    For me coming off of a Harley, I like the quiet smooth power without spending thousands to get it to "run right"

    the worst for me are:
    foot position, ( still getting used to it from forward controls)
    No Cruise control
    Having to use the ignition key to unlock the bags
    Piss poor paint!

    I do like this bike a lot.

    Hate the paint.
    Having to use a key to start, Harley got that right. Not really a defect though.

    Love this bike!!

    Like - Engine, Handling, ABS Brakes

    Dislike - Stock Windshield, Paint (it is typical of black), Have to use key for saddle bags.

    Truth is I can live with the shortcomings as the strong points of this bike really overshadow the shortcomings.

    I love my F6B and am fascinated by the number of compliments from non-riders and riders of all types of bikes.

    The funniest was a mother and her young son who approached me at Starbucks and trhe kid asked me if I was Batman!!!! I've also had 3 other people tell me that the bike "looks like something Batman would ride". Very cool!!!

    I hated the windshield put on a honda line windshield, I change the brake pedal show Chrome, I change the shifter to kuryakyn - raised back rest
    Added a go cruise -kuryakyn highway pegs - kuryakyn risers and I'm ordering a drivers backrest.
    I gutted the muffler tips an drilled 7 - 1/2 holes in the muffler - I like the sound It don't even care if anybody else does

    I would have to say that there is something wrong with your one particular bike, if you are killing your pegs and belly pan. Mine has over 7000 miles on it now, and I have not scraped my pegs once, and have not even scratched my belly pan. What are you running over ?

    I agree!!! I don't have as many miles on my bike as Miles does but I have only scraped a peg once.

    Maybe it's not the bike it's the rider being a little heavy I have that problem also, but I love the low rider look working on losing the weight lol
