I couldn't live with a 120 mph Speedo though. Thank God I got a 13 while I still could.

... Regarding the 120mph speedo vs. the 140mph...

Having 25+mph on the speedo that the needle could never possibly see due to the limiter seems, to me, like a design that was poorly thought out. Is there some downside to Honda's switch to a 120mph speedo on the '14s that I'm not aware of?

I like the needle to point straight up at around 70.
