Long time lurker ( since 1999 ). Got my new 08 two weeks ago, and the nice thing was that I rode my 05 up 117 miles and came back on the 08.
I had the notion that the new bike was the same as the old bike, boy was I wrong.
Im still trying to figure out the dash panel Fuel reset, clock adjust, ect. once I got home, I had them side by side to count the diffrences, and I thing Im up to twenty at last count. the major things would be
1. More power!
2. the tail
3. the dash
the list goes on. the minors would be
1.I actually feel when the timing retarding comes in and out.
2.Shifts better
3. Slipper clutch takes getting used to.
3. Grips are more comfortable without the ridge of rubber between bar end and throttle grip.
