2015 Matte Silver in Florida

[Papa Tater]

Hello and I have been on the F6B site for awhile, been more on it for info and etc. Now that I have finally got my new 2015 Matte Silver F6B this past week, I will be looking forward to meeting some of you. So far I'm enjoying the bike, the little I've been able to ride this week. I come from riding Sport Bikes and a smaller V Twin Cruiser for years. This is a great site for the F6B and glad to be part of it.

Congrats! (But beware: You could spend more time with your F6B than with your wife... could bring up some trouble :icon_mrgreen:)

Stroguy - I'm just shy of a month behind you, I just traded my Impact Blue 2011 Stryker for the F6B- but my wife still has her Copper Red 2011 Stryker. I had seen you on the Stryker Forum (same name).

Great looking bike, welcome aboard. Lots of info to be had here.

Thank You Jim - looks like your in my neck of the woods.

Great looking bike and I hope to own one in the near future. Just waiting for the right time financially. Is that a Lincoln MKZ in the garage? How have you liked it? I took one for a test ride and was very impressed.

75tsiegel -Thanks. The MKZ is the wifes, and she loves it.

Congrats and welcome to the growing list of people who have picked the 2015 Matte Silver F6B! By my (very unscientific) view on this forum, it seems like the Matte Silver version is selling quite well. Hopefully the 2015s will be the "tipping point" to bring the F6B into more mainstream popularity (and perhaps a bit better resale value, once all those leftover 2013s and 2014s get cleared out).

Let the "Farkling" begin!

Ya Papa, live down in Bayside Lakes in Palm Bay. We ride up to Cocoa and Port Canaveral quite often, was up at Fish Lips yesterday, but not on the bike. We frequently bar hop the entire coast of Brevard County. Ride with several Harley riders and some metric cruisers. We are snow birds so we go back to Michigan normally in June, but this year mid May as we have a Grandson graduating this year. Will be back in Sept. We should try to meet somewhere one of these days if it ever stops raining, definitely into the summer weather. Met another guy on a blue f6b couple weeks ago in Sabastian at the Tiki Bar, he had just got his.

Jim - sounds good and have to meet up sometime.

[Papa Tater]

Getting to liking the bike even more! Not quite 2 weeks and already added fog lights, rear rack and had the front windshield wrapped Matte/Flat Black

I currently have a 2008 FJR1300AE and looking to get a 2015 F6B Deluxe. The guy at the dealership warned me about the fact that if you scuff the matte finish paint with your boot or something there is no getting rid of it without creating a bigger shiny spot. They had to buy a customer a new panel for some part of the bike already due to this issue. Any of you have this issue yet? in some of the other posts there is the discussions about the poor paint jobs and the paint rubbing off a bit. I am currently just gathering information but these are important issues to me. I hate it when I am forced to live with something that started out appearing to be good and it goes to shit. I cant trade in every year for a new paint job...

[Tundra]

OMG, wish I never saw the Matte Silver. Loved the bike since it came out, but that just finishes it off:icon_lol:

Welcome to the FAMILY, from Australia Tater. I have a black 2013 and love it to death. I must say though, I really like the look of the matte silver. Looks classy.:yes:
