Saw this nice looking Goldwing turned into a F6B for sale on the GL1800riders.com site.  Has all the options of a Goldwing without the trunk.  The seller does live close to me but I don't know him and have never seen this bike.  Here is the link and write up on the bike:

2012/13 F6B Conversion $14900 OBO
Thinning the herd. My F6B started life as a 2012 GW Audio/Comfort model purchased in August of 2012. Bike has 20,405 miles on it. I saw Schroader’s Honda conversion to a F6B at the 2013 WingDing and knew I wanted it. The conversion was completed in two days mid October 2013 and included a Corbin heated Dual Tour seat and F6B passenger footpegs. So you get all the GW functions with the awesome F6B looks. The brake recall has been completed. Only one issue since I owned it was the wheels. Clear coat was coming off and Honda replaced both wheels, TPMS sensors and I added new tires last year (mileage 16,723). All the service is up to date except the air filter. I camera scoped it and it is still good so I haven’t done that yet. I have added a few accessories since the conversion: L.E.D turn signals and running lights, Aero pegs, ErgoMot X electric windscreen with 4 inches of movement, MRA touring spoiler, Texelent bar with Touratech locking mount, Kuryakyn running and brake light, and Baker Hand Wings. I am sure there is some stuff I have forgotten. Bike is in great shape with normal wear for a four year old bike. I can email more detail and photos on request.

He has lowered the price to $13,000. Is very tempting. I still haven't seen it but it's only 30 miles from my house. Might have to take a look even though I'm not supposed to buy any more bikes. The bike would be worth more if he hadn't converted it from a regular Wing.  Has a real nice look, but not a 2-up touring bike for us.

Yeah, it's been on Craigslist for a while.

It's no mystery why you haven't seen it, 20,000 miles in just over 4 years. It's been in his GARAGE. I ride that many miles in ~9 months, just commuting.

It is a nice looking bike though.
I briefly considered the F6B when they first came out, but prefer no payments.
I wonder what that converted GW has that the F6B doesn't? (but not enough curiosity  or cash to call the guy)
