Honda Gold Wing Tour Automatic DCT (2026) — from $30,500
Gold Wing Tour Automatic DCT swaps the manual for Honda’s 7-speed dual-clutch — left-foot freedom in Phoenix traffic.
Same Tour comfort and flat-six with DCT shift logic riders either love immediately or need a demo to trust.
About $30,500 MSRP. Reverse and cruise still in the toolkit.
From a Phoenix garage point of view, that matters: summer heat, monsoon oil slicks, and freeway miles on the 10/17 stack reward honest ergonomics and modern rider aids more than brochure poetry.
Who it’s for: tourers who want DCT ease with full Tour kit
Who should look elsewhere: manual-shift purists
Bottom line: Tour luxury without clutching through the 101
Would you DCT a Gold Wing Tour?
