    My wife Kim.
    This is her bike.

    She has already had me add a KW dark tint w/s & an MP3 luggage rack. Still deciding on what seat but she has already determined the stock seat aint gettin' it. Highway pegs are going to be a must with her 34" inseam.
    Would like to try a Mustang seat but there isn't a version with a backrest which she definitely requires. She says the B feels lighter & more nimble than her '98 Valkyrie.
    '97 Valkyrie Tourer, SOLD!
    '98 Valkyrie Tourer, traded for wife's F6B
    '99 Valkyrie Tourer, traded in on MY NEW F6B!!!!
    '05 Shadow Spirit 750 traded for wife's F6B
    '05 Triumph Rocket 3, gone but not forgotten
    2013 F6B, black standard.
    2013 F6B, red Deluxe for the wife.

    Welcome Bunny!!! The first few upgrades I would recommend would be:
    a new windshield suitable for your height/taste
    Fork Brace (such as Superbrace)
    Belly pan
    Universal Go Cruise or Throttle lock (i.e. Kaoko)
    HID headlights
    Smoked front turn lenses
    Saddlebag bag liners (for traveling)
    Saddlebag carpet kit

    A seller named "themonogrammingqueen" on eBay makes F6B saddlebag mats for about half the price of Honda. I have a set... and I feel good about saving money every time I see them

    Bunny, the carpet liners create a finished look when you have your saddlebags open. Also, it resists things from sliding around or scratching in your saddlebags. I love my carpet liners...I got them as part of my $1K accessory bonus.

    As for the saddlebag liners. I've used these once so far on a 2,500 mile 7-day motorcycle trip. I was able to store all my clothes in one saddlebag liner and only occupy one saddlebag for my clothes. The other saddlebag was used for my tools/snacks/water/etc. The saddlebag liners help with space management as the saddlebags aren't very big when you're on a long road trip. I even had a travel bag that would sit on the passenger seat if I needed more space, but I didn't need it for this trip.
