Evomind,

Looked at the BMW K1600?
Comfy, quick, and can seriously handle the corners.

Just a thought...

I just looked at it on your suggestion......the K1600 GT is pretty cool.
Looks like a great bike but aesthetically I prefer the Honda. I like the sleeker lines of the f6b. I would like the Honda A LOT more if it had 160 hp and 130 lbs of tq like the BMW.
That bike must rip considering what it is.....
Nice bike and thanks for the suggestion, I will check them out in person.

Guys, my problem is that I like just about everything...Except full dressers.
I don't have weird avarices towards some particular brand and Im a fanboy of none but think theyre all pretty good
 

No, its no Rocket 3 and I don't think it was intended to be, nor am I making any kinds of comparos.
The rocket 3 really is a uniquely classed bike, there really are no competitors.
 
You guys will get a kick out of this...at ROT (Republic of Texas Bike Rally for the uninitiated) we saw a hearse trailer that was pulled by a Harley Trike. Looked kinda like the wild west hearse wagons with glass sides, lots of chrome, black, etc. Apparently they rent this thing out for funerals. My blushing bride, God bless her, asked the dude..."Can you pull that thing with a Rocket?" The guy had no idea what a Rocket was. He was baffled, she was baffled because she thought everybody knew what a Rocket was...I nearly fell on the floor laughing. She's determined that this thing will drag me to my eternal rest. Go for it, I said. I won't give a $hit, but my friends will think it's funny as hell!! Imagine...making money with your bike (or trike as the case may be) hauling dead people around...will wonders never cease...

A few years back my little bro bought an new MV F4, paid nearly $40k AUD, it was on the road 4 out of the first 12 months he had it - batteries, start motor, alternator and myriad electrical issues kept back at the dealer. Also a **** shame - it went like sh*t of a stick and if a chick walked within 5 metres of it she'd fall pregnant.
 

The triumph dealership also sells MV!s and allowed me a ride on a f4 and with out a doubt it was the most exciting bike I have ridden .the only thing I found with it that it was more suited to a person about 5foot 6inches tall and about 70kilograms.,in saying that I thoroughly enjoyed my time on it
