Need a little info

[F6Dave]

Thanks Bob,

It's not to hard to find one off a Wing, it's just hard to find a black one off a 6. I may have to resort to painting one. I'm still looking.

I got lucky. When I was looking for a spare wheel, Doyne had just triked one of those anniversary edition Wings with the black wheels. It even included a new OEM Bridgestone.

Are you saying that your bike is at a Honda Dealer, and they can't source a part? Or is your bike at an independent dealer and they can't source a Honda part?

I have in my inventory of spare parts a NEW "0" mile BLACK F6B final drive.

Has the rear brake rotor but NO rear brake caliper.

I can ship it out late this week or early next week to your dealership.

$150 plus $50 shipping.

That is what I paid for it. You can have it for what I have into it.

Check your PM for my phone number.

I will take it, per our phone conversation I will send you the shipping address (PM) and make payment whenever you are ready.

Thank You, I have had it with Honda and Insurance, you saved the day.

Reading this thread is quite heartening! Look at the people who jumped in and offered help and then Phantom was able to give exactly what was needed. Very cool.

And another reason why this forum is such a great site.

I also find this site very helpful and full of good guys....But, what the hell is wrong with Honda parts that they cannot supply a final drive for a very popular and long time model to a dealer and customer in need???...Sounds like someone is "screwing the pooch" along the line somewhere....JMHO...Good luck and hope it all works out for you soon..Without knowing all the facts, this kind of thing would really upset me, as I am sure it has you, and very possibly end my relationship with Mother Honda!!!

So what are you going to do? Go back to Victory?

It's not that they don't have one it's that they can't even give a projected date. I spent a couple of hours with Honda customer service by phone today with out any success. I can tell most of the reps I spoke with either don't ride or have multiple bikes because they don't get the urgency. They were talking about 6-8 weeks more and seemed to feel that was OK.

I have had to wait 8 weeks for a part from Honda......but they had to make it !!! Honda can be slow. I have been waiting about 10 days for a rotor at this point. Just goes to show that a few folks have spare parts and are willing share!
