Honda F6B - Long Term Owners Review

- Honda F6B video review. I guess that most of you never heard about this model before. It is actually almost the same as the famous Honda Goldwing. The owner of the bike John agreed to share his experience with the model with the idea to provide some useful information.
My brother has a GW6 - not my cuppa tea! I've done lots of k's behind the bars on it and the handling is ponderous at best. But the motor; the motor!!! Linial is apt - bags of power from zero revs and it just builds and builds and builds from there. Everyone should put a ride on GW on their bucket list - up front or hanging off the back. You have to experience that motor. You will be spoilt for the rest of your life.
The GW6 makes you plan ahead. You plan ahead for cornering; you plan ahead for braking; you plan ahead for parking; you plan ahead for everything.
I purchased a 2016 F6B Goldwing with mile 1on it April 2019. Now I have about 7000 miles. Love this bike.
It's allways nice having things you like 😊 Nice video, thanks! 👍
Good video! Does anybody know what the bar on the handlebars for the GPS mount is called? Or where to get it?
Nice bike
You look good on it
I’ve been thinking of getting an older goldwing
Get one, you won't regret it. Even the GL1500 is worth looking at.
Picked up a 2016 model last year. Best motorcycle Ive ever owned. Very pleased. Would value info on the handlebar and most importantly the clamps used to secure the bar. Ive been trying to figure out how to add a few farkels and youve done it. Where did you find the clamps ?
Great to hear!
Another of the great people you meet.
I am not gonna lie. I would like to try this beauty.
I don't think you've reviewed the newer Honda VFR 1200X, which is a rather tall seat height adventure bike, yet. Let us know when you do! It has the option of the DCT shift and has a shaft drive, neither of which you prefer vs manual shift and chain drive.
I’ve never seen one before. Love it. I was looking at goldwing bagger but this is way sexier.
Thanks for taking the time!
He looks enjoy the bike and it did looks comfortable
I've looked at that model fr a very long time. I like the look without the tour pack on the back.
This Bike is a bad cat ! Purchased one in 2017 a left over 2016 model .
I been riding for 48 years owned many Bikes . I love this thing , it's a harley killer , never got behind a harley I couldn't pass !
It is a flat 6 cylinder , and the Bike didn't cost that much in the states !
It is different!
Where did you get the accessories bar for your phone and GPS ????
Amazon

I like the looks and sound of that bike! It looks like it would be extremely comfortable on a long trip.
Its not. 5 kms and you just head for home. Do not buy one.
Honda always great brand quality quality quality that's a superb cruiser
Very interesting point of view.
Isn't that the Bagger? Such a cool thing
its a great road touring bike if you put many miles on the highway
Dream bike i own now a fjr 1300 its superb but maybe in the future a f6b
Good!
It has reverse?
No, the F6B doesn't have reverse, but I've never needed it. The early ones didn't have cruise control either.
I've had over 35 bikes, this is the only one I wish had ABS, it's so heavy it takes a lot of stopping. Looks like this one has ABS tho, mine is a US model with linked brakes.
I like the handle bars
I have one, same colour, I love it, best bike I ever had. That's not the stock screen btw, the sock one is shorter and terrible over 80kmh, the buffeting and noise is unbearable.
It's so smooth and comfortable, it's almost cheating.
what's the fuel consummation on such a bike and how many liters of oil does the engine needs?
@@eugstefan22 I get at least 230 miles to a tank, without the light coming on. So that's at least 34 mpg, don't know if that's good or bad, cos it's not one of my considerations. About 3.7 litres of oil in it.
I ended up putting a full sized Goldwing windshield on mine, and it went from being in buffeting and noise hell to an island of calm.
2015 models on have cruise control...
Could it be that John is Dutch ?
Nice bike !!
danyel9256 definitely Dutch
i thought he is australian but you are right
It's a beautiful bike.
Nice
Very cool. Also looks like a loaded Valkyrie
it is the same
Salute ✌🏾
Cool bike but a little too big for me and a bit out of my price range.
You can pick a used one up for 10k here
Wow, at first sight I thought it was Valkyrie
it is, called different some places.
If he's not the owner and isn't the type of bike he'd buy, how the hell can he give a long term owners review??
If you watch the video you will see that the owner of the bike gave the long term review, not me.
transverse six not v six
It's not V6 :)
Boxer , as a Porsche 911
F6b - Flat 6 bagger
0:00 Going on a tour? Why not take the house with you....
Might as well get a convertible automobile
where is the air conditioner 🤪
You are joiking, but I have R1200RT and went with my friend for a ride. She has got a scooter and when she was checking my bike, she laughed a lot and asked where I have air conditioning and why my panniers are not cooled :D
I have a 2012 Goldwing with 142,000 trouble free kilometers on it. I call the vent on lower part of the windshield my air conditioner. The red/black color on the 2014 F6B is to this day my favorite color on the F6B.
I like it, but WAY too big and heavy!
It doesn't feel heavy at all the second you start moving and it's 100 pounds lighter then the regular Goldwing which I've been riding for 8 years. I'm 67 now and it still doesn't feel too heavy for me to handle.
You’re not bench pressing or curling it. It’s weight so very low slung. They’re actually very nimble.
Red bikes rule!
a big scooter
But it’s Not a V-6; it’s a Straight - 6.
No it's a flat six. Like a Porsche.
I consider it an H6. Kinda like a Subaru.
correct i noticed too the mistake
I am about to import a F6b from Queensland to WA. Im transitioning from a zx14r and upgrading an old Nomad which I hardly ride now. I live in the south west 100s kilometres from a cit y so this bike will suit me. I was going to ride in the US next year but considering Trump has ruined the place I have cancelled the Hired Harley cruise up The Pacific Highway tgrough the Redwoods to Canada and Vancouver. So bought a f6b instead n will crewz WA.
Come on down , we have a joker in the whitehouse now that don't know where he's at !
I bought one imported from Queensland. Do not waste your time or money. Useless screen, seat, bars. Boring motor. Selling mine after 3 months and losing $5000 .Do not bother with it as it fails. Plus has mechanical proplems with front end. Mine sameyear and colour. That stock screen givesyou extreme buffeting over 60 kays. That seat cuts into your thighs when you stop. Thosebars flex half an inch and give vaque feedback. Andthe motor is Boring...low revving no powerband lw powermundane BORING. I am 67 and riding since 17 and this bike fails dismally.
Maybe you just got bad luck!
good way to be an old man
Rented it in Dubai, it's called valkyrie there, even got it offroad, it feels like a car, less my liking.
Thanks for sharing!
