2000 or 2005 Vmax?

[98VMax71]

Hello all, I sold my 98' and now have the opportunity to get either a 2000 or a 2005 (20th anniversary). Both have less than 20k miles. Any thoughts?

partial to 05's is it badged ?

Ge the one looks best cared-for & lowest miles. Priority for the former.

05 for sure!

if in same condition, then 2005

Against what seems to be popular opinion i am partial to the 2000. I really dont care for the flat black engines. Having a badged anniversary edition would be cool and the black wheels look good but side by side I stick with the 2000 for looks then a 97. In the end, price, mechanical and overall condition would be my deciding factors.

Performance and function are no different. The 05 arguable may have more value. But as mentioned earlier you may just want to look over the bike and see if one stands out as being better maintained.

Personally I would switch out the wheels to a nicer set for radials to be fitting ... where's this 05 at ?? : )

Hey Captain Kyle, how much $ does a set go for these days, just curious but they are on my wish list. And shipping must be costly too.

I usually get $ 200 for a set of black wheels plus shipping and PayPal fees.
