Much of this pulling a trailer. The Gold Wing Road Riders Association is an international group that promotes riding, fun, and safety and I am a local chapter Director in Oklahoma. The International Rally for GWRRA is in Tulsa Julk, 2009 (9,000 GoldWings are expected to attend) The GoldWing really has all the creature comforts for long distance riding. My favorite features are the cruise control (for that tired wrist) and the MP3 player/iPod plugin. The bike handles like a dream and has the power and torque to handle any road or almost any situation. Probably the best support for the GoldWing comes from the wives (or co-riders). It absolutely has the most comfortable pasenger seat of any road bike. With the addition of optional armrests, rear speakers, and helmet intercom set (the bike is already wired), the pasenger can relax and enjoy the scenery with music, CB radio updates, and color commentary from the driver. On long rides, my wife even takes naps back there. We often ride in groups of 5 to 10 bikes and keep in touch with the CB radios. The key conversation is usually "Where are we going to stop to eat?"

If so are they standard or is it some type of upgrade? Do the bikes handle IPod connections? If so are they standard or is it some type of upgrade?

On May 14th, I stopped and the car behind me did not. Yes, rearended with only 450 miles on the bike. I was able to keep it upright, and just a bang to my left shin. The car that hit me was a '94 Honda. I was able to drive it away from the scene, and after frustrating time with the insurance company of the car that hit my bike and the motorcycle shop in repair time, it is now back to 100%. I believe if I was on most any other bike, I would of had suffered some injuries and far more damage to the cycle. Goldwing in my mind is one of the safest motorcycles out there, but I am going to put more lights on it above what they come with. Enjoy yours if you got one. Doug.

I also couldn't find it even though I have searched for it on the Honda's motorcycle official site. However, I find this instead : FAQ : How can I identify the model and year of my Honda? One of the best ways to identify thousands of different models of Honda Motorcycles, ATVs and Scooters is to use American Honda's Motorcycle Identification Guide. This 524-page soft-cover book has photos, model years, color listings, selected technical information and Vehicle Identification Number ranges for every Honda Motorcycle, Scooter, Moped, ATC, FL and ATV sold in the United States by American Honda from 1959 through 2000.

Maybe the book could help you to find out the code number for Pearl White color of Honda Goldwing 2008. Alternatively, I suggest you to ask nearest dealer of Honda Goldwing in your area.

While other motorcycles may have one or two features which are really good; Honda has managed to put together a world class package in one motorcycle. It is comfortable to ride, powerful and yet manages to still be nimble, a combination that has kept me on the road more often than I care to admit. The added features, such as an on-board navigation system, the built-in airbag, superior luggage space, heated seats and grips (for these snowy days) and the ABS brakes are features that make this bike a joy to ride.
