Hey Folks, this is my first post! I am an immigrants from the Triumph forum having spent the last 10yrs on a Bonneville and a Thunderbird LT. As if today, I am the proud owner of a red 2013 F6B!
Of course I have a million questions but let me get to the important stuff -
I am 6'3" and need the handlebars brought back and up - suggestions?
Can I lower the footpegs or do I go aftermarket?
I need a taller shield - suggestions?
Will a different seat help me "fit" better?
Sorry to slop up the forum but you know what a pain new guys are!
Thanks in advance

Welcome to the group. You can find many answers to your questions here, the search is your friend. Many ideas for bars, seats, and windshields. My suggestion is seat first, Russel Daylong is my choice. Buy a Madstad shield and be done the first time. Hello bars are the ultimate for adjustability, but other options may work for you. Your milage may vary and lots of other opinions out there.
Have fun making the fastest color out there your own

Welcome to the Forums!!!
.welcome20.'welcome gang'
This is a motorcycle that you will be simply
amazed with.

I recommend you start here:

http://hondaf6b.com/showthread.php?9094-New-F6B-Owners-Here-s-some-collected-gouge-to-get-you-going-Updated-15-Apr-2017

And work your way around the Garage section and the Accessories section.
Then the General section.
We have a history going back to when the first ones rolled off the line.

Our Annual Rally is the first weekend in September in Pigeon Forge, there's a thread in the General Section about that.
Cheers,
Steve

I added the Roadsmith Comfort Controls to my 6. Priced a bit high but make all the difference in the world.

Also added Ergo II's for a change of foot position.:lolup:

Welcome to the forum.
If ya don't like the stock saddle then it should be the FIRST thing to change as if the butt ain't right nothing you do to the bars or shield is going to help and once your a$$ is happy and you know where your eye level is then the shield is next. I run a modded Klockwerks Flair, but there again there are many shields out there, some good some great and some not so good.
Now it is a toss up to do bars or pegs next, I did the bars and went with HeliBars due to my rather large size and needing all the adjustments they provide, but Rocky comfort risers work good for a lot of guys and are a lot cheaper. https://www.helibars.com/categories/Handlebar-Risers-%26-Adapters-by-Bike-Brand/HeliBars-for-Honda/Honda-F6B/
You can get 3/4" drop foot pegs & mounts from Kuryakyn, but you do lose some ground clearance with them or the mini boards by Kury are another good choice.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome & tips.
I have seen mention of Rocky's risers in several posts - does anyone know if they are still available or how I contact Rocky? I really want to bring the bars back a full 2" but want to hold off on the Heli's until I'm sure there are no other options.
Thanks again,

Heli bars & a Russell Day long. Both are worth every penny.
