    New Owner

    Picked up my new F6B last week and have been able to put about 300 miles on it. The weather
    here in Missouri has been pretty bad. I drove 4 hours to pick it up but it was well worth the time and effort.
    I have been looking around the website for about a year doing research and appreciate all of the great info the members are willing to share.
    I am a retired teacher/coach and I also referee D-I college basketball.
    Looking forward to the vast experience the website has to offer.
    Ride Safe.

    Congrats. I take delivery on mine next Saturday. I did research for a little over a year as well. Getting excited.

    Full on impulse buy

    Mine was a full on impulse buy. Bought a Shadow Phantom as a committed bike and after 90 days coouldnt stand it anymore. Just couldn't get comfortable. After looking at selling dealers website (Storm Lake Honda) for full wings i was ready for the full upgrade. (We had a 1500 for several years and loved it, just stop ridding after we relocated). Walked in and saw the "B" and an hour later was riding away with a HUGE smile on my face. Now any time I have the chance I jump on and go out for some entertainment. Absolutely a great bike for turning heads even in the Goldwing community. So glad I did what I did (thanks dad!)

    I am also a "newbie" to this site, I bought Hardrock's 2013 Standard and rode it home from Wisconsin yesterday. Wet ride most of the way, but it was a blast!.
    Second bike in garage is a 98 Valkyrie, Which has been driven coast to coast over the last 17 years, looking forward to a long relationship with this one as well

    I did a 600 mile round trip to pickup my new 2015. I've owned it for a couple of months now and absolutely love it.

    Welcome and enjoy the new ride !!!
