..and absolutely no changes that I could discern, except the color. No 2017 airbag model, and no F6B! Appears the "new" rumored 'Wing will be a 2018 model.

Yep, they are only showing the matte silver 2016 F6B.

Among the listed "Innovations" on the 2017 GoldWing are the "Pro-ArmŽ rear swing arm" and "Improved ride quality". No other details. Could it be the 2017s come equipped with the full Traxxion suspension upgrade? I'm guessing it's probably something less exciting, like a different color O-ring in the fork ...

It said that very same thing on the 2015 and 2016 models. From what I can see the only change is color.

My Honda dealer speculated that he thought there wouldn't be any changes until 2018 because of the earthquake earlier this year had shut down the factory for awhile and Honda was behind.

They still have an "adjustable air suspension" mentioned as offered on the F6B page... did I miss something?!?!:shrug:

I love the new Goldwing color blue/black with silver stripe. My dealer now has a matte white F6B in stock, was looking at it the other day and just can't bring myself to like that color,... looks like primer and unfinished.

I think the blue scheme looks great also and would be my first choice. (If I didn't already have my even more awesome red/black model.) :icon_lol::yes:

Yeah the white doesn't do anything for me. Only thing I thought was it would be a good base color for graphics.

I saw Adrians white and I would have gotten it if available at the time. I think it's one of the best colors. I love mine for the ease of care, but the white is awesome in person.

Agree. I would've bought white myself; if it was available in 2015.

With a white half helmet, black visor. leather jacket and modulating headlights... cagers will be leery of you :shhh:

And here I was, a little reluctant to post that picture because of the junk on my tool bench and shop towels all over the top of my tool box. :yikes: :icon_lol:
