    My New F6B

    The Dealer delivered my 2015 F6B last Wednesday. It has installed on it the following Big Bike Parts, Smoked Chrome accessories. Side Accessory Group, the Front Accessory Group, the Cockpit Accessory Group, the Rear Accessory Group and the Smoked Tour Luggage Rack. I purchased the Dupli-Color Shadow chrome blackout coating and done the front disc covers, foot rests and some parts on the front fender chrome parts. I have not taken it out on a ride yet because of the weather.

    I have one of the older J&M CFRG-GL18 Cell Phone/GPS/Radar Detector Auto Integration Terminal for GL1800. I have used this on two Goldwings. It is just too large for the room under the left glove box to put it. All I would like to have is to hookup my cell phone to work through my helmet speakers. Is there any system available without having to purchase the expensive new J&M CFBR-GL18 wireless system?

    That's gorgeous, the smoked chrome works perfect with the gray.
    What windshield do you have there?

    It is a Tulsa windshield. I had purchased it for my 2012 Goldwing but had never installed it. I don't know if I like it to well. I may take it off and cut about two inches off the bottom and drill new holds to lower it about two inches.

    Congrats on the new ride Jerry. If you want to go completely wireless, I would recommend investing in a Bluetooth system such as the Sana SMH10 or 20S. If you want to keep your existing JM headset and just want to listen to your tunes, etc through your cell phone, then you can use the front aux cord in your front left accessory box to plug in.

    The third option is to possibly place your older JM device in the front right accessory area (where the heated grips controller is) and run your lines from there to the bottom of the left accessory box to plug in.

    Or double stick/zip tie your JM module to the bottom of your front fairing (under your headlights) and run it into your left accessory box?

    As you may know, the CFBR-GL18 system fits and works great on the F6B. As you mention, however, it is quite expensive. I was lucky to buy a used one from another forum member. Maybe you can get lucky and find a good used one too .

    Fast Forward...checked on eBay and here is a new one for a reduced price:

    Nice bike and welcome.....I personally am not big on all the chrome stuff on some bikes, but yours looks nice..I also am not a fan of the front caliper chrome covers, but otherwise it is sharp....Ain't America great with all the personal choices we have and if your happy, so am I......The F6B is one super ride and I know you will enjoy the bike......Regards
