Hi guys! Can anyone confirm whether this is actually the 2018 model? (LINK) My friend says its not but the sales representative claims that it is. I've been burned before and I want to take all precautions before going any further with this dealer.
Thanks and happy riding!

Its the RR version, but the picture is backwards, the chain is on the left side and the 'a' is backwards in the picture. This is a picture the right way round and this is the factory version which has the red flash on the rear upper fairing, the 2017 looks the same but has a green flash like this.
 
Ask for the VIN. The 10th character is the year.I owned a 2013 (D) and a 2018 (J) as follows.

[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]2013: ZD4TYC009DS000000[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]2018: ZD4KGUA06JS000000[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]2013: D[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]2014: E[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]2015: F[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]2016: G[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]2017: H[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]2018: J
Note: The letter I is not a valid VIN character.
