I don't believe they have released all the info yet. I mean, not one new model in any of the lines? that's kinda hard to believe.

I'm not complaining,just commenting. But I think the radiator vent is going to prevent riders from using highway pegs. My buddy says he can't use the highway pegs on his Gold Wing because the heat of the radiator is to much except in the cold winter. Saying that, I can't see how else they could have vented it.

Ya it looks like the lowers no longer have vents that open and the radiator vents right where your feet and legs are placed on highway pegs. I was a little jeleous till I figured that part out lol. Glad I picked up my 13 ultra limited in may. I don't dislike the new bikes but see positives and negatives with each. Not sure I like the linked brakes as I live on a dirt road. I do like the new info set up. The liquid cooling added no hp and torque! 3lbs of torque is not anything you would notice. Time to add wards cooling fans and ride

they do open........

New Fairing Lowers
There’s no such thing as a minor irritation when you’re going to be experiencing it for tens of thousands of miles. The little things make a difference. Like the way the wind comes around your fairing lowers. We’ve got the new fairing lowers dialed in just right, thanks to more wind tunnel and real world riding tests than we’ve ever done before. And the vents open with one touch when the going gets hot. You’ll appreciate them more with each passing mile.
