I Took the Plunge

[meanstreak]

Hi everyone. First time poster here. After a lot of hesitation and a ton of research I finally bit the bullet and traded this...



For this...



I've been riding for 26 years, I've owned cruisers and sport bikes, and I always seem to bounce back and forth between the two styles trying to find the perfect balance of comfort and performance. I have never tried a touring bike until now, mostly because I've been intimidated by the size. When I spied the F6B I knew it was the bike for me. I knew it would be comfortable, I've never heard of an uncomfortable Goldwing, but I was blown away by the handling and power! I am very happy with my decision and look forward to an awesome riding season!

Good move! I traded in my FJR1300 for the F6B…..4 weeks later I put my beloved Electra Glide on Craigslist and watched it ride away…
No regrets! I have been riding Harleys since 1984 but I think it was time to turn the page….
Seems like every schmuck is on a Harley these days so the cool factor kinda died…..
Have yet to see another F6B on the road yet and that makes me smile….
Enjoy your new ride and donate all your village people clothes….You won't need em.

I'll add to that... I just came back from a 350 mile weekend in two trips, and have to say that every time I swing a leg over this ride, I can't wipe the smile off my face. Today's ride went from 1000 to 6000 feet and down and then BACK UP and DOWN again.

Welcome to the best riding group (the guys and gals here) and the best ride in the world.

Welcome to the HD rebellion! The only thing I miss about my HD is riding with my HOG friends, so I still do it anyway.
