A test ride will definitely be on the agenda for me when my local dealer gets them in. I attended their "preview" last Nov. or Dec. of all the new models, and was really impressed by the difference in quality and detail. The gauge cluster was just beautiful, in fact. The look seems a lot more faithful to the Bonnies of old, too...and that new black and white paint job just takes my breath away.
But the changeover to the 270 firing order is something I'll never understand. Loved my '12 Bonnie, but the power always seemed lacking - it'll be interesting to see if the new engine is markedly more gutsy or not, and just how much the "radically improved" suspension really is improved over the buckboard entry-level set-up of the outgoing model.
