    What's your short answer to "what kind of motorcycle do you have?"

    Almost NO one knows F6B, "Honda" sounds imprecise and generic, I usually say "a stripped down Goldwing" but that is kinda odd sounding...sometimes I say a big cruiser that isn't a Harley" but what's my point in saying that- it sounds spiteful...anyway what are some more civil, yet descriptive answers??

    "I only had 1/2 down payment so I only got 1/2 a Gold Wing."

    Riding a Goldwing is like opening a can of testosterone.

    Stripped down fast Gold Wing is the most descriptive and the one I tend to use more often.

    I usually say it's a "Honda flat Six Bagger" and if pressed for more then "based on the Goldwing platform" and if they want more info I just smile and say "visit your Honda dealer".

    I had a Harley guy this weekend ask if we could trade bikes for a few miles. I told him-

    "No, you won't want to give it back!"
