my 2005 or my 2008

Post by alfo »

I can buy for the same price a 05 model year with 35.000km ora 08 model year with 62.000km. Both with ABS and ESA: Which one do you suggest? Thanks

2008, as this will not have the problematic servo brake system

Keep hunting and get yourself a Camhead or Wethead.

For what I know, 2005 to 2009 are much the same.
Whatever you buy, enjoy!!

I think that avoiding the servo on the 2005 is a must. Mine is a 2007 and doesn't have it.
