Instruments icon??? - Ridem32_imp - 04-29-2014
2014 deluxe. When you switch key on the gauges sweep & all the warning lights come on . There is one icon (emblem) that comes on I don't know what it is! Not in the manual looks like a heated grip icon ?? I don't know if the 13 models have this or if it's for over seas bike someone let me know what it is

Yes, icon for heated grips. You can order such for the EX.

That's what I thought it was but not sure I know you could get heated grips for the 13 but not for the 14 but I'm not sure but some non USA bikes may can get heated grips and they use the same cluster for all country's

I have a new 2014 on order and have a question about the instrument cluster.
Having liters /Km and than miles/gal , are they using Imperial gallons or American gallons ?

never noticed it

I do like more retro looking '13 gauge package over the 14's. The xtra info is cool though.

How does the blue work out in the sunlight? The '13 is boring black and...well...grey and...anyway it's easy to see.
The TFTP displays Ducati et. al. are using are way cool; even in the brightest direct sunlight they're just a colorful and easy to read as if you were in a dimly lit room looking at a computer monitor. Although to Ack's point; it really wouldn't fit the CB's design motif.

It looks like it may be more visible than the 13. It's definitely easy to see/read.
