What bikes did you consider buying before settling on the F6B?

I didn't settle either. I picked the F6B over these.

2015 HD Road Glide Special
2015 Ducati Diavel

other possible bikes

I had just turned 52K on my 2007 VTX 1300 in July....retired and looking for something like a longer range bagger.....and got wind of the July Honda promo for $ 1,000 in free accessories.....

Had already narrowed the field down to bikes with:yes: 1) liquid cooled engine, :yes:2) fuel injection and:yes: either shaft or belt drive.....and most important, a seat height under 29 inches.:icon_biggrin:..as I am "inseam challenged" with a 29" inseam.....:yikes:

Needless to say, with that criteria, the choices were few....:shrug:

I won't own another Harley until they make one that is totally liquid cooled, but Harleys have always been a good fit for short legs..The VTX 1300 was perfect fit, but they stopped production in 2010 and the new VT1300 line had too much front end rake for me...:no:..The Star 1300 Deluxe was first one I rode...not a bad scooter, but still a 1300, like I had....:shrug:

Then I was fortunate to get a chance to ride a F6B 2013 demo in July 2014....holy moley...:clap2:

Kept the VTX 1300 and bought the left over 2013 F6B standard "fast" black and put on the tall w/s, the center stand, the passenger backrest and mount and Honda F6B full cover....now I'm a happy camper....:icon_biggrin:
