Not usually a big fan of white motorcycles, but that 14R with the black Muzzy's is HOT ! or should I say COOL !

Actually, most of the colors are awesome on the 14, still waiting to see the red in person ....

I REALLY like yer White Stallion Okie...yup...we need more pics...pls;)Was actually my FIRST color choice...they didn't have any with ABS at that time=(


I think that white really creates a 'pilot' attitude...stark...contrasty...clean.Like a fighter jet or something...very cool

Grn14, you have to go in and set the rev limiter warning (or shift light). Its a yellow light near the top right of the cluster. It has a couple of brightness settings, blink rates (iirc), and 2 rpm settings.

You can set a lower rpm for launching at a stoplight or the strip, IE 3500. It will come on at that rpm with the clutch in to know where you plan to launch the bike. And the 2nd light is set up top near the redline so it flashes as a warning to know when to shift. In the daytime, it could be a bit brighter, but its still pretty noticeable.

the settings are in the menu with the clock, language, etc.

Gr14 there is a yellow programmable shift light . Its the top yellow light on the left side of the display. Yours is probably turned off. It can be set to off, flash, and sold. And can be set at any rpm to activate it.

I like when my rear slides(not slip) a little around fast corners. That's the only thing I actually liked about the stock tires, they would give me a nice slice through the curves.

Cold weather casualty. Let's heat those tires up before we hooligan and remember the asphalt is cold
