Hello, all!

I just traded in my 2010 Street Glide for a 2014 F6B Deluxe Sunday.

Although I loved my Harley with the stage 3 engine (107 w/ heads: 110HP/120TQ), this F6B is just simply an amazing motorcycle!

I used to live up in Norther AZ (Lots of great riding places and very nice summer for riding) but I recently moved to Phoenix. The heat from the hot running Harely's engine made me wanna NOT RIDE!

I've been looking at F6B since its introduction over a year ago and I finally couldn't resisit anymore. lol

I am so happy with the bike: it moves! as fast as the heavly hopped up Harley WITHOUT burnt thigh! not to mention it's so smooth. The factory audio system sound better than the upgraded Harely sound system.

I miss the cruise control, but not a big deal. All the other pros outweigh not having a cruise control. :)

Handling of this bike is so much better than the steet glide. The difference is so huge its ridiculious!

Maybe because of the lower center of the gravity of F6B, it feels much lighter than the Harely.


The only bad thing about this bike is that it gets me so excited to have one that I cannot sleep at night! lol

I am sooooooooooo glad that i traded in my bike for the new F6B. IT ROCKS!

Congrats on the new ride. As for Cruise I am quite sure you could have it added for less than what that stage 3 treatment cost ya. :shrug:

Welcome! I'm not sure if I'm new or pre-new. I just put a deposit down and will take delivery on Monday or Tuesday. Just waiting on liquidated funds to arrive to pay it off.

Congrats on the new F6! You made a wise move. As you said, the handling is in a completely different league and it's nice not to have your nuts roasted every time you ride in the heat. Plus, you don't have to spend thousands upgrading the motor.

Welcome from a recent "sixer" myself!
Even though I learned the Harley lesson the easy way by watching friends spend so much $$ & taking test rides on their Harleys :shock: I still appreciate all the F6B brings to the table. Coming from over 100,000 miles of Valkyrie riding with 15,000 miles of Triumph Rocket 3 under my belt the F6B still surprises me with all it's refinements.
An additional bonus for you is now you can sell all your HD duds & you don't have to dress up like a pirate to ride your "6"! :icon_twisted::icon_lol::icon_twisted:

Enjoy. :icon_wink:

Welcome from Southern California. A bit cooler, but not so much. Can't stay off mine, and just ordered a new set of tires from WingStuff.

I love it that another HD rider is converted!:yes::yes::yes:
