    Visited RideNow of Ocala this afternoon and got to see a new 2018 with the seven speed auto! A remarkable looking machine! The dealer wants my 2013 for a trade and said he would would work out a good price once his service department went over my bike. It's tempting! I'll have to get back to him as I was in a rush.

    Was able to sit on the bike while a salesman held the front end. Great seating and I'm able to flat foot like my 13. Suspension seemed much more plush than the F6B. They actually started the bike and the exhaust note, at idle, was impressive. Fit and finish were typical Honda and the front suspension was impressive. What I really liked was the adjustable windshield! I'm 6' 2" so one of the first mods would be a taller upper piece available from Honda. There are no longer any tubular crash bars! They've been replaced with with small stylish side bumpers. The rear passenger foot rests are clean and invisible when in the raised position.

    Honda has done a remarkable job with the New Wing IMHO!
