Through the years:
mini-bike
Yamaha YZ-80
Yamaha 125 trail bike
'83 Suzuki GS 850
'87 Goldwing
'01 Valkyrie Interstate, totaled 2011
'97 Road King, purchased fall 2013, hated the vibration
'13 F6B Deluxe, early March

I was excited to hear about the new Valkyrie, but it's just too short. Saw the F6B and fell hard for it. Found a great deal on 5,000 mile and purchased with out riding it. Have ridden it around the block and now waiting for the temps to hit above 30 and dry pavement here in the Twin Cities.
