Keep My F6B or Trade It in for a 2024 Goldwing Bagger?

[indadman]

My F6B has 57,000 miles on it and has had all required maintenance done at Al Lamb Honda here in Dallas. The bike is equipped with LED lights, a Mustang seat, Progressive front forks, TorqueLoopz exhaust manifold, and Brothers exhaust pipes. I am thinking about going in one of two directions...buying a new 2024 (I hate the color schemes on the 2025s!) or spending $2+ on Traxxion front forks and rear shock.

Some of you who have faced this question and surely have some opinions, and I am open to all ideas.

Thanks in advance.

If you have the money, get the new one. I'm considering an upgrade as well. I'd just like some of the modern carplay etc.

I have a 2015 F6B deluxe. It's an awesome motorcycle. Iv'e traveled through many states with it. I recently bought a 2024 Bagger. The new wing feels lighter and performance is much improved. Suspension is great and I like the 6th gear and navigation. Reverse is pretty cool too. I keep one motorcycle in Arizona for the winter months and the other in Washington. I personally would go with the new wing.

I decided to keep my 2013 F6B (60K miles) when I got my 2023 Goldwing Tour DCT two years ago. I don't regret my decision one bit.

If you decide to go with Traxxion suspension, which I would keep the F6( just my opinion, I don't need all the carplay and stuff, heck don't even have it in my cars MORE ELECTRONICS just means more problems down the road ) Go with their Full Monty( replace the progressive front end stuff with theirs, made mine a whole new and different bike ). It is well worth the cost in my opinion and just food for thought here.

I did Traxxion with triple tree and fork brace WOW as Honda should have still have not done rear spring yet...
I also added a bluetooth carplay / android auto all for much less than a new bike that probably could use upgraded suspension.
Also going to be adding Henrys final drive which would make up for zero 6th gear

I struggled with the same decision for a while. I’ve been “building” my 2013 since new and now have it exactly the way I want it. My draw to new was DCT and the ride/suspension. I opted to keep my F6B and get the Traxxion upgrade about a month ago. The ride is absolutely amazing and I am now glad I went this route. DCT would have been nice but I just didn’t want to start over buying seats, windshields, etc, etc, etc

Keeping my 2015 Deluxe until it dies. 102k on it now. Feels like it is just broke in.
did a 1200 mile weekend ride last weekend. Like F6Pilot, I also have my 6 set up just the way I like it and don't want to start over. Yes, the new Wing has some nice upgrades, so it's your choice.

When I purchased my 2015 F6B in mid 2021 it had under 7500 miles on it, now it's just under 90000 miles. When I first purchased it I went and checked out the 2018+ bagger, I went with the 6B because at the time it had better after market support, and being as short as I am (5'5" with a 30" inseam) I couldn't sit a newer bagger with both feet touching the ground. Since then I've found some nice lifters to put in my boots so I can flat foot the 6B, along with a custom seat, and the adjustable bars....I don't see the point of buying a new bike and setting her up the way I like, I've put thousands of dollars into my 6B (torque loops, exhaust, seat, bars, lighting, speakers...). And at just under 90,000 miles she's just getting broken in.
