I'm going to assume you went with the Touring. Congratulations! Is this not a first on this site?

Yes - the turn signals cancel automatically...

Supplanting the cost of adjustable clutch and brake levers with a minimal cost for a self canceling turn signal...what a concept. Have you any pictures, of you and your bike, posted yet? My screen saver needs updating BTW, my screen saver has most all forum members, or their bike in the case of the shy ones, included.

I saw one at my dealer on Saturday. Also black with the TORs. It looks like each pipe has a small cat instead of the big box..

I don't believe they are TORs. I do believe they are they have the same muffs as the Standard with the "slash" cut tail ends. A tail end I hope to acquire the PN for.
There have been several recommendation for cruise control system, including scavenging systems from Cadillacs or Yugos. I suggest a cheap 1st alternative and that is the CrampBuster (CB). If for no reason than safety, leaving hands off the bars for any real length of time is not IMO safe on a bike; even if changing channels on your radio or flippin CDs is your objective. Do you really need your hands to talk? What are you doing with your right hand otherwise scratchin yer knee? A pair of CBs is most relaxing. That's my opinion and yer welcome to it

The could adjust automatically. If they didn't, the bikes would shortly become unusable.
 
For Steve - Alafia, the tank holds almost 5.9 gallons not 5. Someone a week or so ago found out that the "4.9: gallons refers to "imperial" gallons not US gallons.
