Da-yum HOT in PHX!!

[Ixol Phaane]

...Especially now that this "Write-me-a-ticket Yellow" F6B is on the street! :icon_biggrin:

I just want to say hello to everyone here in the F6B Riders Forum. I've been lurking and following things here for several months... at least since I saw that Honda was bringing this newest (and FASTEST) color to the F6B! I've been keeping quiet... but everyone here seems like decent people, with lots of camaraderie and helpful info.

I'm coming from a line of Hondas that stretches over 37 years and includes a 2000 Anniversary Edition Aspencade. The latest is a 2003 VTX 1300 that I bought new here in Phoenix.

I first spotted the Wing-B last summer and knew immediately that this would be my next bike. I looked at the Black and the Red models last year, both beautiful bikes, but couldn't pull the trigger until I saw what Honda would do for 2014. I just picked this one up yesterday, and all I can say is WOW! It hands down tops the GL1500 I had. It's really nice to be back on a big bike again.

I look forward to seeing some of you out and about here in the Valley... Westernbiker, bobbyf6b, bill phoenix. Bike night at Westgate is always pretty cool.

I'll be keeping an eye out for all the black and red F6Bs out there, so if you see this one, honk... and I'll slow down and let you catch up. :crackup:

i didn't know they made 2 wheel yellow wings, i thought yellow was reserved for trikes

(just a friendly tease) :icon_wink:

[TwinCitiesRider]

I could say it's modeled after the bumble bee look of the Valkyrie Tourer, but no way. That one is pure Yellow Jacket. Congrats on the purchase.

Converting it to a trike may be in the picture sometime way, WAY down the road. I must subconsciously have been planning ahead. :icon_wink:

Thank you. I have to agree with the bumble bee look... but my lady and her friend think more along the line of a certain Autobot. :icon_biggrin:

Scotrod, I like that purple (?). It looks very similar to the Illusion Blue of my VTX.

Yeppers! It was painted 'Blurple' by Honda of Russellville. :yes:

Sometimes it's blue, sometimes its 'purple'! LOL!

That's a nice look Valk. Great graphics.

Thanks, BuzzzPhotos. I sympathize with ya. But, hey... it's only money!

You ought to be proud, those are PERFORMANCE Awards not tickets :biggthumpup:

You were awarded for out performing everyone else around you :winnergold1:

[JBnAZ]

Helps me see you in the side mirrors of my black model as I dust ya! :yikes:

Do ya wanna race or are ya ..... Yellow?

Is all this driving you bananas?

Congrats on your new ride - it matches my toy hauler. 75 degrees tomorrow in the valley, most likely our last day below 87 for the next 5 months.....

Oh boy here we go, I'd bet the RED 6 is the fastest. Doubt me??? I'll race you guys over Mingus mountain any time:poke:


Just goofing around, hope you enjoy your new bike. I love mine more and more as I rack up more and more miles.

I've spent the past couple days riding, and I am absolutely IMPRESSED with this bike. It makes my VTX1300 seem like a wind-up toy. (But I'm still gonna the VTX around... for now.)

Funny you should mention Mingus Mountain. I was planning a ride from Phx to Sedona via Wickenberg, Prescott and Jerome. I think that would be outstanding! Maybe we can get a small handful of AZ F6Bs together for that run sometime? I'm in. :yes:

Aw... c'mon JBnAZ... I'm sure you look great on that black Wing-B... but the green color of envy really doesn't suit you. :icon_mrgreen:

This morning weather was beautiful. Took a quick tour out past Lake Pleasant to Wickenberg for breakfast, then back. What a pleasure! Am really not looking forward to the return of triple digits. BUT... I can use that as an excuse to ride outta town. :icon_biggrin:

[JBnAZ]

Busted again - I'm happy to have you out front running at a good clip - someone needs to be the human radar detector!

Enjoy
