    New F6B owner in central NY

    Hi all, I just picked up this new 2015 on Friday and so far it’s pretty great. While the dealer was Showing me it’s features prior to me riding off, he actually dropped it! Best part is he was mid sentence telling me how easy they are to move haha. It didn’t go down hard and left no damage so he’s sending me a check so I can get some gear. He also threw in a nice Corbin heated seat but it doesn’t fit me well so I’m going to sell or trade it. I’ll put a listing in classifieds. Looking forward to learning about these bikes and making it my own.

    I would upload a pic but I keep getting an error message, can you not upload from an iPhone?

    WELCOME!! Great bunch of members, they'll help you in any way they can!! You're going to love your B!!!
    Heli Bars & Russell Day Long seat is the best money you can spent on your B.
    Get the OEM seat from the dealer, previous owner or buy a used one... Have Russell Day Long make a custom seat (using the OEM seat pan) just for you, your butt & body... You butt will be smiling & it will thank you. Hours of relaxed pain free riding.… Sell the Corbin seat on our "for sale section". Don't think about using the Corbin seat pan. RDL will not warranty them. Corbin makes a very thick seat pan & you end up sitting too high. Any questions about Heli bars or RDL, PM me.

    Hey, welcome aboard from near my neck of the woods. I bought mine about three years ago to the day, and it is about to roll over to 25,000 miles! Proof that this bike allows a seven month riding season, even up here.

    I may see you around as I work halfway between Rochester and Syracuse, as well as often riding the county routes of Oswego and neighboring counties back and forth from my camp near Redfield.
    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

    My old stomping grounds. I grew up in Mexico NY and spent a lot of time riding Central NY back roads on my CB 750F. Love the area hated the winter. I usually ride up in the summer so I may run into you all some time also.

    Hey Valk, I often go right through Mexico on my way up ... my camp is 15 more miles down 104 East and up Co Rt 22. Gas at the Fastrac and groceries at Tops in town are common stops on the way through.

    Congratulations, you have your hands on the only bike you'll ever need. Whether you have the fastest color, black, doesn't matter it is a great bike to ride. Lots of information on this board and very helpful folks, even the bleeding heart liberals.

    You might as well say "Susquehana Hat Company" or tell Mike Tyson he talks funny.
