after putting about 1,000 miles on the F6B I though it time to talk about the bike and how it is far better than my expectations! this is a bit of a ride and review, riding a great back road on the Honda Goldwing Flat Six Bagger is such a pleasure

Love my '15 F6B Deluxe, cruise is nice and I just enjoy the smooth powerful engine!

Ah yes I added cruise control to my '13 definitely must have! And that engine! Fantastic

Nice review, looking at these for my next bike for long touring. Toured the Western Mountains in North Carolina/ Tennessee border this week with my FJR 1300 which were great on the twist and elevations.

Thanks! Love this bike, definitely a different ride than all my sport touring bikes. Actually took me a year of looking at them thinking, Holley heck they are big...then finally did a side by side comparison with the three BMWs, the Harley, Indian, the Yamaha the newer goldwing and this, that finally got me to make the change and go for it. Absolutely love it!! I did add cruise control, I think that is a must for long distance, so getting one with it already would be worth it!

What an awesome ride! Just bought my 2013 F6B in Magna Red, still waiting for the weather to get nicer here to take it for a ride. Watched your video several times already as it makes me jump inside hearing it go :)

Congratulations! Such an amazing bike! It started out raining this morning, but cleared up so I'm out playing with the bike again!!!

Cool...I am looking at a 2014 F6B....I currently have an ST1300....750lbs....my concern with the F6B is no center stand, no cruise control and no reverse....I have to watch where to park the ST ....no down hills where I need to walk it back....this worries me with the F6B....did you get the Deluxe that has reverse?

@@robertmacdonald2735 totally understandable! I got the deluxe model with heated grips, center stand and back rest. As I type this I'm installing the electronic cruise control. No reverse and I'm totally okay with that, and have never been in a situation where I would have used it. Note: adding electronic cruise control is an all day job, I will split it into two days, feels like a complete bike teardown!

@@TRCAdventuresHey, I bought mine two weeks ago, 2013 red and black ! And the sunny roads are already there, in France. Which type of cruise control are you installing ? I’m looking for such a usefull device. ✌️

@@jcd9327 MC Cruise, cruise control, I installed it a few weeks ago, works fantastic. It's a BIG job to install and has had some updates since they first released it, with that the instructions and some of the parts are a little different. I gave them a couple points of feedback that could simplify the installation a little. It is a great unit and works as good as the one on my car!

That was a relaxing video to watch. The video down sierra grade, however, reminded me of the pain I endured on my many climbs up that road on my bicycle. Ouch. Especially after about 70 miles in the legs.

I've heard that it is a popular place to send bicycles during events quite a steep climb!

@@TRCAdventures Tour of California routes through here often but it’s a very popular long ride for Tri-Valley and San Jose riders who want a beautiful 100 mile loop that includes Mines/Hamilton climb. Sierra Grade is the steepest though and easily bypassed so you really need to be motivated to include that in the loop.
