Hi,well I bought an 2013 F6B after I wanted an upgrade from the Valk
as we have had her 5yrs.
As a solo mount I loved the Valk but put the wife on the back &
towing our camper I felt the Valk was outside it's comfort zone.
Enter the F6b... wow...if Honda had put the 1800 engine & brakes
from the F6B on to the Valk but kept some of the Valk looks,
I think they would have a winner for sure.I will keep the Valk for
a while but as I ride the F6B more,it is only a matter of time before
I sell her & move on.
Been a great  5yrs & still love the Valk.
Just wondering if anybody else has moved on to an F6B.
cheers  Smiley

No F6B but looking at used goldwings, just looking for now. 

Yah,  the 1800 goldwing has a tad bit more power but the looks I am still not sold on yet.  Plus,  the handlebar placement is very low and close to my body as well as the back/leg area is WAY, WAY upright sort of hard to get used to after being on the old Valk for 9 years or so.  It sits pretty upright for me. 

The prices surely have come way, way down on used goldwings though.
