It looks like I may FINALLY be able to buy an EBR in about a month, and there are quite a few new ones still for sale. A warranty is of little value since I'm located ~600 miles from the closest dealer. OTOH, there isn't much of a price difference in a left-over 2014 and a just-built 2017.

I was trying to think of the changes made in the bikes over the production years, and this is what I came up with:

2014- first year for SX and RX
2015- more-durable instrument display; reduced-pull clutch introduced (from factory mid-year; but free dealer retrofit for earlier models)
2016- 2-piece tail section to eliminate cracking; improved instrument display
2017- last year of production; no changes

Does that seem accurate? Any corrections would be appreciated.
