...I actually like the bigger tank from 07 on (I think I might be the only one)because it holds more fuel and there are no ugly seams at the bottom to try and cover up. Plus have you all sat on a newer BA? I sat on a 2014 two tone red one at my dealer and was amazed by the comfort. The bars are different and come back to you and the seat is tons more comfortable and plus floor boards are standard. It was way more comfortable than my 02. I hate to say it but I think he fact that Bonnevilles are being assembled in Thailand has hurt sales some in America. I would not hesitate to get a new America though. I especially like the new fat front tire. 
Yes you might be unanimous with yourself with your new tank amore! Gotta agree that a larger tank would be nice on long trips. Hate having to fill up every 150 miles, or 170 if I'm not out West.
Fat front tires look good, but make the bike wallow like a pig. I finally wore out Vera's front 130 Kenda. She is much more lithe now. And with her new chain kit, (February 9, 2015) she handles like a dream even though that chain kit has 8,000 miles on it now.
A little tongue in cheek, but the new tanks at least allow one to change out the relays without removing the tank! 
Give us back the tank indents and the spokes!
