Hello, I'm BG Rides (aka Hollywood) because I like to make movies :) I love to ride bikes around the country and everywhere in between. Traveling on a bike is such an incredible feeling. A group of us go on our annual 10 day bike trip each year. We love to ride, but really enjoy the journey and the friendships on the road. If you're thinking about getting into motorcycle riding, just do it, get the bike, don’t wait. No one's getting any younger and you're going to have a blast! It's all about the journey, the friendships, and the discovery! Get out there and see the country and I'll see you on the next ride :) Thanks for watching!!!! o
Great review. I'm glad you sat on the bike and showed riding position. I'm looking at one and don't know how I'll fit... I'm 6'2" so I was hoping it would be a good riding position! Thanks.
I'll give it a try now. Hopefully my hands are small enough. Very talented youtube video maker. The parallel to the car, back and forth in the video, was brilliant. Post Note - 5 min job. Easy once you see the steps. Thanks
The last key is to remove the seat. Under the seat, among other things, you find a small compartment useful for paperwork, a small toolkit, and emergency cash.
Gotta love those RS. We've had a few of them over the years and they've all worked out to be great bikes. We've taken them on long 2 wk rides and they worked flawlessly.
I have had mine for 11 years - you get used to it. I am 5'8 with a 30 inseam. Careful at low speeds and I have to get off to push it but its a great bike.
Hey John, The F6B are great bikes. I've taken my F6B on many two week, 5000 mile trips and it's worked perfectly. Great power also. Sometimes you'll wish it had a sixth speed, but the torque /power curse in every gear is great. If I were to get one, make sure it has a center stand and cruise.
The shaft drive on my 2012 Concours locked up at 80 mph a couple of weeks ago. I skidded for about a block and nearly fell but didn't. The bike is awesome after a full titanium exhaust and ECU flash. I got mine up to 177 on the analog dash.
the fact that they continue to make a modern sport touring bike without cruise control just baffles me. All of the other features could be amazing but they'll never do numbers with this bike without cruise control . Just unreal how stupid it is that they don't have cruise control.
The F6B doesn't come with a trunk, so if you're riding with a passenger, then the Goldwing is nice. I personally like the F6B. Looks a little sportier without the trunk. You'll find the Goldwing has a few more little features than the F6B, but I didn't miss any of them when I had my F6B. The trunk on a Goldwing is nice if you like bring a little more stuff on trips. You can lock up everything without worrying about someone steeling something. I would say the ride performance comparison is very similar. I had the F6B and loved it. I took it on many two-week trips and loved it.
So, what you have demonstrated is that the Honda assembly line starts with an air filter and they assemble the entire motorcycle around it??? Sort of like the heater core in a car...
I have a 2015 Concours 14 and it is unquestionably my favorite bike of all that I have had. I have the risers installed as well and they are great! Absolutely agree with them that this bike hauls balls! It must be respected…
I had a custom seat done at Rich's. Very comfortable. Here's a video link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0TieGPqZjvY.htmlsi=jUC9Y6QzymqjbKSU
Hi goflyfpv2798, That's a great question. I never tested this, but I'd guess it would take a few seconds. Basically, the time in between when the sensor looks at the pressure and updates the phone app. This is just a guess.
Congratulations for the comprehensive and clear video. Well done, I'll be sure to watch you again. One question: should I lubricate the cylinders or not?
Me personally, if everything is working good, I'd save that for another maintenance service. It's a good question. You could ask a service shop also if they would recommend lubricating also. I can ser the pros and cons. We just did the shoes and everything worked great. Thanks for watching.
Ron took this bike on our 2023 sumner trip. We normally go for a two week trip. It was his first trip and he's somewhat new to riding. It took it pretty easy, but I would imagine the bike would do great trail braking.
Hi @bookooc5605, Great point. I must have been sleeping on the job to not start the beast. Hopefully this video helped. Were actually thinking about selling this bike. the guy that was going to ride it on our summer trip backed out so we don't need it now.
