Cam chain tensioners have been known to wear out early. See if they ahve changed to gear drive cams or had them checked.

In 03 they had an anniversary model that was very popular. See what options it has. Basically from ~2000 to 2006 they are VERY similar bikes. I bought mine a few months back and was looking for an 2001 to 2004 because they are basically the same bike and I had a budget. Ended up with the 06 because I got a great deal on it. Would have been just as happy with an 03.
