Any rumored changes for 14?

I paid a pubick hair over $12,000 for my new bike with a three year warranty that I'll never use BECAUSE it is NOT a BMW

I want reverse, is that too much to ask for big ole heavy bikes like this? How hard would this be to do, it runs off the dang starter motor........GOLDWING.

Let it out Jim. Not good to keep it all inside.

Yeah, really... tell us how you REALLY feel!

Quite!

Few people on the Forum can claim shorter legs than I, meaning I have probably the least amount of control and leverage when trying to "force" the bike around manually.  But even I have never been stuck in a situation I needed reverse on the C14.... yet.

However, it is not hard to imagine a situation where I would be quite stuck without it.   Make no mistake- if I were parked pointing downhill and with no way to go forward, I would probably be very screwed.  I had a hard enough time with the ZRX in such a situation, but it becomes impossible on the C14 which is much heavier and larger (and taller).

Currently, the key is planning ahead so as not to be put in such a situation.

There is always the option to just get off, and push it the manual way standing beside the bike......

True and yet not necessarily.... depends on the incline.  Some of us are stronger than others.  Besides, pushing a bike backwards (presumably from the front) is a lot more difficult than pushing it forward (presumably from behind the bars).  Admittedly, I don't have much experience with either.  I guess it could be done from the side (one hand on bars, one hand on rear grab).
