    You're a man after my own heart Andy. I'm looking at trading my 2019 Africa Twin . Sadly I'm aging faster then my A T and am finding it a bit harder to manage. Thanks to your great review of the NC700 DCT I've decided to go in that direction. It ticks all the boxes in a bike which will allow me to ride on for a few more years ( I've just turned 74).

    I am in the process to trade in an 2017 NC750X DCT and a 1998 Goldwing for a 2022 Goldwing Tour DCT and will keep the 700X DCT for all around riding. Still I am with you. But the better suspension and brakes make it worth for riding with wife and dog. Looking forward to the spaceship, although I will miss the sound of the 1500 when shuffling around and the refinement of the 750X, although there are newer and better, albeit lower, models out.

    Barry I’m sure you’ll like it, I’ve just changed from the Tuono factory to the NC750 X but without DCT. Nothing wrong with the DCT, I had it on my VFR 1200 , it’s just that I like changing gears ! The only downside of the Honda is the lack of thrust at motorway overtakes, but apart from that the comfort in the saddle and actually been able to hear music playing in my helmet is great. I loved the Tuono, but after long rides it was sensually overload..

    Hi Andy, what a surprise - a good one - love the colour and I’m so pleased Carole doesn’t miss out, initial thoughts were “what about all the trips you are planning”. Dealerships in Australia usually offer a full tank upon pickup, or at the least we insist on it. Usually done by the service department. Having said that, when we picked up the Tiger 900 Rally Pro from the one and only dealership in Adelaide we were promised a full tank of fuel only to find it had a sniff of an oily rag in it, a 40+ and windy day to boot for the ride home 80kms away. Found a servo off the freeway luckily. We soon let them know about it and they gave us a free tank of juice at the 1000km service. May you have lots of memorable trips on your new Gold Wing. Cheers!

I haven't toured in one, but I've also ridden a Chieftain Dark Horse, an R1250GSA and the new Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer. I think they're all cumbersome things, unpractical at anything under 25mph, when filtering or on spirited riding on twisty B-roads (all of which I eventually do when I'm touring), the gas mileage is pretty poor and they all look a bit silly / orthopedic. Anything over 255kg or 260kg is, in my opinion, pretty much pointless as an exercise on motorcycling. I'd rather tour on something like a 1290 Super Duke GT; if I'm carrying so much stuff that that isn't enough I simply use the car. Again, I'm only 5ft8in (barefoot) and I weigh a pretty svelte 65kgs (naked), so if you're a beast of a man your mileage may vary. Me and my girl are also fit and pain-free, fortunately, so we don't see the point of touring on a couch - again, when the ultimate comfort is the priority we simply take the car.

    Had us going for a bit there! Can't be many folks who trade up the same bike given how much choice there is, so a great testament to the Goldwing and its strengths. Agree about the guys at Dobles, they are not my closest Honda dealer, but they are the most responsive, helpful, and friendly, and they offer the cheapest servicing on my X-ADV. Biggest issue with tourers is how often they get used v the cash locked up in them, but you seem to have beaten that challenge. Excellent.

    Gorgeous. Here in the US that color is called Ultra Blue. Here it’s got a nice silver pin striping along the edge separating the two tone dark and lighter blue. I know this because I took delivery of my 22 DCT DCT Tour airbag July 27. I have the shipping crate covering from Japan on my garage wall. My 3rd Wing since 84. Simply bonkers about the Gold Wing. I’ve enhanced the bike’s visibility even more with an assortment of Gold Strike LED lights, modulating brake light and an F4 20” recurve windscreen. Now it’s go time! Huge Congrats to you Missenden. Cracking good choice. Ride safe and often. ATGATT.

    Exactly like my new bike I got mid March... first one on Vancouver Island. Put 6200Km on it so far. Mexico and back. Not sure if I absolutely love it or hate it. Other than breaking my leg by getting my boot caught under it, the transmission is a bit 'clunky' starting and stooping. I think it is 'gear lag', but need to talk to my dealer about it. It has a 'bump' starting from a stop. Our third GW, my 'one up' said it is the most comfortable bike she has ever been on, other than the wind comes around me and hits her in the chest. Looking forward to hearing what your Ms. thinks about that. The POI on the maps is missing and the right rear signal no longer works. Three year warranty is standard in Canada. Backup 'walking mode' is awesome, but the forward does not make any sense. The colour is very nice, and I do like the trim... except that makes me over cautious about scratches.

    We have the 2020 goldwing and notice the lack of luggage space compared to our former bike (pan European). Until we can follow you to an upgrade, we manage with an Oxford Drybag fixed to the luggage rack that the wing came with..otherwise we would struggle on long tours.

    Well the Thumbnail made it kind of obvious... but no negativity from me - new bike day is always good and got to say the blue is epic! One thing you might appreciate is the uprated sat nav - has an improved GPS trackers and also is fitted with the Euro New Standard equivalent! Surely worth taking Mrs TMF out to test - as I know the old one (sat nav) left you disappointed!

Perhaps one day in the future I shall have a go on one. New bike day is always a treat! I got my Kawasaki z650RS last weekend, after nearly 10 months of waiting! There’s only 2 of them in Hong Kong, and mine is the only green with gold wheels! What a treat it is to ride, every chance I get!
