Plus your bike, especially the exhaust, is cleaner and the hills were greener. Can't wait to see your pics on the DLX from there.
RE: Black or Red ? - kballowe_imp - 04-07-2015
I thought that the 14's came with a muffler on each side.
Personally, I like the 4-into-1
RE: Black or Red ? - the Ferret - 04-07-2015
Only the dlx comes with 4 into 2 (and the EX which we don't get in the US)
RE: Black or Red ? - Wisedrum - 04-07-2015
The CB dressed in black is a good option. I prefer this (un)color.
Don`t know about the 14 model in US, but in Europe it really put on some weight
in comparison to the 13. And more tragically looses it's Combined Break System.
The 4 in 1 exhaust system is a nice one. If I ever would change it,
then it should be a 4 in 4 like the original 750. But this is too expensive for me.

RE: Black or Red ? - the Ferret - 04-07-2015
Wisedrum our black is different than your black. Your black has silver motor and wheels our black has black motor and wheels.
USA 13 and 14 stds would weigh the same or really really close. There has been no difference in weight published.
Our DLX is the same as your EX with the dual pipes only with mags instead of spokes and more weight.
Honda makes this fun with all the different years, models and country specs doesn't it? Lol
RE: Black or Red ? - Wisedrum - 04-07-2015
Yes, Honda does. Maybe Honda knows, what customers want in different countries.
Or they suppose, they know.
It's a bit confusing, but now, you explained all the differences.
I hope, I can keep them in mind and do not mix them up too often.

RE: Black or Red ? - dr_rock_imp - 04-07-2015
Doesn't the 14 in both black and red have a larger gas tank as well which does add more weight? The red 14 has the nice brick seat as well.
RE: Black or Red ? - emptysea - 04-07-2015
The 2014 standard (black in the US) retains the smaller gas tank
