Well I don't know BUT I stopped by a dealership yesterday to pick up some stuff and they sell this bike and had one sitting there. I liked it and as I've already posted elsewhere and will say again....IF I didn't have my R1 I think that's the bike I would get.

I've owned 2 Hondas...3 Kawasakis and 3 Yamahas...NEVER a Suzuki but I'd give this one a try.

08's have more power.

Just called the local dyno shop and the guy said the 07's are putting down 130 with a slip-on.
