Took the 08 over to a mate of mines the other day- he has an 07 model and put them together. Not much difference but the thing that was really noticable (apart from the tank shape & badge) was the seat, it's a lot more comfy on the 08 model ,seems to be more dished out at the bottom, it makes the position a lot more sit in & not sit on.
I thought that when I first picked up the bike from the dealers. It wasn't until we sat on both seats side by side that we both agreed that the new seat is more comfortable
In the end it doesn't matter if you got the first or current model they still are a supurb ride, and a credit to Triumph.
