    Hi,

    My name is Joe, and I would like to introduce myself being I'm a new member here and just give a little background about how I came to own an F6B. I'm an H-D owner for the past 20yrs and I currently own a ('07 Softail Springer Classic) as well a ('13 Touring Road King Classic).

    Last July I decided I wanted to own something different which is when I purchased the '13 RKC and immediately ripped it apart to suit my tastes. Rewind 3yrs ago when I went with a friend so he could buy a CBR500. While we were at Honda I fell in love with the F6B but NEVER had any intentions of purchasing another bike being I had my '07 Softail.

    1 month ago, again, I go to the Honda dealer with a different friend and I see the F6B again and after sitting on it I tell my friend "get me the hell out of here right now!!!"
    1 week later I went back and purchased a (leftover) 2016 F6B Deluxe in Matte Gray. I've only got to ride the bike a couple of miles due to waiting for the DMV documents (which I just received) because I purchased the bike out of state.

    I now have my '13 RKC up for sale and have 2 bikes that are 180° of each other '07 Softail/'16F6B which is what I wanted in the first place…something totally different! I had totally forgotten about the F6B because I never go to the Honda dealer being I'm a Harley owner, but I can now say I'm a proud owner of the F6B and can't wait to learn about the bike being I do ALL my work myself and hit the open road and enjoy it!

    Ride Safe,
    Joe

    Congratulations.

    Definitely order yourself a Shop Manual for the bike with doing your own wrenching.

    Many thanks to all of you for being civil and respectful of each other and keeping the site a nice place to visit.

    CONGRATULATIONS to all of you. Time to go for a celebratory ride.

    Yes, we've had to throw out some trash 6-8 times over the years, but that is expected on any forum.

    Still working on bringing the smilies back and getting the pictures to come back, this last update which required a complete shift to another server has had a few kinks. We have another call into the software provider, hopefully they can help us resolve these issues this week, I'm just as frustrated as all of you. Again, patience.
    Tony, I've made friends I will have for the rest of my life because Georgia only played ten songs off the flash drive of hundreds. I think I googled "What the f*** is wrong with my honda f6b audio flashdrive" and BAM! here I am.

    I've ridden with people I met through this forum from Florida, New Orleans, Kentucky, Canada, Massachusetts, RI, NY, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey..

    I've met some other ladies riding F6Bs here and I gotta tell you ,that's pretty cool.

    The experiences are too numerous to list. But watching Bob Penn feed the deer, chipmunks, squirrels, birds (pissed because the turkeys were late) has to rank near the top.

    I'm looking forward to riding with so many more of you. Thanks Tony

    (I think you should consider leaving the smilies off!)

    Thank you very much. First thing I do is buy the Shop Manual (waiting for it) for any bike I purchase. I'm a firm believer that everyone should have a Shop Manual even if they don't do their own work so they can learn about their bike.

    Thanks again,
    Joe

    Apologies if I'm posting this on the wrong thread.
    I just went for my first 40+mi short ride and I'm very impressed to say the least!
