I think with what you're intending, the GT would've been a better version? Removable bags and no floorboards.

I'm good with the B. I really prefer the 2" lower seat height than the GT has. The floorboards look to be easily removable; from what I can tell I'll need the driving lights brackets from the GT or mod the brackets from the B, or fab some of my own if I want to re-mount the driving lights. Not a tall order for me with any of the options.
Just learned today the bike was picked up by the transporter. 1st-world problem is getting it into my garage as we had a snowstorm last week that left 6" of "snowcrete" (snow/sleet). Temps have been below freezing since and my place gets little sun in the wintertime.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
