New, nearly new or 2016?

[jimbo]

I am about to place the order. TE with gear assist and luggage.
The choices:
- new 2015
- new 2016 +£200 more than the 2015 and 300 mile round trip to collect (and 1st service - I guess)
- demo 2014 - under 1k miles - £2400 less that the 2015 and I don't get the integrated Nav/GPS which comes with the

the specs other that mentioned are the same (I think)

Clearly my decision, but any thoughts? 2016 changes appear to be flashing brakes lights

Hi Jimbo
2016 gs te has cornering abs and the flashing brake lights as standard and free nav 5 until Dec 15.

the 2015 and 2016 come with the free nav.
Is "cornering abs" worth having?

 

[Simples!]

Depends if you think one day you might overcook a corner and grab a handful? It's like all the fancy smancy gizmos, we don't need them till we need them.
Personally I've gone for it. Time will tell if it was a good choice!

But then thinking about it I've also opted for the now you don't see me triple black so if it's logic you're after...
Whatever you decide - enjoy

The 15 onwards bikes are sorted (heated grips work ) but for £200 more, I'd go for the 2016 model.

What do ya mean . There's nothing wrong with the heated grips on the pre-15 bikes

Yes - no problems with my 2000 1150s heated grips

The GPS? - Yes

but the 2.9% interest is only to the end of Sept

And neither on 2nd hand bikes

Nav V is definitely worth having especially if it's free

When did the free Nav 5 offer start? I've recently taken delivery of a new GSA TE with no nav....!!
