Smoother style of the bags, tour pack, and batwing all seem to flow nicely.  I love that they made so many upgrades from latches to a home run on the infotainment screen.  Passenger comfort, linked braking, bluetooth, USB, better front forks (long time waiting), lighting, etc. etc.  So many upgrades in one year!

Great Job Moco!

Looks as if there are a lot of changes this year.  Nice to see.

I like the look however am reserved on the Fairing and saddle bag changes until I see one in person.
Not quite sure on the letter box in the fairing, however with a chrome grill it may look a lot better. (More accessories  )
Same goes for the lower vents.
Other than that pat on the back for the MOCO.
It will be interesting to see how the cooling system pans out for the first year.

The new 14s should be hitting dealer showroom floors pretty soon I would think.

15 new 2014s unloaded this morning at HD of Charlotte.
No CVO's, but the Ultra Limited is very nice.
Saddlebags have a lever to open them.
Fairing vent has a cool operation to open and close them.
Water cooled heads with fans and tank.
Single latch to open tour pack.
FINAlLY put decent hinges on tour pack.
Hand controls are very different.
Bunch of changes.

I for one think the MoCo started listening to the rider's.     Reading about the changes sounds GREAT.., can't wait to see them in person!  What I don't see is any "jaw dropping" colors that I have seen in the past.

This is the area, I was a little disappointed about.  I like the scheme of the paint, though a little conservative, but the colors could have been more creative.  The last couple of editions of the CVO Ultra they have improved the paint on the tour pack, incorporating the full design.

SBB, I agree, I feel very good about the appearance and function of the hinges if as advertised.

Looking at the HD video the saddlebags do not look as "rounded" as in some of the early pics.  What's your take since you've seen em?

Got a pic of the inner fairing?

Is that this Wednesday and is it at Smoki'n ??

I don't believe the heads are "water-cooled". They are liquid-cooled. I'm curious what the liquid is. Has anyone read any reports on the coolant? Is it oil? How are they pumping the "liquid" to the lower fairing radiators? Its hard to find any technical information on the new "Liquid-cooled Twin-Cam" engines. Its being offered in both the 103 and the 110.

It looks like they are charging about $1100 for the liquid-cooled upgrade on the 103 engine when you compare the costs of the Standard Ultra and the Limited Ultra.

Standard coolant, not oil.

Somewhere in the area of "90"?

It looks like they are ducting the heat from the lower fairing radiators under the bike and out through large ports on the back of the bike on each side between the fender and the new saddlebags.
