Motorcyclist Magazine Compares the 2018 BMW K1600 Grand America vs. 2018 Honda Goldwing Tour

2018 BMW K 1600 Grand America

Here at Northern California Motorcycle Dealers we know that motorcycles are not one size fits all for the majority of riders. Each motorcycle and each brand of motorcycle offers something different. This year, both BMW and Honda released two amazing luxury motorcycles: The BMW K 1600 Grand America and the Honda Goldwing Tour. Although they are both fantastic vehicles, they have some pretty big differences between them. In fact, Motorcyclist Magazine recently did a comparison review to see which motorcycle offered more for the rider. Here’s what they found:
