Got to be the Gen 1 
.
I was at a dealer looking at an MT 09 and he wanted me to PX my bike against it . He showed me a couple of Gen 2's which he has had sat around for 18+ months (both nice clean bikes) with zero interest. He said "I could sell clean Gen 1's all day long"[size=78%].[/size]
I don't understand it myself, but the buying public are very fickle, as both are very nice bikes for everyday use.
I wont be selling my Gen 1 its a keeper, well not until it is worth more than £10K.
I had kawasaki triples in the late 70's,500 & 750, and they are north of £10k for a clean original one now. I also had RD and LC yams and they seem to be £4-5 K plus :eek
