OK,
With BMW and now Yamaha with new baggers, why is there no 2017 F6B on the Honda website?
More importantly, how can BMW sell a bagger $4k less than Honda??
Inquiring minds........

I didn't pay anywhere near MSRP for my Honda bagger, neither BMW MSRP or Honda MSRP...Originally Posted by F6B1911
As far as Yamaha's bagger, it's a V twin. In other words, meh.
Looks sweet to me!

Too many knooks and crannys for me. That's the stuff I look at....nightmare to maintain. Can't see anything knocking my B off it's throne.

I saw a Transcontinental while I was touring the Gaspe recently. The quality and design of it was impressive. However, it was 45 degrees F out and you could feel the heat coming off it standing next to it. Might be a good seller up this way but I can't imagine anyone would buy it I W. Texas in the summer IMHO.
Not a knock, just an observation of an otherwise nice looking bagger. One of the color trim levels reminds me of the old AMF days...maybe that's intended to evoke memories that Alzheimers hasn't already taken from us older riders.
I think on the whole each manufacturer has been playing it really conservative with colors on their newest cruisers.
Notice the lower cowl with knockouts for fog lamps. Hmmmm...where have we seen that before???

I guess they can afford to be a little aggressive in order to maneuver into that market space. I'm also guessing the BMW-B could also be used as a way to bring new customers to BMW with the hope of up-selling them either on the sales floor, or as trade ins later.
The BMW-B Has quite a few trim level$ as I understand it.
