I must be some kind of weirdo or something but...

[Primo]

... after a couple of Harleys and thousands of $$$ dropped into them post-purchase, I love my 6 pretty much as is.

No need or desire for more speed, better sound, louder pipes, etc.,etc.,etc.

Bought a new Klockwerks windshield, Ergo III's and Mustang seat and I'm done.

Needed a little extra reach to the ground. Bought some boots with thicker soles.

I see a lot of you folks tweaking this and lowering that. Spending big bucks for Heli-bars etc.

Your money, your needs, your desires.

Not condemning anyone. Just wanted to go on record saying this bike to me was pretty close to perfect right out of the box.

Definitely more so than any bike I've ever bought or ridden.

Off my soapobox.

Ride safe and enjoy everyone!

I'm with you my friend on your impressions of the F6B...We all like to modify/change our bikes to suit our liking and I think that what others do is none of my business...We all have different needs and wants....After owning my F6B since fall of 2013 I have made about the same changes as you have...Custom paint, Cobra pipes, Mustang seat, Baggershield windscreen, Kuryakyn grips, and a few cosmetic/chrome things...I also had my riding boot soles/heels raised a couple years ago and I have now decided to leave well-enough alone...Gave much thought to Heli-bars, risers, Superbrace, etc. and came to the conclusion, earlier today for whatever reason, I am done and love my ride the way it is as it fits my needs just fine.....Ride safe

I felt the same way 7 months ago when I traded in my 2010 FLHX for a 2014 f6b deluxe.
During the 7 months of owning the F6B, I ended up with:
Breakaway throttle lock
Clearview windshield
Mustang seat
Lowering rear shock linkage
Customized centerstand
Foam grips
Under the mirror wind deflectors
Ergo 2 highway pegs
Show Chrome floorboards
Goldwing passenger floorboards
Rocky risers
Lol

I'm now looking at rush slip ons, madstad windshield,
MP3 luggage rack.....

Now I know it's an addiction, no matter what bike I have/ ride.
When I think about it, I have never left any of my bike stock.

What makes me feel ok with all the mods is that I haven't had the need/ want to touch the power train which means that I'm not messing with the proven reliability of the honda goldwing.

thats the beauty of the 6
while there is not as huge an aftermarket as Harleys have
there still is the ability to tailor our bikes to or own needs
i guarantee that after a while you too will tweak your near perfect 6
its in our nature,

It's always individual way to add "personality" to our toys .
Sometimes it's very necessary ... It helps to love them even more .

Loved mine as it was new 'cept the windshield. Still smile every time I get on it. But, I keep ordering more stuff. Don't really like the new Rush exhaust. Shoulda kept it stock.

Which exhaust do you have ? What don't you like about it?
