very much. Honda over BMW for me.
Mind you, being able to convert the Beemer to a sport tourer makes a huge difference if you enjoy that type of ride more. Heck, difficult choice! They're both magnificent machines! I just have a thang for the 'Wang!
I totally agree---kept the Wing but have been looking for a higher horsepower adventure bike. Can't find any deals---all use bikes are high! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!!! 🦾
So, I've researched DAB and lots of folks are complaining that their newer BMW GTL's have terrible reception, way worse than FM on those bikes. You might want to check out the GTL forums.
@@JSProjectWild Maybe DAB isn’t so established where you are. We have it Norway for 7 years now. Works grest here FM dosn’t exhist here for radio stations.
@@James.984haid I found this after doing a search----"Why is there no DAB radio service in the US? Because we already have a digital broadcast standard for FM and AM radio here in the United States. It's called In-Band On-Channel (iBOC), developed by iBiquity in the late 1990s, and rolled out in 2003 to radio stations choosing to upgrade to this technology."

That Goldwing is just beautiful.

Good prediction, yes, I still have the Honda. Thank you for watching and commenting!!! 🦾
Ask a passenger what they think of the BMW. They will pick the GL every time.
Yes, I have heard that many times. You can almost surmise that by just looking at the two bikes together. Fortunately, that is something I don't have to worry about 😉. Thank you for watching and commenting!
That's why i have an 09 goldwing. I don't think there's a more passenger conscious bike on the road....and she's worth it.
Broke 3 laws in the first 3 seconds….respect!!!
Well, that may be a slight exaggeration, and hey, I was in Mexico 😉😁.
Thanks for watching!!!
Backlight issue is only a problem for the fist week or two, after that you never look at them again as muscle memory kicks in
Thanks for watching.
Ha! This is what I have. 2007 GL1800 and 2016 GTL. Have no heart to part with either one :)
Right, I know the feeling. Thanks for commenting!

I did the opposite the Goldwing 2018 model was/is a garbage bike that couldn’t decide what it was, the K1600 does it all

better start an escrow account for the first valve adjustment on that K1600GTL 🤣

the wing sure does seem like a dog compared to that beemer. you kept the wing? are you bored with the wing yet?
If one thinks about it, I guess acceleration is just a small percentage of ride time. The wing does all else well. Thanks for watching!!!
Keep the BMW!!! Much nicer design. More "sporty" ,less "old man" motorcycle..

If you were asking, I still have them both.
Talking about FM radio. Its out of date. You need DAB radio.
So, I've researched DAB and lots of folks are complaining that their newer BMW GTL's have terrible reception, way worse than FM on those bikes. You might want to check out the GTL forums.
@@JSProjectWild Maybe DAB isn’t so established where you are. We have it Norway for 7 years now. Works grest here FM dosn’t exhist here for radio stations.
@@James.984haid I found this after doing a search----"Why is there no DAB radio service in the US? Because we already have a digital broadcast standard for FM and AM radio here in the United States. It's called In-Band On-Channel (iBOC), developed by iBiquity in the late 1990s, and rolled out in 2003 to radio stations choosing to upgrade to this technology."
