Split drive belts and destroyed tyres, sounds like you'd better change to an Africa Twin or so, if you want to change to the right manufacturer anyway. At least the right amount of cylinders, that F6 has far too many pots for you. 
Hehehe, yep an AT would be a good choice, I love the look of
Em. However not a good choice for pillioning, a tad too snug and cramped.
Yep the the fb6 is the right brand, a true blue Honda. No doubt will have some similarities to a CBR................ bullet proof reliability and sensible maintenance, hehehe.
That said, my darling wife (aka the bank manager) has just declined the fb6 application................. she likes the noise, bling, power and comfort of the big Vulcan, Bugger, I miss read that one 😄
I've tried all the usual husband trickery, you know the ones, plenty of talking up the bike, showing pretty pics, visit to the bike shop, talking to owners, but alas her love of the big Vulcan wins over. Bugger, I'll try again year year, 👍
Not to worry, the Vulcan is still a great beautiful beastie to hammer the road with and scare little children and their dogs (interpreted as: Harley owners and their bikes, hehehe)
👍
