I have owned both. The only negative thing about the full wing is, "You will be stopping more often at Dairy Queens"

I believe the reason you see more mature people on Wings, BMW Rt and Harley Ultra Classics is they cost over $20,000, most people raising a family can't afford that. By the way before you buy that BMW check out the maintenance cost [ valve adjustment every 6000 Mi.] and good luck if you break down in Kansas or many other states. Dealers are far and few between. The only bad thing about owning a Wing, as far as touring, there is no better bike to step up to.
I pulled the trigger and purchased a Metallic Blue new 2013 with ABS tonight and had to say goodbye to my much loved F6B.
Thanks for the input, and I am going to missed the head turning as I rode by on the F6B.
Looked at the BMW and I am a low maintenance kind of guy, and love the Wing features, even if I'm 45 on an old mans bike. Lol
Cheers

I'm not far from being an "Old Man". Some mornings I feel like I'm already there!
I could see a having full Wing in my garage, but it would be difficult giving up my F6B. I'd have to keep both. Sweetie is toying with getting her license. She'd look good driving my "old" F6B... just saying.
The main reason I down/up graded to the 6 is the fact that the full wing I had was constantly wanting to stop for pie!!! I don't care for Pie!!

I ended up with my f6b because a buddy of mine bought a new level one wing and told me to ride it around the block. I came back and told him that ride just cost me a bunch of money.The very next weekend I got the f6.... I wanted a full wing but at 48 then the kid in me made me get the f6b. And I already have a trailer to go behind so I have more storage than I need.
No Big Daddy wing for me!! I love the F6B ride, has CB, GPS, Sat Radio, MP3's, Phone hookup, and enough room for my gear.......nope I'm sticking with the F6B.......just got back from a two week trip......no problems and had a great ride.
