Sorry about the Valk but that F6B is beautiful. :cooldude: :cooldude:
The chrome cover on the Valk still looked pretty good.
So a BMW guy bought another Honda, Whats that about? ;D
ledany:
Robert, As you known it's my second chrome cover ! ;D
I was a convinced beemer (K100, R1100R, K1200R, K1200GT, R1200 GSLC) but I discovered the Honda world (231 000 km/135,500 mls with the Valk 2014), the reliability, and the low maintenance costs (BMW : 98$/h ; Honda : 66$/h) though the maintenance of the Bagger DCT will be more expensive (the tires are unusefully big, 130 front, 200 rear).
The Bagger DCT has a better mpg ratio than the Valk but is much slower : 180 km/h-112 mls/h max and this is not enough in our old countries ;D

Wow you must stand out like a sore thumb with a Honda bagger. :o
All the BMW guys must think you lost your mind or money ;D
Someone probably makes a limiter delete, that eliminates the bike from going faster at top end.
ledany:
Yes Robert, you can delete the limiter (500 $ or so) but times have changed ; I'm getting old and not so eager to compete on the road with the other users (knowing an ordinary MT-07 is faster :2funny:)
People here drive obviously more slowly (watching TV, scrolling on the phone :crazy2:) and I've realized ten years ago riding the R1200 GS LC how dangerous it is to use the full power of a modern bike on an everyday basis.
The wingers here worry if deleting the limiter would havoc the DCT ; I'm sure you have the answer Robert ! :coolsmiley:
