In 2008 I sold my bike and quit riding. I still followed the sport regularly, but didn't go to any races. After spending the weekend in Millville at the pro and amateur races I've got the bug again! I've been searching Craigslist to see what's out there and these two years have caught my eye.. I was just wondering if I could get some of your opinions on the two. I know 09 was the first year they were EFI, did anybody have any issues with it? The 09 is $3000 and the 12 is $4600, the price isn't really an issue, but my line of thinking is go for the 09 and use the left over money to do a rebuild so I know I won't run into any issues with the motor and maybe put a new exhaust on it. Both bikes are stock. The 2012 claims the suspension is stock, so I'm thinking he took his modified suspension off. Does anybody have any input? Also, any other bike suggestions are welcome as well!
Go with the 2012.
