Where do you see reverse added? I've seen rumors by others, but not on Honda's site. It would seem that would make it into the changes described on the page.http://powersports.honda.com/cruiser/2015/gold-wing-f6b.aspx

I'm so sorry but you have missed last news...
At EICMA 2015 and at KOLN you can see the 2015 with reverse, cruise, black exhaust and matt silver paint (for Italy)

I read at powersports site...
I can ASSURE in Europe we have available the electrical reverse gear...

Maybe in USA the reverse isn't available for 2015..

No reverse for 2015 models in USA...Who needs it anyway??..Just be careful where you park and no problems..More weight to contend with anyhow!!

I could use it.
I like to back my bikes into my garage. My driveway has enough slope to make backing the 'B arse first into the garage a daunting, but do-able task. Electric assist would sure be nice for me, but just like cruise, it's obviously not a deal breaker.

Of couse reverse gear isn't NECESSARY but the biggest problem is the fall of value of 2013/14 models WITHOUT reverse...

I think isn't impossible to ADD a reverse (the powerplant and final transmission is equal to the GOLDWING) but I don't know how much it could costs...

Ktm add a ABS working when you BREAKS hard while leaning in Adventure1190 2014; if the customers wants, he can UPGRADE (400$ payin') his own ABS 2013 version to the 2014 version that works when breaks while cornering...

I doubt cruise control will be an available OEM retrofit item from Honda.

No reverse offered in the U.S. I wouldn't pay extra for it anyway, but would have paid extra for electronic cruise control. That being said, the Kaoko throttle lock works flawlessley and holds speed just as well as any electrnic cruise I've owned. For around $120 versus $1000+ I'll stick with the Kaoko.

2015 only Delux comes with cruise control and both will have black exhaust . So , no worries - Mother Honda will raise the price , but do not count on ABS , or reverse .

I can see how all those mountainous regions of Florida would be an issue.:icon_lol:
