just wanted to say how cool this site is, and i'm lovin' my new f6. I have been riding most of my life[i'm 53] and have put many miles the last few years on a h-d roadking. actually we've been blessed to have ridden in many states & had 104k on that bike. now i'm not Harley bashing, but I think i'm in a position to say that for me, I only thought I had a great touring bike until I studied, rode & bought the f6. there is NO COMPARISION! this bike does it all, and easier than the r-k. I knew the Harleys are behind on tech, & are more of a novelty item to the newbie crowd who want the status [which is fine] but I just always & still just want to ride, & ride hard as long as i'm able. I have found the perfect bike for me. it got to where it was embarrassing to go to the h-d dealers, but when the pirate crowd wanted to slam me for not enough chrome, or other issues of un coolness i'd just show them my odometer reading. I never fit in. thanks again for this site
