    I did it now !!

    I have a C90 2006 with 35k miles.. I got a free ticket to the Timonium Bike Show.. Sat on the new Indians, BMWs and a few others.. I have always like the Wing.. But it was the fact that you could not remove the trunk that I did not like.. My friend has a Wing and we went to Tail of the Dragon this year.. I kind of know the bike... I have not rode one yet because I can't cover it if anything happens.. Thought about going to a dealer to ride one, but that trunk.. On the other hand I am perfectly happy with the C90, it's a great bike..
    At the show I looked at the Wing and thought not enough room between bikes then on the other hand I can't throw my leg over the Wing.. On a second thought I saw the Flat 6.. Threw my leg over and WAS DONE !!! Don't know how but I will have one this year if not next... Not kidding..

    Good luck in your search....I had an M109 and made the switch. This Honda is perfect for what I want. Has plenty of power. Like you, I didn't care for the trunk. Being single, no need for all that. The rally this year made me buy a luggage bag, but I prefer the look of this one the rest of the time.

    You have been bitten by the f6B flue bug. There is no resistance. The only cure is a large out poring of green stuff. Buying the bike will be the easy cure. Outfitting it is were it really gets ugly on the pocket book.🙈🙉🙊

    Been there done that....

    I also had a C90 that I was very happy with until that fateful day a local dealer was having an open house and I took a F6B for a ride.

    This is how it turned out for me......

    Watch for big discounts on the 2014 September/October 2016, got my 2013 for 13.5k new.
    Worth the wait!
    I too knew I'd have one eventually after the first time I saw it.

    Buy Used

    These bikes will run forever! Buy used!

    Spend sometime reading about all the modifications that we've made to our bikes, make a list, then get yourself a used 2013 that already has all the bells and whistles installed = with all your listed desires = windshield, seat, highway pegs etc., You can make a financial killing on a truly well informed decision. Make sure you keep an eye on the classified page on this site too.

    Here's an example that I would certainly recommend for you:

    Good luck hunting!
