    Buying new long distance is one thing.... buying used is something you never really know to you get there.

    Bought a BMW K1300S in Detroit used with 2K miles and road it back to New Orleans in 2 days while the ink was still wet on the paper work.
    Never regretted that decision or the ride.
    Moved up the F6 and still have that smile on my face.

    Went to Schroaders Honda in NC not so much for the deal as for the model (2014 Goldwing Navi XM ABS converted to F6B) and rode it home October 8 2016 during Hurricane Matthew.

    Also got to test the ABS on the way home. Damn Cagers!

    Not very far compared to others. I only went 200 miles to make a deal.

    In March of this year I drove 600 miles to pick up an 81 CB750 for my son. I fortunatly was able to have a fellow member check out the bike prior to that little adventure (thanks again Steven). Used the sellers table lift, pushed the bike right into the bed of my truck, and headed back home.

    What VTX did you get? I own a VTX 1800F 2005 that I decided to sale after I bought my F6B (but I'm not making a big effort jeje)
