I think I've officially over-researched. Too many options. Too many conflicting opinions.

I have nothing against mid year changes, or even year to year. I see them as a good thing. I see them as the manf finds an issue and changes it on the next run. It would help to keep track if there were a version number.

There was no excuse for that forward kick stand. It cost the same to weld them on to the rear, out of the way. All that took was somebody seeing the error and changing 1 spec.

Thanks for the pics Genx
