Let me offer my PURE UNBIASED OPINION, but the C14 is by far the best ride, most fun everyday bike I've owned. No buzzing, no final drive issues, no regrets! I took mine from St. Louis to Alaska and back, and only changed my brake pads! I was too cheap to do it before I left! Rode all day about 10 hours a day in the saddle. I DO recommend Spencer's distance seat mod. Best 150 bucks I ever spent!
