New to bikes, New to Yamaha and hopefully Fazer. Advice sought

[ddtwelve]

im a nearly newbie 3 weeks of owning my first fazer a 05 plate  to me age is everything as the older bike being stored and not used may have hidden rust etc,
with it being your 'first'  bike youll proberly not notice the difference between the two in engine torque etc as youll proberly bricking it for the first couple of months till you get use to it
i prefer the newer one due to exhaust pipe routing out under the seat makes a more neater bike to me
