2015 Honda® Gold Wing® Valkyrie® ABS

2015 is a special year for the Honda Gold Wing®, and we're celebrating with a special 40th Anniversary key.

Some will take one look at the Valkyrie and declare it's all about style for the outrageous, in-your-face muscular presence. There are those who will say it's all about performance citing its enormous tire shredding 1832 cc flat six motor. Still others will point to the rigid twin spar aluminum frame and beefy 45 mm inverted forks and decide it’s all about handling. There are even some that will remember that the Valkyrie is part Goldwing and proclaim that its strength lies in the long haul. Well, the Valkyrie is all these things and more – its one hell of a good motorcycle.

Features May Include:

Engine/Drivetrain
  • The goal for the F6C’s engine was to produce a rush of acceleration at a split-second’s notice from a standing start. It also needed to provide epic, unforgettable drive from low rpm in top gear and offer up super-smooth throttle response everywhere in the rev-range.
  • Honda’s 1,832 cc horizontally opposed SOHC 12-valve six-cylinder unit has a real head start in the power delivery department. Fed by PGM-FI controlled fuel-injection with twin 40mm Keihin throttle bodies, it employs an F6C-specific 6.6-litre airbox and panel-type air filter. Bore and stroke is set at 74 mm x 71 mm, with compression ratio of 9.8:1.
  • The five-speed gearbox (which employs 5th as very much an overdrive for relaxed cruising) delivers the engine’s torque via shaft drive. The hydraulic clutch lever’s pull ratio has been revised to offer a lighter action – for stress-free operation.
Chassis/Suspension
  • The Valkyrie F6C employs the bare minimum of chassis needed to bolt a rider to its mighty motor. Constructed from lightweight multi-box aluminum sections the twin-spar frame is aided by the engine’s low centre of gravity (it also acts as a stressed member) to create superbly balanced handling at all speeds.
  • The 45 mm telescopic forks are matched to a Honda Multi-Action System (HMAS) monoshock that can be adjusted manually for spring preload; it works through Pro-Link on the single-sided aluminum swingarm. Spring and damping rates front and rear have been modified to suit the F6C’s weight reduction and urban cruiser intent.
  • For improved stability in naked form the front/rear weight bias has been adjusted to an effectively even 49.9/50.1, and the engine support beam’s rigidity balance subtly adjusted (made ‘softer’) for improved rider feel through the chassis. Wide, rubber-mounted swept-back handlebars provide leverage and control.
