Raux,
You are SO right my friend! I just received my CW tail and it's a POS.
I HATE the new location of the key! Ordering an RG today. Live and learn.
Just my 2 cents but the key location is much better on the CW. You can get straight to it from the back of the bike between the cans. I found it easy to burn myself on the cans with the stock location.
