    Isn't that a nice thing to say to a guy who is obviously proud of his bike and wants to share with the group.

    Was thinking the same thing. Beautiful bike F6Bster and even better that you have made it yours with the extras you like. The backgrounds you are using are quite beautiful also. Hope to meet you in Cortez.

    Nothing negative was meant about F6Bster's "extras" on his bike as I have lot of "bucks" added to mine....Which I also enjoy, or wanted, and was willing to pay for. I have had mine for almost 4 1/2 years now and plan to keep it as I just turned 78 years old a couple months back ..Sorry if anyone took my comments as negative, as we all know adding extra "bling" does nothing to add dollar value to the bike....Owner satisfaction and riding enjoyment are paramount above re-sale value in most cases...Regards and ride safe

    I enjoy heating my house, adds comfort, and I probably won't get any of that money back in resale either.

    F6Bster, that's a lot of stuff! I am not sure I can remember all of the things I have added to mine. Let's try:

    -Angrystad windshield
    -Ram Mount
    -3-n-1 fog / turn signal / running lights
    -Corbin seat (currently ordered)
    -Baker Hand wings

    Oh, never mind, forgot all this stuff is in my signature!

    Wish List:

    -Remote saddlebag lock release
    -Some sort of highway peg, probably Mick-O-Pegs
    -Possibly a Corbin backrest, depending upon how the seat feels
    -Garmin GPS with satellite radio (if they ever come down in price, sheesh)
    -Some sort of cruise control option
    Former Ride:
    2013 F6B Standard, black; sold 7/2019
    Latest Addition:
    2016 Gold Wing Level 3, red; SCT transmission stuck in manual mode
    2019 Miles:
    7,900 as of 10/6

    I did not plan to add much. Wanted to add safety and comfort. It adds up quickly. My riding friends all have CB's, so I had to figure out a way to do that. Took a little trial and error, but it works really well. Being able to communicate on trips is great for safety, and for the additional rest stops that are necessary now that we're all older.
