2009 Goldwing Info - Rumor?


Quote:
Honda Motor Company today announced its plans for the new 2009 GL-2000 Goldwing touring bike. The new Goldwing will replace the industry-leading GL-1800 Goldwing which went into production in 2001.

The 2009 GL-2000 Goldwing will feature a larger 2.0 litre (2000 cc) 6-cylinder engine matched to a new 6-speed transmission. Honda claims the new engine will produce 165 horsepower and 157 foot pounds of torque. "This new powerplant and transmission should provide the kind of power and torque Goldwing owners have come to expect" a company official says. With the new 6-speed transmission, the 2.0 liter engine turns only 2,500 rpm at 70 miles per hour.

The new Goldwing will increase the safety of its riders with standard ABS brakes on all 2009 models. A rider airbag is also available as an option on the level 4 model.

The 2009 GL-2000 will be offered in the following configurations:

Standard features on all 2009 GL-2000 Goldwing models:


- New 2000cc 6-cylinder engine with 6-Speed transmission
- Linked ABS brakes (front and rear)
- Dramatically improved suspension with adjustable pre-load front and rear
- 6.9 gallon fuel capacity
- Adjustable seat (can be raised/lowered up to 1.5 inches) and rider backrest can be moved forward/backward.
- Adjustable windscreen (electronically adjustable is optional)
- Cargo capacity has been increased to 45 liters per saddlebag and 65 litres for the trunk.
- Heated handgrips and heated seat
- L.E.D. tail/brake lights and lighted trunk spoiler
- New instrument cluster includes speedo/tach/engine temp/voltage/ambient temp/gear indicator/tire pressure/trip computer (see below)
- DC Accessory Outlet in dash glovebox
- Trip Computer displays: Miles to Empty/Avg Miles Per Gallon/Current Miles Per Gallon
-Intercom features improved audio quality and passenger volume/on/off switch
-Honda Warranty 3-year Unlimited Miles (up to 4 year optional extended warranty)


BASE MODEL - includes comfort package (heated handgrips and seat), ABS brakes front and rear, 85-watt 4-speaker stereo with MP3/iPod connector.

COMFORT PACKAGE - includes BASE model features + electonically controlled windscreen, Homelink remote garage door opener, integrated anti-theft device.
$20,499

PREMIUM PACKAGE- includes all comfort package features + 120-watt 4-speaker stereo with MP3/iPod connection/optional XM/SIRIUS radio/Bluetooth capability, Electronic tire pressure monitoring system, integrated NAVI navigation system with Bluetooth remote programming capability using MapSource and compatible laptop, integrated fog/driving lights, HID Xenon headlights.

SAFETY PLUS PACKAGE - includes all PREMIUM features + Rider SRS Airbag restraint system, rear-end collision proximity alert system, electonically controlled cruise control.


In addition, the completely re-designed Goldwing offers owners lower maintenance costs with easier access to regular maintenance areas such as air cleaner, oil drain plug, oil filter and oil dipstick. A quick-remove engine protector plate has also been added to guard the oil pan from potential damage caused my road debris.

The new Goldwing is expected to appear in dealer showrooms in September 2008 and will be offered in the following colors: Pearl White, Pearl Yellow, Pearl Orange, Illusion Blue, Black, Titanium and Illusion Red.

With the way Honda's styling department is going, it will probably look like this:

Re: 2009 Goldwing Info - Rumor?
165hp is a lot more power than I would want in the hands of a typical Goldwing rider. That said, I wonder if they are going to market it towards a different (younger) segment that currently looks towards the Concourse, FJR, or ST for a long distance tourer.

Smart move if you ask me. I would love to pick up a full touring bike with that kind of power. Problem for me is all my touring is two up. So, I must consider this factor. Most sport touring bikes (Connie, FJR, ST) aren't as conducive to comfort for the second person as the traditional full blown touring bikes are.

If Honda does this, +1 for them.

Anyone know what the curent wing has for HP? 165 does sound like alot...to us sport bikers with 400 pound bikes. You got to figure a rolling wing with loaded bags and two up is probaly pushing 1600 pounds or so.

HP was just over 100 I think and torque is around 105.
