Looking for someone who might be able to help me identify these forks I'm looking to buy. The seller is listing them as 2008, but I think they are from 07 as the top cap has the center "hex" nut (first picture). I was under the impression this changed in 2008 to the caps pictures in the second image.
If I'm correct, are there any performance differences between the two? Are the 08's "better" or improved in any way?
I can get the set 07 versions for $350 shipped, as I'm doing a SFF swap on my 17 KX450f.
Thanks for the help in advance!

I never know how accurate the parts fiche diagrams are. It shows in 08 they moved to the caps similar to the 09-12 bikes, hence my original concern. A bit hard to tell in the images shown but you can see the hex cap is gone in 08. Maybe certain 08's had them changed during the production?
