[QUOTE="Ceebass68, post: 1403651, member: 89441"] Thanks guys! I appreciate the input. I seem to always use resell value as a part of my evaluation when I buy a bike. May not sell it but, then again, I may if I don't like the ride or, get caught in a financial crunch. More info for perspective: I already bought the 03. Paid $1,200 for it. Put $200 worth of new tires on it so far and changed the fluids. Other than the blemishes I mentioned, it seems to be in awesome shape. When I saw the 04 come up for sale (at $2,200), in a little better cosmetic shape, it got me thinking... Maybe I could "flip" the 03 once fixed up, make a few dollars, pick up the 04 and have about the same amount of $ invested...making any sense? ADVANTAGES to 04 as I see it - better brakes, never been down, better seat and has a top box. Like that it also has the "glove" box in dash. DISADVANTAGES to 04 - more expensive, ALOT more miles, silver rims [/QUOTE]
