It looks like I am headed towards the new tour. I'm not too certain when I'll switch over as it will depend on the sale of the B. I'll let you know my thoughts when I get it.

It's a very nice upgrade. Tech is far superior....If you have any questions I maybe able to answer them...Enjoy!

Thanks Steve. I am going w/ the basic tour. Not the airbag or DCT. I saw no reason to spend the extra $ for the DCT. I'll probably throw highway pegs and fog lights on first, then a Garmin, and that will probably do it for my changes. Maybe the windshield that lets you use Windex (love bugs dontcha know!).

I bought a 2018 red one. I'll take possession this weekend.

They are great bikes.
We are selling a lot of parts for them and everyone we talk to is extremely happy. All of our local customers can not say enough good things about them.
More parts are coming out all of the time.
We will be getting one sometime, not sure if this year. We would want a 2021 only to start with the most up to date for parts. The 2021's have been slow to come out, will see when they are available.
We hope to start getting more traffic on here for the new bikes also.

I already got some highway pegs and fog lights. :-)

They do look nice...
I have not ridden one yet so I am always wondering if the new one blocks the wind as good as the previous model.

No. It is slimmer. I ride in almost any non-ice weather. It was 34 this week and I was out riding. I, most definitely, felt more wind around my legs. I am going to get an F4 windshield on it soon, and that helps with the upper body, but the lower body sees more wind. Some will get winglets, I think that direct engine heat in. I picked up the bike a couple weeks ago.

Did you sell the ‘13, and if you don’t mind, how much did you get for it? I have that same year.

That's disappointing to hear.
Guess I'll go out and take one for a test ride anyway so I can compare.

I did. I had it up on Cycle Trader for a couple of weeks. It had just shy of 72,000 miles on it, and I sold it for $8,000. I was seeing a lot of 13s at about the $10k mark and they had a LOT less mileage on them (non riders. *LOL*), so I figured 8k was a good price point. The stealer was talking $5k on trade and then they would not honor the sale price on trade. So, sell it on your own, you'll get VASTLY more money!

We are probably getting a 2021 Wing from Honda of Russellville towards the end of April. Will most likely be selling our Custom F6B then. We have 5 shop bikes right now and I don't think Teresa wants 6 back there.

Rick has a great looking F6B.
Good luck with the sale, can’t wait to see your new Wing.

I got the red one. I added an F4 windshield, some highway pegs, fog lights and the 2020 passenger handles, vice staying with the original 2018 grips. They were horrible.

This is the 2021 DCT Tour that we had just picked up from Honda of Russellville.
Taken at Deals Gap about 3 weeks ago, bike with 50 miles on it. Bike has had Silver Leaf and quite a few accessories installed since then.

I just received the tags for Rick's old one yesterday. Love all what he did to it. Runs perfect!
