Variable valve timing would seem to be a cool feature to add.
+1 What he said.

I don't need no stinkin 6 speed.

I got a 900lb bike, than get 40mpg on reg gas, at I-State speeds can pass at will without downshifting and the motor will last at least 200k miles.
This thing works just fine w/ 1800cc & 5 spd. Would like to see ABS but not much else.

I also see F6B remaining the same for a while, even if a new Wing comes to bat. I just hope the F6B stays around a while. I know mine will !!

Everybody was all jazzed about a "New Goldwing", when Honda moved Wing production from Ohio back to Japan at the end of 2010. All we got was a facelift.
