07 vs 08 differences:

6 gallon tank (with different console/fuel door)
TBW
different seat mounting (tab on tank instead of seat)
50mm throttle body
Brembo brakes
IDS standard
ABS option
Different frame (weldment for engine stab is moved to front instead of under tank)

Also has 2 tripmeters and distance to empty on the odometer...the headset plug on the tank console (ultra) now faces to the rear so it wont scratch the tank..
