Wow!! Thanks for all the great responses. I went and looked at the 06 SP800 yesterday. Its basically brand new with 2.4 hours and 24.6miles on it. However, the guy selling it owes about 3K more on it than he's asking and he can't pay the difference right now. He was expecting to work out some deal with me where I take the bike and wait to get clear title until he pays it off. Yeah, right!!! Not a freaking chance. Clear title or no cash. I did explain to him that he might be able to get a signature loan for the difference and he said he'd look into it. I won't be holding my breath.

So, I'm now looking at a new 07' but I'm not ruling out finding a great deal on an 06'.

Somebody mentioned that the standard doesn't have EBS. Are you speaking about the SP500? When visiting the dealer a couple of days ago they said that the SP800 does have EBS but that it does not have the ADC.

No matter what I get I will make sure that it has a winch or I will buy an aftermarket one and install it myself. Money is indeed an issue but I'd rather not buy right now than buy something that doesn't have what I want. I'm not convinced that I need the ADC but I am convinced on the winch. Decisions!

Thanks again for all of your input. I'll be checking back for any other words of wisdom!

it was me that said that the 07' 800 does NOT HAVE EBS in the standard model, only in the delux can you get the ebs and adc.
