"The F6B is a new platform for Honda, designed to bring in a different crowd. It has everything that riders love about a Gold Wing, but is a sportier version of the touring standard." Klock said. "If you would have told me we could design a windshield to help a Gold Wing handle even better than it already does, I would have doubted it, but when we tested our Flare™ Windshield on it, it did just that! We are really excited to add Honda fitments to the available line of our original Flare™ Windshields, and are proud to be able to showcase our Flare™ along with other custom touches on this project."

Klock donated his team's design and labor time for the F6B project, as well as the original Klock Werks Flare™ Windshield. Other donated parts and accessories include front 180/55-18 and rear tires from Avon Tyres, raked 180 tree kit from Hannigan Motorsports, drink holder, saddlebag trim, floorboards and rear reflector from Kuryakyn, Cerrakote flat black exhaust by Liquid Designz, Mustang seat and backrest pad, Eclipse series "Temper" front wheel from RC Components, SoCal Moto Gear's HID headlights and smoked mirror turn signals, Monster Oval exhaust system from Vance and Hines, and custom badges and license plate frame, courtesy of XYZ Machine.

"It was great to get our hands on this bike," Klock said. "We gave the F6B an even thicker look and more attitude with a 180 front tire, along with the rest of these subtle, but custom, touches." 

The winner of this decked-out Honda F6B will be drawn in May 2016. Tickets are available one for $5 or five for $20 at the AIMExpo, the International Motorcycle Shows, the Honda tent in Daytona, the MotoGP in Austin, and The Quail Gathering.
