The veracity of the non-spoke-ites is surprising! Let's see... windshield or no? Not for me. I like it. Ok, it's a matter of opinion. New tank or old tank? I like it. I prefer the old tank. Ok, it's a matter of opinion. Now onto spokes. I like em. What? SPOKELESS WHEELS ARE SUPERIOR IN EVERY WAY!!!
Um, alright.
(And I'm exaggerating a lot)
If you're looking for someone to justify older technology turned stylistic point on an almost ridiculously impractical mode of transportation with anything other than "I prefer spokes," you'll be disappointed.
That said, I prefer spokes and I always will no matter how many hours I need to slave, beer in hand, while listening to NPR and staying out of the wife's hair, in the garage, by myself, smiling and cleaning them and enjoying every minute of it, forever
Concerning the poll. For me, it's a draw. I can't decide about the new tank until I see it in person. I prefer the green gauges on the '14 but the pipes are tighter (not more-hip, I mean actually closer to the engine) on the '17 for a cleaner look. The LEDs and the aluminum bits are an upgrade but the difference in price dwarfs that by a country mile. Now, the wheels, I prefer...wait...I won't get into that
