And with the Lambo mirrors, lack of fish scales, factory cruise, and sporty from taillight to head light it is one badazz bike. If I wasn;t trying to hit 200K on my connie I'd probably have one in the garage.
Steve- I highly recommend taking a long ride on a test run. I just had a 2012 and thought I was going to love it. I was so unhappy with it compared to the Concours. If I never owned the Concours first I may have loved it. Good luck! Go for the 200,000 miles.
Hi,
Looked HARD at the FJR and the BMW K1200GT. Settled on the Magnificent C14 and never looked back!
Ay, Carumba! She forgot her helmet- oh, I guess that doesn't matter..
How could you possibly notice something like that when there are other things to notice?
I came off a BMW K1200GT that had cruise control. Used it twice. Didn't care for it and never used it again. Connie doesn't have it and I don't even care.I finally find someone that agrees with me.. eletronic cruise control is way over-rated. a $20 throttle lock is all you need. I really wish i could understand all the people that say they won't consider the c14 without cruise control.. waste of money in my humble opinion..

BTW- again IMHO.. FJR is a toyota, the c14 is a lexus
I installed a BrakeAway and it works great for flat ground, and all other surfaces if you do not mind the speed fluctuations. I use the throttle rockers to help with wrist and tendon issues. I have tried just about all the throttle lock options for the C14 and the BrakeAway is the only one that I could get to hold the throttle without any speed changes.
I actually used the NEP as I recall and it was not for me. The Vista looks like it would have been a better option for a custom install.
