Default Curvy?

What do you all mean when you refer to the curvy tank?

Use search function. Curvy = 02 and earlier, pointy = 03 and later. google search images will also help. Just look at the differences between the older and newer bikes, it will become apparent pretty quick.

eh.. there is a small difference mostly in gearing and the fact your's is FI and mine is carbed. Some people will also tell you that their bike is faster/better because of it's color, but they are biased. Where in NC are you? I was in Flat Rock this morning picking apples at Sky Top Orchard. I ride around frequently.
