oh i didnt take notice of your location.  02 was the last naked bike we saw. then in 04 they came out with the faired version here.  so is it an 04 model or an 03?  im not sure what ur saying.  i have a 2000 but it was manufactured in 99..

well basically it has the colours of an 03. . . which makes it an 03 bike, but it was registered in 04, so on paperwork it is an 04 model. i got it nice and cheap. . .was an ex demo bike. . . only 4000 miles on the clock for £1895, which is good money over here as the ones on the net i was looking at were like £2,500 for an 00 with like 13000 miles on the clock!!!

So it was a good deal.
