There is a topic posted in "Beneath the Bonnet" titled "2004 rear foglight" (or something like that) that contains a link to the changes for 2004. (Sorry, I don't know how to post a link...) One of the changes is a 3-spoke sport multifunction steering wheel...if you haven't seen it yet, go look, it is SWEET!!! I would love for my MC to get that wheel, but I think it says it would be incorporated in December builds. Maybe I'll get lucky !!!

I Agree
the 3 spoke is ugly and looks like a VW's

I third that.
And second, the VW lookalike.

But I do like the new 2-spoke perforated steering wheel w/ the thumb grips. Now THAT'S slick!

I LOVE the two spoke with the perf leather steering wheel!!! It fits my hands perfectly and I'm still stoked by the multi-functionality of it! What a feature!!!!

I agree, the two spoke leather perf wheel is the best yet. Too bad my MCS didn't come with it.
I got cheated out! Bummer.
