Keyless isn't really an issue, had it on the 2 Harley's I had and the Honda we drive also is keyless. Get with the times folk's, things are going that way so we best accept it. Like the rest of the keys I have clipping the FOB and HOG refer to it isn't a big issue. I for one can't see anything wrong with it although the central locking has me flustered at times, took a while to figure out why I couldn't open the fuel cap.
I put the latter down to being a grey hired 60 plus in years rider.. Enjoy whatever you decide on, great bikes aren't they..
The real difference between 14 and 15 model?
Re: The real difference between 14 and 15 model?
(1) Keyless ignition.
(2) Blue color available.
(3) I think it shifts into and out of first gear without the clutch more smoothly than it did on my ex-14.

Whatever you do don't let the battery go flat with the steering lock on. If you do you'll wish you had a key.Wierpig wrote: The keyless ign is fantastic.much less hassle than a key.

Assuming you locked the bike near to where you can plug it in. Wierpig wrote: Charge battery.start bike.same as keyed bike?
