I am digging this bike. I want to trade my white one in. All I have to do is convince the wife. :icon_biggrin:

It is sharp !!!!

[bobbyf6b]

It would look even better with a different seat and no trunk. :icon_wink:

Phillip, I agree with you. The moment I saw the pics of this 2014 all blacked out Wing, I told my wife that if I had seen that first...I never would have bought the F6B...I would have bought this Blacked out Wing.

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. :icon_lol:

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

Hey, it's only money :tissue:

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.

Convince the wife? Hell just go buy the thing like I did when I bought the F6B Deluxe on 09/11. If she loves you she'll get over it. If she doesn't then you can trade her in on a new model. Lol

When I rode into the garage with my Black F6B the wife stuck her head into the garage from the laundry room and said "You better be just test riding that"! I replied "Yep that's what I'm doing"! Still doing it too! Needless to say, it was quiet in the house for several days. Bought her a long needed new Chair. Now she loves it and say's its more comfortable to ride on than The HD Road Glide Ultra was....The F6B not the chair................Dickie

[wildman]

I think the f6b looks a lot sleeker.

[Mustangjake]

Fly me out to TX I keep her busy while you go get it then we go hunting till she calms down !

[J.F.Baird]

Seems to reason that f6b is the bike the man chooses and the gold wing is the bike his wife chooses.???Just sayin...

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

[Retired Army]

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

[srt8-in-largo]

Idk... the full Wing in white is the ticket IMO.

[Bowhunter1800]

IMO. ALL Blacked Out is the way to go!!!

[shooter]

Idk... the full Wing in white is the ticket IMO.

:yes: with lots of chrome.

[srt8-in-largo]

:yes: with lots of chrome.

EXACTLY :icon_biggrin:

But dam... I might have to broaden my opinion. Beautiful bike here.
