RE: Some observations on the 2017 EX ..some pics added
I saw the 2017 CB today at the Powersports dealer in Metuchen, NJ. Looks sweet! I will say that compared to my beloved 2014 DLX, I'm not a big fan of the shape of the gas tank. I also prefer the darker red of my bike.

The sales guy seemed pretty savvy and noted many of the differences on the new bike. When I am next on my bike while at the dealer he offered to wheel the '17 out into the parking lot so we could take some photos of the 2 bikes side by side.

Interested to hear impressions of others who have seen it, or better yet, purchased one.

Just spotted Ferret's photos of the 2 bikes side by side. Well done!

Hello Teamwalker I just saw that same EX at FMS just a few days after purchasing my DLX (#132) I was hoping to have exclusive rights to the only DLX in Fredericksburg but it appears I have to share? So which CB do you like more the Standard or your DLX?

I saw the 2017 EX today. Wow, to me it was stunningly eye-popping in person. I thought I would like the gas tank but after seeing it in person I love the gas tank. It's just a whole 'nuther thing goin' on than the previous tank.
