Eric, can you tell me the major differences between these two bikes?
I couldn't find anything I would consider "major" but then again I'm an idiot about anything not Suzuki. :) Wondering if they would fall under a like-design rule for a particular year cutoff.
Thx,
Nico

few minor things. The head had a different valve angle on the seats if i recal, carb jetting different, taillights, tailcowling, and minor tweaks in ecu, but same bikes 99%

Is there enough of a performance difference that it would NOT fall under "like bike" rule? :)

That doesn't make sense. Nothing changed in 2002 except I believe 2lbs of weight difference (from the spec sheets I've found).
