It really comes down to wether U want a Brand New Virgin that U can braek in how U see fit.

Get a one that U are not quit sure about but U saved heaps so U can put it to how your vision is & just remake her.

If U just like the NT for what it is and want to ride I would go with the new one.
If U think gee if that was like this and I like that other front end etc Go with the 01.

Not only will the 01 have a carb but they actually use normal socket head bolts on most things so easier to work on your self.

I personally like new bikes. Had a few and I think nothing else would do.

Take the 08 and th 01 for ride and see the difference. Maybe Ya bum can decide for U while Ya heads still crunching figures.

Just a thought.
Enjoy which ever U choose.
