    Hi folks ! I just bought a brand new, badazz 40'th anniverssary black F6B. I have owned 3 previous Goldwings, and currently own a VFR800 and a bunch of dirtbikes. I did have to trade in my beloved VF750F Interceptor that I bought new in 1983 though.Put about 100 miles on it yesterday going to Galveston,TX, and planning a ride to Big Bend . I'm still trying to figure out all of the buttons on this thing !

    Congratulation Jeff, and I know you will Enjoy this Bike. But are you sure it is a 2015 (40th Anniversary) Because the Black was only done for 2013 and 2014

    I was wondering about the 40th and being black myself. I first wanted a black but even more wanted cruise control which first was available in 15 which is the 40th anniversary edition. Was told black was last available in 14. I settled for a matt grey and happy with it. If you have a 40th it will have emblems stating so right above the center cubby and below the key and another on the front cowl below the shield. I don't think anything is special other than those emblems. I guess it could be a mistake somewhere or the bike was repainted. Or as I like to say I've been wrong before. Good luck with your new bike either way.
