Had a chance to ride the new C14 when it came out in 2008. Lots of things I like about it and some, like most, that I didn't. Was totally impressed when Kawi listened to the owners ( do you hear me, Honda?) and made some great changes for 2010. Also followed the reviews and was very impressed with what was reported. Have been on ST1100, VFR and for the last 8 years ST1300s. I was a Honda guy, even sold them for the past 8 years. As much as I liked what I saw and heard just couldn't justify making a change. But all that changed last week when a woman in a SUV decided that she had to get across the street I was on without seeing me. I'm fine, had all the gear on, but the 07 ST didn't fair as well. My bride of 27 years said she didn't care what insurance said, she wanted me to get a new bike so tomorrow morning I pick up a new silver C14 in Berkley Springs, W Va., and I am damn excited. 
Will be about a 200 mile ride home so we'll have some time to bond. And next week we leave Delaware for a trip to the AMA races at Mid Ohio. Nice way to start a relationship.
I joined the forum because I was impressed with the quality and quantity of info shared here. You have been a good resource as I made my decision and I look forward to joining in the conversations as I gain more knowledge. Thanks for you help.
Final note, the ST was totalled so alls well that ends well!
