I would expect more significant differences moving ahead 8 years, and going up to the next level in the line-up... I really was more curious about people who agonize that they may have bought a 2014 instead of a 2015 with virtually identical specs. It seems that a lot of people ask either "Did I not get this year's bike?" or "Should I wait 6 months for the new model?" Or for used bikes, "I bought what was said to be a 2008, but it is really a 2007, what should I do?"
