I wasn't a big fan of the new batwing based on the pics.  Seeing it in person, I changed my mind...so waiting to see one! 

Wonder if that one is the CVO based on the painted fairing lower, "custom" wheels and paint.  Or maybe more like the new Road Glide Special.  :nixweiss:

Thx.  Much easier to see photos!  Worth going to see on someday.

The openings on each side of the headlight could possibly be air inlet for the head water cooling radiators. Just a thought, but it is a nice looking bike.

My first thought was the Fairing angle needed to be adjusted up.

 Not one shot of the dash.  I wonder how they oriented the big display?

That would make sense.  From these photos, looks like some kind of lines running along/down the front frame tubing from the faring.  Also, if you look at the side pic, notice that there is some kind of black protrusion at the back of the faring, front of the tank.  Maybe the deflector from the radiator fans in an attempt to keep the hot air from the radiators away from the rider?  It sure looks like the inlet on either side of the headlights.  Something to contemplate as we wait for August.

It's growing on me too, well kinda!

I wonder if it's going to have the black trim on the fairing that gets real sticky and always comes off in certain spots.

I noticed that too. Thought maybe it was the top of the radio. Guess we will see. Still don't see my 09 leaving home.

Do standard, non CVO, touring bikes have oil coolers? 

I didn't think so, but maybe in '14 they do.

If not, this bike has one and may be a CVO RG in disguise.

Unless the new RG looks better in person than in these pics I'd rather stay with a batwing bike. Guess we'll see.
