Default RE: frame question

right you are, seats are def. different as I found out. If you get the parts manual for the 07's you can see the part #'s of every part, inc. bolts on the bike. The last part of the # will be the year it was made for. For example, under belts, chains, sprockets, No 9 says rear belt, 133 t 1 in. wide is part # 40058-07, the 07 designates that it is a new part made for this year, in the 08 parts manual its the same part #. so they are still using that part for 08.
