Its my understanding that the engine size jumped to 865 in '07. Also the tank is really different on the '08 and they got rid of the scalloped look, going instead for the rounded tank so common on most other motorcycles. The '07 will give you the bigger engine with the last year (unless they realize their terrible mistake and bring it back) that they made the sides of the tank scalloped. I am a newbie here myself, but I like the idea of owning the bigger engine, and really dig the traditional looking tank. I guess you have to weigh out the price and what you want to get out of the bike. I bought an '07 a few weeks ago and LOVE it!
