How about a "Honda hasn't contacted me yet and the dealer won't confirm the issue on the F6B." option?
Notified by Honda, work completed to my satisfaction.
Notified by Honda, have not yet had the work performed.
Notified by Honda, work performed below my satisfaction.
Didn't wait for Honda, work performed by Honda dealer to my satisfaction.

Not overly concerned, work not performed until I hear from Honda, then will schedule the maintenance.

The parts guy at my dealership called and let me know my parts were in (he already knew mine was recalled) and could I bring it up to them for service......I took it to them on Tuesday (had some other stuff done as well) and picked it up on Saturday........couldn't be happier.Originally Posted by F6B1911
Got my recall done and some heated grips installed today.......now if it only quits snowing and warms up so I can take it out of it's long winter nap lol
Good job----now come on down to the Gulf Coast of TEXAS---we don`t know what snow is----
What difference dose it make if the bike has cruise control?
Just wondering where the connection is.

In an operable sense, braking disengages the cruise control. Not sure if the components being replaced (rear master and secondary master cylinders) are any different from a non-ABS model...

Not having any problems with my bike bled the brakes today with motul 5.1 and installed speed bleeders.Should I take it in for the recall?After reading some of the experiences on this board is it even necessary?Would you take it in?
I'm not sure I'd put money on that.
I had mine done, but the mechanic said, the only one's he believes ever have an issue are bikes that spend a lot of time decorating someone's garage instead of being ridden.
"Go sell crazy somewhere else, we're all stocked up"
WHere did I tell anyone to ignore it????
I specifically said I had the recall done. I just relayed the message that the mechanic said the only one's he has seen to have any issues are bikes that spend time sitting. He has done a LOT of recalls.

I heard the same thing as Jimmy. The service manager at a dealership I trust told me most of the affected Wings were in climates where bikes were stored for the winter, like parts of the mid-west. I ride mine every month of the year. I plan to get the work done in the next few months. But I'm not alarmed and will ride until then.

I also look at the bigger picture. This defect existed when the GL1800 was introduced over 15 years ago, but it took years before the problems began to surface. There have been something like 145,000 GL1800s built, while only about 500 have had the dragging brake problem. That's 1/3 of one percent. Yes, I want the recall done, but I'll keep this in perspective.
