I can't say often enough how much I enjoy the F6B. Every day I ride brings a smile to my face. I don't get 'out' often enough, but I commute almost every day.

The new (actually used-used) Cobra 6-2-6 exhaust resonate perfectly for me. I can change six plugs easier than the two on my previous ride. Changing the oil, one drain and one fill, is a dream. Every time I touch the starter, no strain on the starter or battery, just an almost immediate spark to life.

I've never been one that chose to push limits and dive into a corner, but now I take different routes home that give me an opportunity to enjoy this capable bike.

Tomorrow morning will tell if the new iridium plugs will address the cold hesitation problem. Even with the hesitation, still by far the most enjoyable bike I've owned in 40 plus years riding.

Thanks F6B.

I agree . . Just got back from a 45 minute ride what I call the "5 bridges" run, taking in the city lights at night here in Charleston. Don't like to ride at night on some of the back roads, but I-526 beltway around the city is a nice short ride, and at night not much traffic. Put more miles on this bike in nine months that I put on my last two Harley's in three years.

I just did my first real ride. About a hundred miles. Some country roads, a few twistys and a bit of highway. Wow. So happy I bought this bike.

Got the chance to ride to a meeting today rather than the truck full of equipment. Was following the gps & ended up at a dead end street with a mile to go. I smiled to myself when I realized I'd be riding a little longer. :lolup:
