The silver engine and wheels really are nice.

Congrats, by the way! Read this thread five times now - enjoyed watching you enjoy it!

Congrats, Ferret! You look like quite the proud papa in that 1st pic.

Thanks for all the pics of your day. I really like the new instrument panel. It looks quite readable in sunlight. All I can see on my '13 on a sunny day is a reflection of my helmet.

In order to make my self feel better about not having a new '14 I ordered about $1200 worth of farkles instead. Installed the new H&B rack yesterday and Takashi will be sending me a big box in a couple of weeks.

Between your pics and ride4now's, it looks like the extra capacity in the tank came from pushing out the knee dents significantly. Is it taller as well?

Flynrider... the tank seems bigger all over...width and height particularly in the back half in front of the seat. it is quite a large tank. Hard to believe capacity was only increase 1/2 gallon

I thought the fuel increase is actually .7 of a gallon, the 13 was 3.9 the dlx is supposed to be 4.6, I know some of the publications were printing .5, what is the actual truth?:huh:

yea who knows? conflicting reports. I filled up yesterday but tank was not full when I picked it up. It certainly looks like it would hold 4.6 and it would be good if it did.
