Default Find out whether it is 2014 or 2015?

Is there a way to find out if a bike is 2014 or 2015? I want to make sure I am definitely getting the 2015 I've been promised and paying for.

The VIN will tell you. The seller would also be committing Fraud if they represent the sale as a 2015 model year when it is actually a 2014.
If you are that concerned about a Dealer cheating you the find another

As SOCALHD said,you can check the VIN. I have a 2015, and the letter designation "F" in my VIN conveys my bike being a 2015.

Here is a sample VIN and you can see here that position 7 is an "F" which is the designation for 2015. Not sure what the letter would be if it were a 2014 though.

If you distrust the dealer that much, why would you even consider doing business with them?

If you don't trust the seller, why in the world would do business with them?
