Honda GL1800 Gold Wing Bagger vs Suzuki GSX-S1000GT

The Honda GL1800 Gold Wing Bagger (2026) and the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda GL1800 Gold Wing Bagger is a touring bike with 1,833 cc, 124.7 hp and 373 kg; the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT is a touring bike with 999 cc, 150.2 hp and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 278.4 hp/ton versus 485.4 hp/ton. On this measure the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT is 74% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing Bagger covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 4.28 s and the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT in 2.91 s; the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT is quicker by 1.37 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 41.0 m for the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing Bagger (with ABS) and 45.0 m for the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Honda GL1800 Gold Wing Bagger stops 4.1 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 207 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 240 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing Bagger and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Suzuki GSX-S1000GT. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
