    2014 F6B is here.

    So the answer to the lingering question is yes, there is a 2014 F6B and F6B Deluxe. No changes I can see in specs other than color. The black is back but the red is gone and replaced by Pearl Yellow.

    Somebody on the board definitely called it as 2014 being just a change in colors. Not a "one and done", not a model year pause, no ABS or cruise.

    Still prefer the black. Pearl white would have been a better choice.

    This is pretty clever by Honda.

    The change of color to yellow and not offer the Red allows them to continue to sell any "over stock" Red 2013 models through 2014. The Black has always been a classic color for the Valkyries and Runes and looks great on the F6B (Batman Motorcycle)

    I wonder how long til someone paints bees on it.

    I'm glad to see it's not gone so maybe we'll get more aftermarket support.

    Being in Bumblebee yellow and having the "face" that the front cowel has gives a great canvas for someone to do a Transformers theme though.

    If the color truly is "pearl" yellow, might that paint be clear-coated? If so, that would definitely be a plus.

    Black and yellow are the two colors. Self-cancelling signals and center stand have been added as standard equipment, from what I can tell.

    Looks that way, the Deluxe model according to the website only mentions heated grips, passenger backrest and rear rack.

    Under overview it reads like this, so I think it is just color changes.

    "Two Levels Of Wow.
    Gold Wings have always been famous for creature comforts. So the Gold Wing F6B comes loaded with everything from surround sound to an adjustable air suspension. The F6B Deluxe goes even further, with self-cancelling turn signals, backrest, heated grips, centerstand and more. You even have your choice of color—luxurious Black or Pearl Yellow"
