Greetings from central North Dakota

I just traded in my 2006 Honda VTX 1300C for a 2013 red deluxe. It was hard to see it go. It hauled me to Alaska in 2013 and got me home again. Great first bike for me. I've been reading about the F6b for 2 years now and had to have one. The ride home from dealer was 110 miles and I must say you are all correct. I ordered the Madstad that night. The power is so much more than I expected. That is a good thing. The riding position is something I will need to get used to. My arse was a little sore on the way home. I'm hoping the stock seat breaks in. I had a mustang on my VTX and loved it. Anyway thanks for all the info from you guys I've been lurking for a yearAttachment 13467

Congrats.

Ever get up to Winnipeg?

No i haven't been up to Winnipeg. I alway get a calling for the mountains in the summers so I usually head west.

'welcome gang' to the board!!!

Congratulations on your new bike. And yes the stock seat does get better with a few thousand miles on them.

.welcome20. and congratulations :cheers: I'll be in Spearfish, SD in June. Not too far.

Welcome and congratulations.

Congratulations and welcome aboard!
If you've been lurking, you know how all this works as well as the Search function.

Glad that someone's riding map will have North Dakota colored in....
Cheers!

Welcome. Nice to have another northerner join.

.welcome20., Sierra, from NC :039:. Regarding your seat comments...in my case, I found the stock seat breaking down rather than breaking in and replaced it with the Ultimate Mid Rider. Particularly if you want the seat to move you slightly forward, that seat is a great choice.

Welcome aboard! Amazing bike eh... I can't get enough :icon_biggrin:

From another newbie...how long is a newbie a newbe???? I'm over here to the right , in Minnesota, close to Twin Cities. I'm making changes, it seems every other day, so feel free to stop by anytime, just check to make sure I'm not on the road. I like the bike so much, I wake up daily think of where I can ride...then I see the grass will need mowing. Got to get rid of that lawn or let it grow. Welcome, I've found many helpful and good people here.
watso

Good luck with the bike. I was stationed there in the mid 70's....have they reduced the bug population yet? I couldn't imagine cleaning them off a motorcycle like I saw on my car back then!

I heard the bugs aren't too bad Nov. through March.:lolup:

More like Oct through April shooter! :icon_biggrin:

Lol. No bugs yet. I'm sure it will be soon. I need to get some liquid glass on before the bugs come out.

'welcome gang'

Welcome from north of the border.:clap2:
