Title: Had it a week now and love it!
Post by: slolifepilot on May 09, 2016, 12:49:47 PM: My wife and I purchased a blue 2013 a week ago. It has the risers, canyon cages, and aftermarket windscreen. I purchased the luggage rack from Phil and installed the back rest to the top case for my wife. We went on a ride this weekend and loved it! We rode on my BMW 1100RT while we were dating over 10 years ago. We sold the BMW and went without until now. We are really looking forward to doing a lot more riding. Right away I liked the C14 better than my BMW.

This forum has already provided a ton of information

Post by: Rhino on May 09, 2016, 03:25:45 PM: Welcome slolifepilot! I flew an Air Knocker 7AC for years. Cruise speed about 80mph. Is that the kind of slow life pilot you are talking about?

Post by: jimmymac on May 09, 2016, 07:55:37 PM: I've owned mine for over 6 years, and love it more all the time. It's so comfy and predictable. I just throw it around like a dirt bike, sliding it around like it's nothing. Such a blast to ride. 8)

Post by: slolifepilot on May 13, 2016, 07:58:43 AM: Charlie747, that is a beautiful picture! I wasn't too sure about the blue at first, my wife and I wanted the black, but when we saw it in person we loved it. I was a little nervous that the large windscreen and canyon cage were too big but they fit the bike nicely.
