    From Dealer to Home

    picked up my F6B tonight, maiden voyage was just under a hundred miles. Hit the rain about half way home. Sometimes it just feels liek that cloud follows me around till i get on the bike so it can rain. Maybe I will change my name to RAINMAN

    Congrats on the new F6 and welcome aboard. I picked up my bike a few weeks ago and same thing happened to me, I got caught in a torrential thunderstorm and both me and the bike were soaking wet by the time I pulled into the garage. The bike was properly baptized on its maiden voyage.
