I do not expect anything special this year.
Like you said, def a color change, and FOR SURE a price bump.
I would think if they where gonna bump compression they would have done it last year like on the 103.
Just my thoughts.
When I see them in the show rooms, they look nice.
I like the new gps, saddle bag latches and more passenger room for sure.
Those are the things that I need.
Do not really care about the paint as I only keep till the factory warranty runs out then turn them in.
Wouldn't trust one a single hour past warranty ever again!!! Water cooled exhaust valve or not.
I will find out next May for sure. I am def confident that there will be plenty in the show rooms for me to look at,
2014 and 2015 models.
