ditto. You can now pick up decent gen2 for under £5k. They were 10k new. There a lot of mods to improve power delivery , though its always going to be a revvy sportbike engine.If you want an easy to ride tourer with occasional blasting go gen1, if you want the opposite go gen2.
only problem with gen1 is finding a decent low miler anymore as they have been out of production almost 9 yrs ! Saying that my 42k miler is as good now as it has ever been. The engines seem bulletproof if looked after.
Have to say in my 14th year of owning these bikes, if I had a quid for every time this topic has come up...... :lol
