From a 2011 model to 2016 new. Local dealer has one coming in, is there any major changes, I'm guessing not.
XJ600, VFR800, CBR1100, Varadero1000, CBR1100, STX1300, GTR1400 ?

The new one will be much cleaner than yours, especially in all those awkward, hard to clean places. :yes:

The 15/16 has a different screen and saddle and I believe the linked brakes and TCS have been tweaked.

New brake balance
Black trim bars and grab rail
Modified saddle
Lower first gear
Modified screen
Chrome bezel trim to speedo & tacho
Optional topbox changed
Option of mellow pipe

So it burns rubber off the lights real good, while you sit back in luxury of comfort plus saddle enjoying the sound track of your launch safe in the knowledge that the new topbox will stop yer falling off the back  :mfr_lol:

The big question yer have to ask yer self is "which colour?"  :punk:

But would it not be better to buy a k16.  Now that is a real bike combines top quality with top performance. So much better than a GTR and with an extra 2 cylinders. No brainier really.

Excuse me while I choke on the hypocrisy ........... :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:

K16 = Tourer

GTR = Fun  :punk: Plus as you keep telling me........never go to a BM owners meet, you'll be bored to death  :eek:

Charlie I can assure you I've had plenty of fun on my K16 and you know PRD is talking perfect sense.  :popcorn:
