how much difference between 08,09,10 models

Hey guys,
how much difference between the different years? and should that sway my choice of what year to buy??

None for the most part.

- Color
- Some parts may be newer versions of parts that essentially do the same thing but may have had quality corrections in new manufacture, etc.
- The "silver/Grey" pieces like the handle bar center console, and the foot guards are cast and have a "grain" to them. The 08's were a smooth finish/texture.

08 and 09 did not come in blue, but I don't think you can get a 10 in yellow now.

Of course the 10 will have some updated parts over the 09, while the 09 had some over the 08. If you run into any problems, they will most likely replace with the updated parts anyway.

The '10s have airdams on the A-arm covers to direct more air into the engine area - I may invest in a set of those, if they will retro onto the older RS..

Dealer said the 10's come with the canister mods installed..
