Here's what Yamaha says is different for 2007:

* New, ProTaper aluminum handlebar is light, strong and comfortable.
* New front brake master cylinder and lever gives excellent feel and feedback.
* New, drilled rear brake disc reduces unsprung weight and offers excellent feel and feedback.
* A new internal oil jet aimed at the piston bottom keeps things cool and well lubricated.
* An improved clutch offers consistent operation and big-time strength.

The oil jet is probably the biggest deal out of those things--both for what it does and for the difficulty in adding it to an 06 (but it can be done--have to split the cases).

If it's a couple hundred difference I'd get the 07. If it's $1000 or more I'd get the 06. I'd like to have the oil jet, but YFZs have been tearing it up for years without it....

Just $0.02
