I sure hope pricing is kinder to you than it was for people who paid retail in '13 and '14; 6 months after we bought we saw prices for brand NEW bikes going for $4,000 or $5,000 cheaper.
That's GOLD right there... don't let them stiff you with the old circular lights.
I just learned that I have arthritis in my right knee. And trust me it's really difficult to push back the bike considering I'm only 5'5. I don't want to goto Vtwin engine and like the looks of F6 better than gold-wing. Europe and Australia get to have reverse, I don't understand y Honda does not introduce it here in US.
I don't get that either Wantone; it'd be nice if they brought that feature to North America.
Matte Silver 2015 Honda Goldwing F6B Deluxe $19365 sale price, $5000 trade in, chrome pipes installed, Bagger-shield installed, Freight, Doc, accessories, labor, $16,903.00 Out the door.
Chattanooga Power Sports 2015 Matte (Deluxe) 17,480 plus tax. Better price than most stealers in Georgia.
Final drive ratio is about 3:1... how about getting a ring & pinion that drops this to about 2.5:1... perfect, done
This would also take the edge off of the extremely tall 1st gear.
Btw, there's no guarantee that mileage would improve... probably yes, but potentially no. Looking at the BSFC chart would help to answer this.
So today I call my local Honda dealer here in Rosevile ca. And give them the price Russellville quoted me 17999 OTD not including the Ca. tax and license Ill be req. to pay upon registration..I checked Ca. DMV calulator and tax and lic total 1550...So my totall would be 19550 after I pay the tax and lic here...Roseville said total w tax and license is 22250 and said "ive dealt with Russellville and theres no way they can do that"....Looks like the flight for myself and my gf will run. 600...Cant believe Ca. Wont match out of state prices...any suggestions other than offering Roseville the cost to fly and ride?
