STOP THE HYPE! || 2026 HONDA GOLDWING TRIKE || Honest Reliability Test
STOP THE HYPE! 🛑✋ Is the 2026 Honda Goldwing Trike actually as reliable as they say?
Everyone is calling the 2026 Honda Goldwing Trike the “perfect” touring machine, but today we’re cutting through the marketing noise. We’re putting this $45,000+ beast through an Honest Reliability Test to see if Honda has truly fixed the issues that plagued recent years, or if you’re just paying for a shiny 12.3-inch screen. 🏍️📉
In this 8k deep-dive, we investigate:
• The Recall Shadow: Has the Crankshaft Primary Drive Gear Bolt issue (recall #24V-801) been permanently solved in the 2026 production line?
• Fuel Pump Reality: Checking if the impeller density issues that caused stalling in previous GL1800 models have been factory-corrected.
• The “Weight” Strain: How the extra 300+ lbs of a trike conversion affects the long-term health of the 1833cc Flat-Six and the 7-speed DCT.
• Infotainment Glitches: Testing the Skyline™ OS for real-world bugs—does the Apple CarPlay/Android Auto actually stay connected on a 500-mile haul?
• Maintenance Math: The “Hidden Costs” of owning a trike that no showroom will tell you about.
Is it still a 200,000-mile machine, or is the complexity of 2026 tech starting to wear down the legend? If you’re looking for the unvarnished truth before dropping your life savings, this is the only review you need to watch. 🛰️🛡️
