i like the f6b.
many years ago i tried to buy a goldwing but i wanted the top case and the bags removed but got nowhere .
but now ,the f6b answers part of my needs

does anyone here knows someone who can do this surgery for me .

i know that there is now a valkyrie ,but i need the fairing because i do most of my riding here in connecticut/vermont /new york in spring ,fall and part of winter .

the valkyrie now has 2 windshields but not enought wind protection.

can anyone help ??

So it sounds like you want a GL1800 stripped down with only a fairing or windshield? Wouldn't that be an older Valkyrie? :shrug:

A lot of custom work would be involved to achieve what you want with an F6.

Interesting question. It is said that the new Valk shares the same frame and etc as the Wing and the B. If this is so, then one can put the bag less Valk rear fender and saddle on the B type. A"Super Valk" reborn?

We trudge on (intrigued).

If you have a 2012 GW or newer the trunk can be removed and your bike converted to a F6B. It would be impractical to remove the saddlebags as there isn't any way to hold all of the electronics that are back there. If you just want to remove the trunk (2012 or newer). Call Jesse at Schroader's Honda in Hendersonville NC.
