Mine is a 2013, so the same as "yours". I do not find it heavy, it's taller and when loaded with the cases full it's more bike to handle than the CB for sure.

I often take all the case off of the RT and ride it naked. It's a super fun bike.

I have never needed to stop because the bike was not cooling. If you are moving it's totally fine. If you are in Orlando in August in stop and go traffic for a long while, sure it might overheat. The way I look at is, I will overheat before the bike does....
