    I live in a city of about 280,000 and I have seen a couple besides mine. One goes past my house on a semi regular basis and I try to hail him down, but his nose is so high in the air he doesn't see or hear me.

    I've got three friends that have them. All are great looking bikes. Only once have all four of us ridden together. Other than those guys I've only seen 3 or 4 others.

    I have owned 2 of them in past 6 months. First one I had 6 weeks and totaled it. Turned around and bought another. My guess in why you dont see them is people dont ride them. The first 1 I bought was a 13 bought it in November of 2018 he bought it new in 2013. it had 9,000 miles. the second one I bought was another 2013 that original owner bought in 2013. It had 2,383 miles. So one was 5 years old with 9,000 miles the other 5 years old with 2,383 miles. That is why no one sees them on road. My bike will be seen now, I not saving it for anyone I going to ride the ass off of it. I have averaged a little over 25,000 miles a year the past 5 years. I was laid up after my crash and was not on bike til April and have 6,500 miles since then.

    Yes 100s, must have looked at more than 40 last year on a 18 state 7000 mile trip that included a F6B rally where over 30 were in attendance. Another rally the year before in the Smokies and I do know the difference in a HD and a F6B.

    Pretty rare around these parts; I've only seen a handful in almost 7 years with it. Not a one in Europe last summer. Almost like owning a custom.

    Whatever you say my friend, but I seriously doubt you have seen "hundreds" but maybe so...I don't take many long trips but as most have said on this thread , maybe a handful of F6B's but not many more...Regards and ride safe
