Game over now boys..move along please
02 rsvr the dogs best model made but then i am biased
I think everyone needs to ride the 2000.5 model or earlier, anything newer has lost the Vtwin feel, I prefere the grunt these models have, the newer versions ie 2001 to current are a bit like in-line fours, you wind the throttle open and you get a seemless drive as the motor spins up, with the older models you it feels like you been kicked up the arse when you wind it on.
I also think the older ones are actually faster, having read alot of posts on acceleration and top speed the new models seem to struggle about 165 were the old models can go around 170+
The other side of the coin is that the older models are cheaper so you can buy spend cash on riding it.
Just my opinion
