What's the stroy with the first one, did you buy a '13 and then liked the DLX '14 better when it came out the following year? Or was it something else?

Yes I bought the 13 actually before it was released, rode it one year, 8400 miles then when the 14 dlx came out I traded the 13 in. Loved the new features on the DLX... the chrome waterfall head pipes, the dual exhaust (like Cormanus said, the symmetry of it), the 6 speed trans, the silver motor and wheels, the larger capacity fuel tank, the digital gear indicator, the additional polished parts here and there.

I think the 13 was sportier, I think the 14 is classier. Loved my 13, love my 14 dlx more.
