2006 at that price. But it depends if you want a 6 speed or not.

Based on the thread I'd go with the 06 and use the extra cash to buy shiny things for it. Would be sweet to see pics of each one though.

Let me see if I can do this. Both are stock, not the best pics of the 2006

They both look showroom in the pics. 10K miles is not that many. But, I'd still get the 2006 for my money. Pay your insurance and get some pipes with the leftover.

I would still go with the 07'

with the 96 and the 6 speed and tensioners. Have you tried to haggle with that the pricing any? On either bike

I remember the days with a stock black deluxe...what a difference a bunch of bolt ons will do...

Hell screw them both and get a 2010. They are only $16xxx.xx with 3 miles and a 2 yrs. warrenty that they seldom do honor. Not to mention you may get a great gift like what i got in the mail after my 1 yrs. of buying my bike...A tin can full of chocalate chip cookies which i threw away just as fast as they hit my mailbox. LOL
