    For those who complain about not having some of the regular Gold Wing accessories, how hard would it be to remove the trunk and replace the seat-- and have a better equipped "F6B?" Seems like an awfully costly approach for little return, but if you just have to have what you think you cannot do without...

    I can be done. All the parts are available. My guess is about $1500 - $2000 to complete. If I am correct, that is a good deal.

    If you had both bikes, you could swap rear ends and front fairing, they just bolt on, and sell the fake GL1800A.

    There is a dealership in the Carolinas that has done this mod and offers it.

    $4,000 for all of the parts and conversion to make it look like a F6B ....

    PLUS the cost of the Goldwing $23,000 - $29,000



    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    I had it done by Schroader's Honda. Yep, around $4K with heated Corbin seat and backrests. Well worth it for me as I wanted the F6B look, but couldn't leave all the Wing touring accessories like cruise control, heated grips, reverse, and air suspension.

    Has any one had a corbin for any length of time ? I have has corbins in the past on other bikes and found them to be like sitting on a board ... I had one I put 10k on a seat and was told it need break in time ... LOL
    I picked up a new black beauty 13 deluxe , its my 2nd f6b , when I sold it I got a smoken deal on a fullwing that I since sold also .
    I have my eye on a 2014 full black level 2 I would like to pick up and swap the f6b back on but not sure if there would be some one to buy a F6B with a trunk and no reverse ... LOL

    Eliminating the wife's couch is a convincing argument for purchasing a new ride.

    Riding a Goldwing is like opening a can of testosterone.
