I was riding Street Glides before coming back to Honda. I got a 2012 Goldwing because my friends had them and they are really nice bikes. When the F6B came out, I thought I saw some Road Glide in it and found a way to convert my Wing over to a F6B. Now that the Rushmore bikes are in, the Road Glide is out for now. Probably had to do with the new stereo/GPS display.

Thanks Gunut, interesting article. Won't change my mind but would happily test the Harley, just for the fun of it. :icon_biggrin:

Good Article.

Cliff Notes Version:

If you want a motorcycle that is superior in HP, Torque, Handling, Stopping, Turning, etc. buy and F6B.

If you want a motorcycle that is superior in Noise, vibration, and looking good to chicks and other HD owners, buy a Road Glide.

Harley reconsidered and brought the Road Glide back for 2014....http://cyrilhuzeblog.com/2014/02/05/harley-davidson-to-bring-back-the-road-glide/

I'm always interested in all bikes, and I'm looking forward to the introduction of the 2015 RG.

Doesn't mean I'll buy one, but I like watching things 'evolve' in the MC world.

"A V-rod motor in a Touring bike" has been sought after by more than a couple folks,,, :shrug:

Probably too radical for HD, but,,, a few years ago, 500 and 750cc fully water-cooled HD's weren't even being dreamed of,,,

And now: http://street.harley-davidson.com/en_US

Things that make you go 'Hmmm,,,,'

Now that 'Old Guard' Willy is out of the (real) picture, maybe HD can finally get down to 'some real bidness' with design evolution,,,,

I loved my RG and all that comes with owning a HD. But, as a fast comfy commuter, I'll take the F6B...

I read that a year ago and have the hard copy at home. It came out the month before I bought my F6B. The article made me feel even better about my decision. :icon_cool:

Nice to see the comparison article. We all knew what it had to say. Hands down we made the right choice.

I wonder why on page 5, they say the warranty is 12 months / 12,000 miles for the F6B. Interesting.

This was one of the articles that I read in doing my analysis to purchase the F6B...good information! 'popcorn and coke'

Me too, plus the article that had the F6B run 11.8 in the 1/4 mile. :icon_mrgreen:
