Shout out to pekingduck who sold me the air box covers, although not mentioned by him. The grips are not heated, this is Florida for Pete's sack! Air conditioned seat would be priceless here
Everything that has been "changed" has been covered except ONE. No points for grips as they were changed before the seat and exhaust change. Good eye on the oil fill cap, I had actually forgot that myself
Just one more too catch, get in the spirit and list them all in one post and you will be the winner.

Ok, bike looks pretty sharp too. : )
Thank you for the compliment, I spent 2 years being my own general contractor on this house. The real beauty is in the back yard, and yes I mow my own grass!
Shout out to my beautiful wife and lovely daughter, they take all the pictures as I am just the "jack of all trades"
Thanks too all!

I'm gonna have to be the off-topic awhole -while everyone else tried to figure out the bike differences-and ask about these pics
1800 Int. Sq. Feet? Also what's ontop of the roof?
That pond, is that the backyard view? If so, just curious if any sort of motorized boat is "allowed" in those canals

The garage is 900 sq. feet, living area 3875 sq. feet, total under roof 6300 sq.feet and the railing on the roof is called a "widows walk" which is strictly decoration. The house is on one of the branches of the lake which are all connected and the lake is 475 acres in the backyard views and the "pond" in the front view is about 3 acres. Two sections of the lake have professional slalom courses as we have several pro skiers and wake boarders who live on the lake. Me, just one supercharged jet ski and a 19' i/o boat for ski, wake boarding and tubing enjoyment.
Then you need to invite me over asap so that I can watch them to learn how to slolom, or my neighbor friend is going to end up killing me. He is an accomplished slalomer, bought a new mastercraft boat and is determined that I get up on one ski. I've skied for years on two and have always been content to just kick one off when I want to slalom for a bit. He even bought a new ski that was supposed to be the magic fix, was convinced that I would get out of the water lickety-split...nope! My forearms, back and root hairs are all stretched out from trying, takes three days to recover each time.
So I'll be right over, OK? Let's see. Mr. Google says I can be there in 44 hours from where I live in Oregon. I want to learn slolom, but, who am I kidding...I just really want to see that driveway!

Visitors are always welcome and I can't slalom either and at 64 not gonna try anymore. I get my enjoyment watching my son and daughter on the wakeboard's do their tricks. They have fun torturing me on while tubing!
I have been to Oregon and your coastline and mountains, especially Crater Lake area are sights I will always cherish!
Man! I need to get back to FL asap 
Your garage alone is bigger than my studio Apt. in downtown SF, yet my rent is probably more than half your mortgage 
Would be cool to have a functional rooftop terrace of sorts and not just hanging rails
No mortgage and no debt as I am happily retired. I lived in Novato and Petaluma while in elementary school and loved the weather! I thank God we moved back to Florida after a few years. No state income tax, lower cost of living, great weather but, humid as hell in the summer!

Living the life! Tubing is alot of fun indeed, specially with the family. My only pet peave with going back to SoFlo is the humidity, that and the lack of fun roads to ride
