I puchased a '00 with 3500mi on it last February. It now has nearly 12,000 commuting every day without a lick of problems.

only problem was the water pump oil seal, common on these. Never a problem with the clutch. 13,000 miles. I did install heli bars and a corbin. I wish I did the seat sooner!

If you get a 2000 get the 2000.5 has a few more goodies. I got 12000 miles and the starter clutch went bad cost 1200.00 and a few months in the shop which Im not thrilled about.

Well since Gidimille is from the UK, the bike he is asking about actually IS what some people here in the US consider a 2000.5 model.
