    Why Do I Love The F6B...

    Is it the superb (SUPERB) balance that makes the bike instantly flickable?

    The unique styling that makes it unlike anything else on the road?

    Is it the power and torque that make it feel much lighter?

    Is it the 45 degree lean angle?

    Or the incredible suspension that allows remarkably (REMARKABLY) smooth transitions between extreme left and right leans?

    Maybe its the supreme confidence that the bike imparts to the rider in ANY type of maneuver?

    Is it the ability to comfortably ride coast to coast on a whim, yet still perform daily commuting duties?

    The fact that it's capable of + 1 million miles with just ordinary maintenance?

    The tried and true mechanical lineage which ensures all the gremlins have been worked out?

    NAWWWW... what I'm enjoying most is how intuitive this bike is to ride, and how willing it is to do anything you ask it to; this makes me look like a much better rider than I actually am. I always love things that make me look good

    Exactly. I still catch guys in the parking lot standing around my bike examining it... but not the K1200, Roadglide, or VStar that my co-workers ride.

    I was thinking of getting a 2015, but I have mine exactly the way I want it...don't care enough about cruise at this point.... People at lights, on other bikes keep pointing at something and telling the person on their bike of the bike next to them... A huge compliment !!!

    I have mentioned that same thing to many people in explaining why I love the 6, and it is true, it makes me a better rider.
