Converting a Full Wing to a F6B

[Madmax]

Hey guys been selling a lot of bikes off . I love my F6B but may have a chance to trade off a really nice Vmax , I actually have it listed in the classifides on here .
I was thinking of trading on a left over full wing and striping the luggage off the back , I did see a pic some where on the net of a guy who did a black one looked clean .
Any one ever convert one to a bagger ?

Nice. I guess the F6B seat does fit the GW.

I converted my 2012 Wing to an F6B using Honda parts. It isn't cheap and can only be done with 2012 and new Wings. I had my done by Schroader's Honda in Hendersonville NC. There is another company making a cover that goes in place of the trunk, but I didn't like the looks.

Do you really have the seating position of an F6B? I thought the rear subframe was different on the F. Allowing a lower position for the seat no?:shrug:

Nice looking bikes , I have a 2013 F6b , I would have to do the numbers but swap the back half of both bikes and just sell the F6B with the wing stuff on the back could be a option for me .
Have a Honda dealer that also has yamaha and is willing to give me a good trade number just have to figure which model .

I've had both and I feel like there is maybe an inch or so more room to slide back on the stock F6B seat as opposed to the wing or the wing converted to F6B.

Schroader's does replace the rear subframe of the Wing with an F6B one. I got a heated Corbin F6B seat instead of buying a Honda F6B OEM seat. I think this is way too expensive to buy a new Wing and convert it as it just doesn't make sense. However, there are plenty of bargains to be found on used 2012-13 Wings. I would guess you could convert a used Wing for the price of a new F6B deluxe. I couldn't ride my converted F6B without all the Wing accessories that make touring comfortable. Cruise, reverse, air suspension, TPMS, heated grips/seat are not extras for me, but essential.

Following Honda's never ending improvements , I believe those missing accessories ( which could match full GW functionalities ) , will be installed in incoming years . Despite slow sale , F6B still has better rating and demand then new Valkyrie , so they will try to satisfy market and keep everybody happy .

I actually started a thread about the Valkyrie , I was out shopping , still trying to figure out the direction I want to go with high dollar trade .
All the honda dealers I hit 2 weeks ago were all sitting on 2014 valkyries .
I really like the new blue on the 2015 F6b ... I can dump the 13 vmax I'm sitting on , its worth 13k trade right now only because it has 137 miles , extended warranty and 240 rear wheel .
I would have 13k to put down on full wing or blue F6b .
I still have a 2013 F6b and that would be the one I strip and put the wing stuff on and dump that bike should still fetch 12k ... After all trades I did to get my 13 f6b I only have 9 grand in that bike .
Now I have two 2nd gen Vmax bikes so going to trade one or both but most dealers dont want to take 2 bikes .

The rear of this yellow wing looks exactly the same as my 2001 yellow wing. Will the conversion kit to remove the trunk not work with the 2001 wing?

[yellow rex]

It will work 01-2010 wing.
