It looks too much like a stealth bomber to me.

I voted: Fail.

I'm glad to see Honda doing something quite different with the Gold Wing other than just tweak the fairing or upsize the engine. This is different for Honda, but it makes the Gold Wing look like the PC800 (plastic maggot) with it's low but bubblous look; almost like a Maxi-scooter on 'roids.

Then Honda went and blacked it all out, not very original for a touring bike and it makes it look more like it's competitors. What bothers me is the 'Wing started the whole touring style and it doesn't need to look like everyone else, it's unique on it's own.

What I would have liked to see is a naked version (like they did in the late 70's) or even a slimmed down, less bulky one. Go on a diet! Does it need to be over 840lbs? Really? What about a 600lb or less one?

The Wing has its own well-defined and unique identity. It doesn't need to try (and fail) to ape an H-D Road Glide.

I like it, the styling, the power and the thought process behind it. I would have one, lotto permitting.

85 votes! That is a new week record for this completely new model from Honda! Well done! Looks like Honda did indeed design a cool and unique bike from the legendary Gold Wing.
