Sold my 16 Indian Scout to get into my F6B Deluxe, best thing I have ever done for a bike.
My first ride was a 1973 Triumph Hurricane. Rode it for 20+ years.
My buddy in Jacksonville FL has it now. So I can still ride it when down there.
Have to say, had I the mind to ride cursers, I would have settled on a Wing a long time ago.
Ive had everything else till this year.
At 65, I decided my last ride would be in luxury.
Wife doesn't ride with me any longer, so longer cross country trips are in order.
Check one more off the bucket list.
I have a ST1300 which I put 100,000 miles on and wanted to try something else. I was looking at Wings but when I saw my F6B I had to have it. I've only rode it a few months but I'm very happy with it. I ride about 10-12k a year so she should last me a long time. My wife and I do a few road trips each year, sometimes pulling a trailer and I commute daily on the bike when it's not winter. The F6B does all this very well.

I wanted one for years, kept my 2015 Wing. Picking up my, new to me, 2015 Blue B tomorrow. It has just over 9K miles on it.
I still have my 2010 V-Star 1300, but I bought a 2013 built F6B from another Aussie (Tony) here in Melbourne, Australia.

Traded in a 2006 Honda VTX 1300R on my 2013 F6B Deluxe. Just got tired of the noise and vibration. No more V twins for me!!!
From a Vulcan 1600 to Sportster to Dyna Super Glide to F6C Valkyrie, to Concours 14 now to the F6B. I hope there's no more changes in the garage over the next 5 years.

I went through a lot of different bikes before deciding the fun was over and got my B last spring.
But the fun just keeps on coming!
just took ownership of a NEW 2016 Silver F6B with 1.8 miles on it. I traded a 2015 Suzuki Burgman ( my 2nd one) and a 2015 Suzuki DR650 that had ridden very little. Im in Brush Prairie Washington, basically Vancouver Washington, basically a Suburb of Portland Oregon.
Hey,, I have a 2000 Shadow Sabre 1100,, 7 1/2 years of fun,, tired of being the short tank,,,, just bought 2013 F6B,,, wow Dallas texas
Copley Ohio and my new leftover 2016 is 8 days old and I love it!
I sold a Honda CB900 (919) just prior to my F6b purchase.
New to this site. Traded in my 2007 Suzuki M109R for a 2015 F6B with less than 5000 miles. Still waiting on delivery. Living in Rockdale Texas.
I think that’s a nice move. I did the same thing. Loved the M109, but this bike fit the riding I love to do. Long trips, meet others, and ride all day without issue. Don’t get me wrong, no matter what bike I’ve had, I always met pretty much friends for life.
I had a 2017 Indian Scout and a 1998 Valkyrie when I found my F6B on Craigslist. I talked with the owner on the phone and when we struck a deal I towed my trailer 7 hours down to Los Angeles and picked up the F6B. After I got the F6B home I made one 3 hour ride up in the foothills and immediately listed my Valkyrie for sale on Craigslist. I loved the Valkyrie, but the F6B was everything that the Valk was plus so much more. The Valk sold immediately and while I still have the Scout I'm seriously thinking of listing it because every time I decide to go riding I want to take the F6B and have to convince myself to occasionally take the Scout out just to keep the battery charged.
Sold one of my favorite bikes, a 2000 Valkyrie IS, kept my 98 Tourer. So I just purchased my Yellow/Blk 14 F6B with only 7,500 miles in Jan. Loving it right now and looking forward to my longer trips with this Awesome looking & riding bike!

HBWinger,
That’s the best color! Beautiful... well of course I have the same color ����
The new wing has a very similar blue, but I don’t know what year(s)
Sold a 2002 Harley Electraglide Classic and 2007 Yamaha FJR-1300 to buy a 2013 F6B.
Wife wouldn't let me have all 3, claimed she needed space in garage to park her car. :cool:
Bike I've owned:
Honda Pacific Coast
Yamaha Warrior
BMW K1200GT
Bonneville T120
NE Oklahoma, sold a 2011 Heritage to buy a 5000 mile black F6B Deluxe. Love the bike
Started out with Honda 2006 VTX 1800C, 2013 F6B Black, 2015 F6B Anniversary model, another 2015 F6B anniversary Model, and another one 2015 F6B anniversary model I currently have and intend to keep awhile :).
Notice I like that 2015 F6B, best color, most reliable, and most fun with DD tires.
No you did NOT misunderstand :), after I was 2 months without it, and thinking every day of it, I had to go get another one, the last one I promise::))))
So happy to be riding again with my buddies, and feeling the air in my face.
Gone make it out to your neck of the woods again one of these days, heck maybe we might meet at some halfway point rally?
Be good, stay safe.

Well nice to know I'm not losing it, not yet! :rolleyes: Nice to have you back. I bet it would be hard for me to give up riding as long as I know I'm capable like you found out. So if you get this way you absolutely need to let me know. I will be in Billings with the Valkyrie group in June, InZane 2022. A 2 week trip I'm looking forward to. Riding up with a couple others from FL. Coming up in 2 weeks the wife and I will be out in Napa. We went about 3-4 years ago and really enjoyed it. We've invited our daughter from Raleigh, NC so her and her boyfriend will be meeting us there. Staying at the same place we stayed before. Really liked it, Meritage Resort and Spa. Wife's a teacher and it is her Spring Break. Enjoy the ride bud! :cool:
