Hadn't seen the web site pictures before today so wasn't looking for differences, but overall impression is it looked (at least essentially) the same.

I believe ride4now and possibly others will be going to Daytona this weekend. Perhaps someone else will have an opinion...

I did go today and overnight tonight. Guys, beauty is in the eye of the be-holder. Even so, I hate to say it... the lines of that tank are too extreme for my tastes. In fact, even though I'm sure i'm wrong, the bike looks smaller than the DLX.

Here's two shots of the tank from the rear.
It just looks odd to me.

Here's two more... same side though...

I rode my DLX to Daytona from St Pete today and since I parked near the Honda tent, I pretty much got off my bike and right on the new one for comparison. I'm sorry, if I didn't own my Deluxe, I don't know if I'd do this one. I'd consider even a '13 if I wanted red and couldn't find a DLX.

Remember, beauty is in the eye of the be-holder.

Here's my DLX as I was leaving St Pete early this morning. I think I'll keep it.
