Sounds like a good deal. Enjoy the ride!

AndyHe, Congratulations on a getting the bike you wanted at a reasonable price. Welcome aboard. I'm sure you will be very happy with it, just like other folks around here. Some people don't like the bike, but fortunately we don't see much of them.
It's not really my place to say this, but a couple of things seem to happen here: first, photos are essential. Sometime on Saturday we'll be looking for a picture of your beautiful new red ride.
Secondly, it might be nice if you were to toddle over to the new members section, say g'day and tell us a bit about yourself. But that's up to you. No matter what, it's good to have you around.

Congrats Andy!

Buy the engine guards. You can't buy the deluxe rear rack from a usa dealer. They can't even get it if you give them the honda part #. Buy the bike and be happy.

I called other dealers in the area and that's probably about as good as I'm going to get for this area so I'll pick up the bike on Friday. It's not a great price but it's not horrible either considering the > $1050 just in taxes and licensing fees.That's not bad, I think I paid $11,200 including everything for my 2013, so you got a deluxe for a little more.
Now I just need to decide if I want the engine guards and luggage rack at cost or not. Definitely yes on the engine guards but I'm thinking about buying the honda top box from samurider which includes the luggage rack.
The reason why I didn't wait was because this is exactly the bike I want. Even if they came out with spokes and different colors for 2015, I'd want the deluxe just as it is today. Could have waited for a used deluxe to come on the market but there's something about that new bike smell...
Don't rush into accessories, you have all winter to think about them, and you'll lose any price advantage you gained on the purchase.
For instance, I went with Moriwaki? sliders instead of engine guards for mine. Also went through a few helmets, jackets, luggage, etc.
Take your time.

Thanks for all the tips and encouragement!
Well I may be jumping the gun but I'm quite excited about taking delivery so I just ordered the Honda top box, engine guards, and Road Comet 1 in red with stripes from Samurider. Guess I'm really committed to this whole thing now. I'll post pictures when I get it all.
I used to have a small fairing similar to the road comet on my CB400T back in college and loved it. Not so sure about how the top box will look but that was necessary to get my wife as passenger on the bike as she would only ride if she had something behind her.

Great picture. I'm looking for the same look except not going for the taller windscreen.
It looks like in that picture that the luggage rack is slightly higher than the rear seat. Anyone have any experience with the luggage rack being in the way when a passenger is on the back? Hopefully their legs/butt aren't also resting on the luggage rack supports as that might be uncomfortable.
