    A little droolin'

    It was such a nice day here today so, making my touring rounds on the 6 today, I stopped by our local HD dealership. Even as I was parking the bike, I started to get a crowd around me. After answering some questions about my bike, I sat outside on a bench drinking a Pepsi and just watched. Many guys crowded around my black beauty and kept going around it. More came over to where I was sitting with even more questions. One had the nerve to tell me that was too much bike for a woman. ( I may be a 61 year old woman, but I still rock! ) I don't think HD is going to like the F6B because a lot of die-hard HD guys are liking this bike a lot!

    I just love this bike and can't wait to see what comes as it gets more popular.

    2010 HD Roadglide 85,000+ miles on th OD, broke down 6 times 3 locally, 1X Utah, 1X NY, 1X SD, had 15 work orders on and it was a replacement motorcycle for a lemon lawed 09 HD Classic Electra Glide with 25,000+ less than a year old at the time. I have owned 9 H-D and all but 2 were POS and those two I owned less than a year. I have also owned 3 Hondas, 2 Kaws, 1 Buell (POS too), 1 Yam, 2 Zukis, 1 Polaris. Never had a problem with any of them except a tech prep era on one of the zuki. I will prob never buy another HD again. Now having said that I still own a 1984 HD Softail that I will never sell and will allways be fixing and tinkering with.

    YES, multiple times, plus oil coming out the air filter, tranny leaks, and nut backing off the compensator in the primary muliple times, and radio issues.
