Besides the different fuel tank, which you already mentioned, there are three other main differences between the '16 and '17. The least important one would be all the extra bling on the '17, what with the additional chrome and aluminum pieces, the LED lighting, and the spoke wheels. The second difference is more noticeable from the saddle, and that is the new exhaust note. The '17 has a deeper, meaner, louder rumble, with a much more V4-style tactile feel throughout the bike, largely due to the new exhaust system. The final, most important difference, is the '17 has vastly improved suspension, compared to any previous model-year CB1100.
