2017 Honda Gold Wing Audio Comfort Navi XM ABS www.Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits

Smooth power

Powerful fuel-injected 1,832 cc six-cylinder engine produces smooth, effortless power while surpassing the California Air Resources Board (CARB) emission standards. An ECU-controlled closed-loop emission control system utilizes two oxygen sensors to constantly deliver a precise air/fuel mixture, while two exhaust catalytic converters further reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides. And what’s more, efficient stainless steel six-into-two exhaust system produces a pleasing, powerful sound.

Excellent handling & manoeuvrability

Low, forward engine placement and solid engine-mounting produce excellent road handling characteristics and impressive low-speed manoeuvrability.

Quiet operation

Silent-type camshaft chains with automatic adjusters provide reliable, maintenance-free operation. Parallel two-valve cylinder-head design utilizes direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation and requires no 1,000 km service. The Nickalloy crankshaft bearing caps provide quiet operation throughout the engine’s operating temperature range, and powerful 1,300-watt alternator uses a fluid-damper (viscous coupling) system to minimize alternator noise.

Optimum efficiency

Two 40 mm-diameter throttle bodies deliver air to six specially designed Keihin 50-psi high-pressure programmed fuel injectors (PGM-FI). Fuel is delivered through four nozzle tips in each injector, producing an atomized fuel mixture that is highly combustible for optimum efficiency and power.
