which to buy ?
But the new 04.5 500 all the new improvements and about 100 lbs lighter. Rode both and went with the 500. the twin sounds cool and runs well but I just didn't like the idea of almost 700 lbs. Plus I think if you search these forums you will here about some of the troubles with the 02 700's. ultimately it is your choice, you need to buy the best machine for your needs. just my .02 worth.

The 700's the more capable machine, no doubt. What kind of condition is it in? how many miles? is it from a dealer who will back up the sale?
The 02's had some issue's like coolant leaks, most likely those have been addressed on this 700 if it was maintained well. At least you won't need to buy new tires if you buy the 700, I wounldn't want the turf tire's on the 04.5 500. Save another $500 or soo and buy a new 600 - you'll get almost the same performance as the 700(although tire's are still a problem).
