Thanks for the input guys

I think I'm kinda sold on a 9. I dont need to go fast, I have a 10 in the shed remember?

An all-rounder is what I'm after. Will probably go out after easter and test ride a few 9's I've seen around. Will do my best for an F model, but I do want a green one, and there's an E model that I quite like.

What are the major differences between the models? I'm an amatuer when it comes to 9's!

not a real lot, it would be better to find a good one of whatever model. and the E's in green look senfarkinsational

Haven't ridden the 12, but found my 9 comfier than the 10 I test rode. Reason I picked it actually was for comfort reasons: sportsbike with livable ergonomics!

I've got the F model (2002), which will be up for sale shortly, if you're looking. It's got a couple of scratches, but is well looked after. It'll be going cheap too.
