Looking at a GSA that was registered in September 2014 but built (according to Nutty's VIN Decoder thread) on 22/07/2014

Is this going to be a 2014 or 2015my bike?

My thoughts are anything built before August (when the factory closes for annual holidays) 2014 will be a 2014 bike and anything built after their return from holiday will be a 2015 :nenau

Anyone got a definitive answer?
 
Mine is the same build date and is classed as a 2014 model, 2015 models came with the annual price hike
If it has alloy heel protectors its a 2014, plastic a 2015 .....only difference as far as I am aware

That'll be a 2014 bike, as 2015's started being made towards the end of August.

Because the 2014's are shite, and the heated grips don't work.:aidan
