why are they not selling many . .. . is it because they are so new just being out this year?? oris it the price and the economy ??

I think the biggest negative is that they have No cruise control. The f6b is the first bike I've owned since 2000 without it. I love the bike but throttle locks and all the devices other than Cruise Control Suck! I miss my Cruise control! I'm sorry I'm off subject a bit, But she asked. Dickie
I remember when Victory came out,,, Took quite a while to see one,,, Still not a huge number of 'em around here, and we have (5) dealers withing 60 miles.
Still haven't seen any (personally owned) Indians (by Polaris) Not interested in Indian (by Polaris) anywho, so NBD.
Have seen a dozen or so Rushmore bikes out and about,,,
And about 37,482 Street Glides!!!! LOL!!!!
While on a little jaunt with the wife we seen a red F6B in Damascus Oregon on HWY 212 about 2:30 pm. First one we have seen on the road.
Rode today In the Breast Cancer Poker Run In St.Augustine Fl. Spotted two other F6B's both Black. One actually had the keys hanging in the saddle bag lock. Didn't see anyone around it. This is a bit of a flaw. Its so dang easy to forget your keys in this lock. Didn't see the owner of either bike. Would have liked to talk to them. Any of you on Here? Dickie
Thanks for the welcome guys.
Basic story is after wanting a motorcycle for 10+ years I finally decided to take the plunge and get my endorsement in March of this year. With that I purchased a Suzuki C50T. I actually sat on the F6B the day I bought my C50 but the idea of a 1800cc, 840lb monster that cost $21k wasn't right for a guy just begining.
So over the last 6 months I rode 6700 miles on the C50 snd lusted after the F6B continuously. On Thursday I took the C50 in to have a coolant leak looked at (turned out to just be a loose clamp) and Motosport happened to still have 1 red F6B which was their demo, coincidentally the same bike I had sat on 6 months prior. I made the comment to Matt (finance guy) that I loved the bike and it was killing me to see it sit, he asked me what he had to make happen for me to be able to take it with me. I told him there was no way I could afford a $21k bike, especially since I was sure I was upside down on my Suzuki. He insisted I tell him what I could do, and I will be damned if he didn't make it happen.
