top speed wise it did not seem hugly differant i only got it up to 130 but its a lot quicker getting there, i also found that i was doing 60ish in a 40 zone with out relising, it had a remus can on it, but it was a bit quite for my liking.
the newer one was more comfortable, which surprised me, seemed a lot smaller & lighter. i was a lot more conifedent on roundabouts and bends.:pig:

Have you still got the smaller front wheel on your bike?
I always find it difficult riding high spec bikes for comparison, their setup can change everything. I have to admit they're mighty fine looking bikes :)

sadly the first one is too expensive, and the 2nd link does not work.

i have been looking for a few weeks now, and not realy found "the one" maybe im being too fussy?

I'd go for it if I was you dude, can't really tell for sure from the pics but it looks as in a good condition as any bike that age. Decent price too.

I reckon the black on yellow looks better than the yellow on black

DO IT, you know you want to ;)

the more i look at it, im getting to like it, i would still prefere the 02 yellow on black, theres somthing about the black head fairing on the 03 black on yellow that does not look right?
