    New Guy....

    Quick Intro... Names Herb I'm currently trying to sell my 2012 ZX14R and pickup a leftover F6B trying to find a yellow one if priced right but there's tons of 2013 Red ones...

    Anyhow thanks for having me and hope to join in more conversations soon!
    I'm in south jersey by the way.. Only seen one red here a couple weeks ago, my dad has a Full Goldwing (2012)....

    Welcome to the board, Herb . Wow, you're coming from a bike with brute force to one that is a bit more restrained. Actually, you can still go pretty fast with the "B" but with much more comfort. As you've probably seen, there are deals to be had on some new, old stock bikes so that's not a bad way to go. We'll look forward to hearing how this works out for you.

    The red ones are plentiful due to that being the slowest color followed by the blue , yellow , and matte grey. Black is by far the fastest.

    Hollink Motor Sports in Spencerport, NY (Rochester suburb) has a 2014 yellow F6B still in the box. You could probably buy it for around $15,000-15,500, plus tax, prep, freight, etc. This is where I bought mine a few weeks ago.

    Welcome Herb!

    I got off a Harley bagger so I feel like I'm on my way to the moon!

    Well that's my plan, kinda been there done that with the speed thing .. The B has about the same torque so that's a good thing... I need to slow down and see more and be comfortable.

    Lol, my wife's not a fan of the colors I chose but I will never own a black bike again, they just don't stay clean....

    A bit too far for me to fog but thanks, that air ride sounds like something I would be interested in..... Anybody have it here?
