Yes, it's the 2011 that was supposed to be the big model change. The rumor is that the 2010 will still be made in Marysville. The Japanese goldwing (made in japan) will be the new model if any. They may just stop production all together. Apparently, The bikes aren't selling as well as honda would like. I can't imagine why. $20000 + for a motorcycle? Please!

I heard from a good source that because of the import tariff... the 2010 MSRP will be over $35,000.00 for the base model..

I hear that the 2010 Wings are only going to be made in one color.....
Deep Red Wine... which is the best color after all .

You could do it on a scooter too..but it wouldn't be a Gold Wing. I have a cruiser too and I enjoy riding it...but no cruiser even comes close to offering what the Gold Wing does.

I heard that it will have a built in crush washer that never needs changing and an anti tire cupping device. Every new bike will also come with an automatic frame welding machine

It wouldn't surprise me if Honda just cut production and just made the same bike for the next 3 years or so with the way things are and all with people losing jobs. People can't buy motorcycles if they are not working.

Why would you spend all that money when you are not selling bikes.

Would you like to buy some waterfront property in Arizona??

Honda does not allow it's associates or staff to release information about the new model releases before it is released at the dealer shows.

Don't believe anything you hear from anyone before the release of information at the dealer shows.

Is it true that when you mash the horn button it yells "Banzai?"

There is rumor of a name change too. With the rise in costs; it will be called a PlatinumWing.

from my engineering buddies in Japan.... All new Wings will have airbags and will have radar with the auto braking system now found on high end cars. Also the undisclosed sized engine will have auto cylinder cut out for greatly improved mpg. Don't share this info with anyone else.

I heard they will be stealth so they can go thru radar without even being detected. Heads up display will be included only if you get the package that includes power seats, power brakes, and side airbags.

.

Just go to Google, enter 2010 Honda Goldwing then goto Images and it will come up with pictures of all the colors and a blow up of the new engine. Pretty impressive ! The Hydro Drive pictures are good also !
