wjduke,
I deleted that post because it didn't say exactly how I felt.
You can stick up for him all you like.
You have an opinion, he has an opinion and I have a right to mine.
I just don't see anything positive about coming on a forum and always finding fault with the F6B.
Go to a Harley forum and start talking about how much better you like your F6B than a Harley and see what responses you get.

Ah, I must have been mid posting and didn't see them. Chip did compliment the 6, and then called it an Accord, which I don't understand. But, hey he gave an evaluation and I am sure the OP appreciates it. I went and looked at HD videos of the Rushmore and I like the entertainment system but the bike just seems compact. I don't ride for the entertainment system. I want wide open, performance and scenery.
Curious of OTD pricing on a Rushmore.

Why settle for one….Ride em all…..
Pain is the limiting factor in the pursuit of continued riding pleasure. The choice therefor is the bike that can be operated the longest time before the pain becomes a safety factor for all concerned.
Riding a Goldwing is like opening a can of testosterone.

I agree. I don't hang out on HD sites telling them how good the B is. On my 109 site if the guys that know me ask I try to keep my answer low key or send a pm. Personally I think its low rent and petty to come on here and sing the praises of another brand when you don't even own a B. Just my opinion but I entitled.
You must have not ridden yours like I ride mine. Whatever makes you happy is all that matters, but there seems to be more folks on this site that prefer an F6B over an HD.
The Harley looks OK, but with all the "stuff" on it, maybe you should compare it to a full Wing, not the "6". I ride the 6, because it "doesn't" have a recliner on the back. Just me, your choice.I traded my F6B after 1.5 years. I went back to HD. The new Rushmore bikes are fantastic. Love the paint, the accessories, the factory seat, the awesome radio, the adjustable shift lever, no key to fish for, cruise control, great factory sound and the 6th gear and my removable tour pak. The only thing the F6B was better was awesome acceleration. I found the F6B to be Honda Accord like. I knew it was not gonna give me any trouble, but no excitement for me. Demo everything you are interested in, and then buy something and go ride...
No, you are under standing me wrong, I will not buy another Harley, but I'm trying to find out what to buy. I've been there done that. Had Harleys since 95, time for something different, that looks good easy to ride and doesn't beat you to death.
I'll help you.
A good friend bought a '13 Ultra Classic HD, I don't know the exact model, but it had half the alphabet in it, and he really liked it initially.
Once the reality set in, he kept spending more and more to get the right sound, better performance, and the individual look.
After 1 year of ownership he told me he should have either bought what I ride, or a GL1800. This year we were in a Honda shop together and he fell in love with the 40th anniversary edition of the GL1800 in two tone black and red.
He definitely has buyer's remorse.
