Just to give my two cents, I'm with 1985CB450 on this one. My '13 was a great deal for a pristine, low-mile bike when I bought it. Five minutes of research showed me that the price was lower than a '14 most likely due to the five speed. But, it was the right bike at the right time, and I'd had enough black bikes (a '14 dlx would have broken the bank at the time). And at highway speeds, I never regret the lack of a sixth gear. It's not ready to blow up at 80 mph, where it sits for a good portion of any riding I need to do.
