    What is different between an 08 and an 09

    As the thread title reads....what are the differnces(if any) between an 08 and an 09 700xx.

    My dealer has several 08's left and because he does he did not order or get any 09's.

    Obviously I don't want to miss out if something on the 09 is inherently better.

    No difference, other than them offering it in all black.

    Thanks man. I try to adhere to the "Hondas are red" mantra.

    That being said....I have an all white Foreman....but it was a family decision and luck of the draw.

    I have 4 daughters and a wife and only one daughter sided with me. I told the dealer first choice red ....second choice white and I still did not know till we picked it up.

    If i get a 700xx...it WILL be red.

    lol - mine's black and gray, but I just scooped up some red shocks so it'll have a little bit of red on it.

    I bought mine when they 1st came out and the dealer had black so...that was what I got.

    The '08's are like a 1/4" longer than the '09's. I just saw Honda has raised the price to $8500!! I guess I stole mine for $5383

    Post a picture of her. I'd like to see a 700XX dressed up.
