    stop light conversations

    I'm wondering how often this happens to you guys. I'm stopped at a light and the car in the next lane stops short to compliment me on my F6B. The light turns green and he still wants to talk. This has happened 2 or 3 times a month since April.

    Is this common to other bike brands too?

    I don't hear my friends with brand new "V-Twins" getting this kind of attention.

    Don't get me wrong...I LOVE this attention. Then of course trying to be humble with this mile wide grin is difficult.

    If I can't fix it, I will fix it so no one can fix it.

    Hilarious. I also had a guy ask and take a picture one day heading into work. Never in 40 years of riding on any other bike has that happened.

    Traffic lights, parking lots, gas stations...

    Only had the bike for a couple months and have been chatted up about six times

    I LOVE this bike...

    I do get the stares at stoplights but try not to notice. The brunt of the F6B gawkers are at fuel stops, that's when I always get someone asking me what it is!! I always reply it's a "flat six bagger" and ride off into happy time.

    Yep, It happens to me often. Actually happened yesterday 3 times. Twice at lights and once fueling up. Does put a smile on my face.

    Had my F6B since June and no dice I get nothing at stop lights or gas stations.Now when I had the Spyder yes everywhere I went people talking could not get away from them.
    I do get some action at Hooters bike night but not that much

    ME? Nada.... The Wife??? Yep. Happened with our Yami's before and even more so now with the 6's.

    She's kind of a 'Chatty Cathy' and I'm a grumpy old fart, so I just let her talk to 'em!! LOL!!

    CAR CHASE

    This summer I had a guy chase me down to get a look at the F6B. I mean I had no idea until after about the 6th or 7th turn that this guy only wanted to take a good look. LOL
