Two months ago i bought my brand new Classic as well @Alligator ...

Why you are not happy ? I am not into the design of the new headlight as well...

I haven't seen one in person yet but the one "we" are wearing right now i much more nicer looking considering the overall design of the bike.

Maybe up close and personal i will change my mind, from the photos ... ? Not interested.

The signal lights ? A big no for me. The current led i am wearing are simple, edgy and minimalistic. I like them.

My only concern is that if they are making any changes in the engine, horsepower wise.

Not that i am lacking power but... that's something major if the go that way.

Any information about that anyone?

e.f.

Hey @Alligator,

i understand what you mean now but i find it impossible just like that to restrict you in that way... especially with such a up to date and new motorcycle.

I wouldn't be so concerned if i was in your position i think... Anyway.

Sorry for the "irrelevant" post guys.

@Nico9T , yes i totally agree with every word you said about regulation, restrictions etc.

That was my point so show our friend @Alligator that for the time being and for many of the next years he has nothing to afraid as i already assumed.

I had no idea that in order to keep with the regulations the engine seems a little more "toned down" to the previous models.

Believe me my friend, for me, a person who was riding for 15 years a K 1200 R with 163 hp before going to an R Nine T never cared for such a significant difference in power
otherwise i would have chosen and stayed with a more close to the K series bike.

But on the same series of bikes deciding out of the blue adding more power i would have found it a little disrespectful for the people who have bought it already.

The aesthetically additions ? Lights etc... always welcome, always good to have the ability to chose from various things. If they are retrofitting which i believe they will...
