On October 12, 2023, Honda Motor Europe confirmed the return of the Gold Wing, CMX500 Rebel, and CMX1100 Rebel in the European market. All three models continue mechanically unchanged for 2024. At the same time, all three models receive new colors for the new year.
2024 Honda GL1800 Gold Wing and GL1800 Gold Wing Tour
The 2024 Honda GL1800 Gold Wing comes in a new Matt Armoured Green Metallic colorway for 2024, and it gets brown details on the engine cases. This bike only comes with Honda’s Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) fitted as standard.
Choose the 2024 Honda GL1800 Gold Wing Tour instead, and you’ll get both DCT and an air bag as standard equipment. Here, the new color choices are Heavy Gray Metallic or Pearl Glare White. Both colors get Graphic Black details, while the Heavy Gray Metallic variant also gets brown engine covers.
Opt for the manual transmission Gold Wing, and your only 2024 color choice is Heavy Gray Metallic.
