    Does not appear to be a 2017 F6B, at least not as of this post.

    ..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.

    Yo BIGLRY how long did it take you to train that fly?

    Riding a Goldwing is like opening a can of testosterone.

    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.

    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.
