    The thought/rumor, but it's been thought previously, is that 2018 will be the year for a new Gold Wing. If that turns out to be true, I'd be surprised if the F6B is included in the offerings.

    Honda really stays very "tight" with new releases, but my guess, with the terribly slow sales volume of the F6B, it is a "goner" ....Too bad as it is one the nicest bikes I have owned over the years and I have had a bunch!!!...Ride safe

    Wonder if the f6b styling was a test for the new GW / bagger style....?

    I am 56 y.o. now and I am pretty sure I will not need another bike the rest of my life, just have to dump the Sportster, so even if they do discontinue it so what. I used to swap out every two years because I was looking for the right bike that fit me. There is nothing this bike needs, especially after the Torq Loopz, well maybe the Daytona mufflers, after that I'm done. If you're not going to get rid of it and not play the trade-in game let them do whatever they want because they'll always, at least in the forseable future, have the Goldwing so the parts will always be there. It's like a Rolex Daytona, they only make a certain amount every year and that's it.

    I completely understand. Just to clarify, I'm trying to "time" my purchase ie: do I get an F6B in 2017.....cause they may be discontinued? Or do I wait for the new (someone suggested 2018) GoldWing cause it just might be, even better with quick detach backrest, luggage rack, aft trunk, and super slick F6B styling.....? Hmmmmmm.......
