    I was just up thru your neck of the woods about 3 weeks ago, I came across M55 to Tawas and ran 23 up thru Oscoda to Alpena and then took 32 back across thru Gaylord and down 131 back to my home in Cadillac. Always liked that ride up the coast as I was a delivering freight up that route before I retired. Its nicer on the B instead of a truck though.

    Valve Stems

    When I bought my F6B I was surprised that Honda was still using those same rubber valve stems that my Valkyries had. I had one mess up a trip, too. Needless to say my old Valkyries and new F6B all have metal stems now. I even added Show Chrome TPMS to the F6B. It's nice to see the tire pressures and temperatures as you ride.

    Sweet Ride Bro,

    Got mine right out of the crate as well.

    Let the aftermarket accessory binge begin! Great group of folks on this forum, much like the VRCC. Welcome and congrats!

    Welcome, RTaz! I bought a 2013 out of the crate last summer from a dealer in Oak Creek, Wisconsin. Got a pretty good deal on it also.

    Former Valkyrie Interstate owner. I totaled out two but neither was really my fault---wrong place at the right time. Bought the B after the second total out and haven't looked back. LOVE the B.

    I was wiggydotcom on the VRCC but just wiggy here.

    I also have tire pressure monitors but have the FOBO brand..I really like them for piece of mind---especially since I'm running a Bridgestone Driveguard runflat and want to know if it loses pressure.

    Thanks again

    I am a long time member of the Valkyrie Riders Cruisers Club and have been blessed with a lot of good friends from that group. I'm glad to see many of the people over here too, Dave, JackB, Wiggy, sixtogo and I'm sure there are a lot more. Seadog next time your coming through this area let me know maybe we can hook up and ride. I wonder if their are anymore F6B riders here in Michigan?

    There's Seadog in Cadillac.
    Opas Ride in Oakland County.
    There's a few others scattered around the lower peninsula.
    We had one rider in the UP, but he traded his F6B in for a trike.
    I'm in Macomb County, only seen a handful of F6B's in my area.
