GEN1 or GEN 2 ENLIGHTEN ME PLEASE

[slappy]

I had my gen1 for 6 years before getting a gen2 in June this year. I luckily got a good 40 mile test ride on the gen2 because I was buying it of a neighbours friend. I would recommend a decent test ride before buying a gen2 because of what all the posters before me have said., the two bikes are chalk and cheese. If I could afford it I would have one of each, gen1 for touring and two up and gen2 for fun.
