What a difference a year makes. OK, so, it may not seem like that much of a difference at first… but here’s Rosa now, vs last year about the same time. Can you find the differences?

You cleaned the floorboard. hehehe Oh, and some other stuff involving all that chrome and whatnot.
Different crash bars that come up higher and have passenger foot pegs, no front rack, different top case with Scooterseatcovers sticker added, no sissy bar, covering on the new top case cushion, cleaner floor mat, no more chrome engine vent (why not?), and a few thousand miles more on the odometer and less tread on the tires (or new tires). Did I miss anything?
LOL!!! I can’t believe you both counted the dirt content of my footmat as a marked difference! hehe
You missed ONE thing, Lisa.
All that haggis-hunting came in really handy!
To answer your question, I put the vented engine cover on in the summer to help the engine cool. I don’t need that yet. And I do have new tires.
Do you like the box better than the bag?
I know you changed out the headlight but it looks like the same headlight in both pics. Is that the one thing I mised?? LOL
Oh, and there’s a loop visible where the seat hook would be in the 07 pic that’s not in the 06 pic. Is that the one thing?
Even *I* missed the loop! nope, that’s not what you missed.
Well, you did, but we both did so it doesn’t count.
Chopped down seat?
Jody - that’s another one Lisa and I both forgot about. Actually, the 06 has the cut-down seat Dwayne and I made; the 07 has the ET ‘low’ seat on it.
Do you guys give up?
Rachelle - yes, I do like the GIVI better than a bag. It doesn’t look as classic, but I need to have a locking container.
I THOUGHT the seats looked different but attributed that to the photograph angles. The way the crash bars are attached is different. The throttle/hand grips look basically the same. You have the clear signal lenses on in each photo. The license plate/mud flap looks different but that can also be the photograph angles. OH I SEE IT NOW — the racks holding the bag/top case are different! There’s a hand rail that is visible in the 07 photo. There, did I get it? If not, I officially give up now.
Lisa, you did it! You might rememember, I replaced the ET rack with one for an LX: http://girlbike.com/2006/06/04/lx-rack-on-et/
