Offer
Well my dealer just made me an offer thats in the ballpark. He has a non ABS and offered it to me for $12,756.00 which includes tax, title , and license. I dont think thats too bad for an all inclusive OTD price. Whatcha think????

My biggest complaint is wind noise. I am experimenting with taller windscreens but, since I have 3 rides I really need to free up some space. I have to wear glasses and that makes full-face helmets a pain to put on so I have to get out of the wind or exacerbate my already damaged hearing. It's a GREAT bike, it just presents a problem given my situation.

Phil,
I understand the glasses/helmet dilemma. Earlier this year, I had enough. I got fitted for contacts and haven't looked back. I'm 6', have a CB +6 windshield coming in today actually. With the cooler weather around chicago, I'll give it a good run for its money.
RE hearing, earplugs!. I started using them 13 years ago when started riding. Anything over 40 mph on a sportbike bothered me, even with the helmet on.
EDIT: Apparently I was mistaken, the shield is indeed +7, not +6. What's an inch  . It arrived a little bit ago, will mount it shortly and test out this afternoon.

Phil I also have hearing probs, too many years in Helicopters, I bought the C14, and also find the shield doesnt work well extended up. Not bad all the way down though, and I think an aftermarket may improve it considerable. I will have to play with it, but so far thats the only issue. May even find a different model of shield and cut to fit. Ive done it before and had success.....TB

Personally, I'd only put the screen up in a hailstorm but I'm used to a pure sport bike.
As for glasses, I'd suggest trying different frames, ones with straighter arms that slide in easily. Glasses and full-face work fine for me.
