Thinking about upgrading

The ZX-14 is not far away now.
The ZX-12 is still on some showroom floors.
Does anyone have an idea what the 14 will be priced at?
Will arrival of the 14 knock the price down on remaining stocks of the 12?
With the 14 being new i don't imagine there would be to much room for wheeling and dealing, with a 12 i might be able to screw down a better deal.
Trading in the 1100 i would be looking for at least $4000 (is that too much?)
Obviously having not ridden either makes the decision even harder, though there are some 12 riders here.
Who has bought new recently and what was the experience like, i've only ever bought second hand and privately?
Decisons.....

It hasn't changed except for the Pirelli Diablos recently fitted.

ride them and compare them with the 11. And look at the fuel consumption if your thinking touring. Some are very thirsty
