Thanks for the info.
I am interested because I was able to put a Goldwing driver's backrest on my F6 for a recent trip. Because the hand rails are different, it required some longer bolts, spacers and a little gerry-rigging, but the holes lined up perfectly.
Some time, maybe I'll get a chance to try one for myself and give my feedback.
Thanks again.

A GW seat will not fit on F6B. Without even looking under the seat to see what needs to be changed, the first problem would be that the rear deck cover would have to be removed and replaced with ???.

The seat, or should I say seating position, is one of the reasons I chose a F6B.The cheaper price, the styling also played a role, but the regular trunked version of the GoldWing has me sitting in a more bunched up to the tank feeling. I'm perfectly happy with the Corbin seat I put on.

The riding position on my 2012 GL1800 with the MBL kit was the main reason I traded it. The F6B is much better.

The f6b seat is about 3 inches wider than the gw one the bikes have the same frame but the seat pans are different and have different spacers so they work with the handles properly
I asked my Honda Sales manager about this a cpl months back, he said because the way the seat tapers and the side bag release handles wouldnt line up and work.
Hadnt done the side by side, just taking his word since he has upgraded a cpl of seats on the floor model F6B's
