I really like the blue. The '17 CB looks handsome in that color.

Wow- I'm a sucker for blue, but a flush cap doesn't match the style of this bike- nor would I want to buy a new cap, proper fuel pump, etc...

But yea....I really like the blue color!

I give up. What is a relectoronomy?

I give up. What is a relectoronomy? I think Gord means "reflectorectomy," the operation necessary for new bikes in North America wherein excess reflectors are removed. Not required in Germany.

Thank you, baxtercat. That makes sense.

Not so much that It's "necessary" or a requirement by law. More that if you wish, you may remove them without any legal issues?


RE: 2018 EX blue - Randy B - 04-12-2018

I chose the darker blue for my 2013 and as far as I know it's still the only one in North America this color.

Yep, that is what I need so to speak but it would be cheaper to have the tank painted locally.

I couldn't tell you if its actually illegal to remove those ugly, stupid, cheap plastic reflectors here or anywhere in the US, but its the first thing I do. I've never had a law enforcement officer call into question the operational integrity of my bike! Big Grin
