    I won't give up my F6B, even if I decide to try another ride. Just add another to the stable. This F6B is just too good totrade off. Especially after I got it accessorized to my liking. One reason I got the F6, was the lack of all the electronic bullcrap on new bikes. I prefer function over glitter.

    Agree with the above. Have too much money in my F6B as well. I'm kinda tired of fixing up and improving a bike, only to let it go and begin the same on another.

    I like simplicity too. My car is loaded with electronics. I tried most of them when it was new, but found many to be a distraction. About all I use now is the radio, GPS, and hands free phone connection.

    The ultra-simplicity of my 2 oldest motorcycles has a real appeal. My '98 Valkyrie has no radio, and not even a fuel gauge. My '88 BMW doesn't even have a tach, just those little shift points marked on the speedo. I never miss any of that when riding those old bikes. I just focus on the ride.
