[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 797371, member: 3187"] If you go for a Gen II, I'd certainly suggest 2008 or later. I recently [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=132903&view=findpost&p=792185"]changed my '06 for a '10[/URL]. The most obvious difference is the throttle cam modification, making it a much less abrupt initial power on; slow maneuvers and winding on in a corner are so much smoother, I think this happened in '08. (See [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/files/fjrcomparo.pdf"]the comparison matrix[/URL].) Yes, Buster and others, making it as good in this respect as a Gen I. :) [/QUOTE]
