    It's pretty standard fare for me. This is my 4th bike. I've owned a Suzuki Madura, Yamaha V-Max, Valkyrie, and now the F6B. I wouldn't describe any of them as "standard fare" - they've all drawn attention.

    Come to think of it - it's all been pretty positive attention too.

    Except for the group of Goldwings I passed on the Valkyrie when I was hooliganning it up on the way to test out the F6B. They didn't appreciate being passed at that speed.

    Well.. my old wing got lots of nostalga looks (GL1100), and I know this one is going to get more than my VFR1200 for sure!!

    I got total attention when I pulled into Corbin's service bay. There were 5 Harley guys and two staff in the bay, especially after I lifted the chin bar on my helmet and said hi .
    Please don't spook the road-sheep.

    I just finished a 10 day trip with 12 other bikes, 9 of them were Harleys. I bet I had a dozen people take pictures of my bike at gas stations and hotels, not one of them asked to take a picture of the HD's. I think it started to piss off the Harley owners, "$250,000 dollars worth of Harley Davidsons and they want a picture of the Honda", heard it several times.

    I like Harleys, but design hasn't changed that much in years... now the F6B we all know how unique it is and I cant wait to purchase mine...
