Default 05 vs 05 repsol

I'm looking for a used bike, not sure if I want a 2006 or 2005 RR or a 2005 Repsol, I may go back to my R1.

Other than the plastics and price, is there any other difference between the 2005 1000 RRand 05 Repsol?

I don't care much about looks, I want performance, but of course I always like the Repsol look...

Thanks

the repsol is a paint scheme only no difference in performance

go with the 06-07 for a nice improvement over the 04-05 (07 even comes in repsol)

or wait a few months for the 08 which is supposed to be a hell of a nice improvement

All right, I'll let the secret out...my Repsol gets 3.2 horsepower per sticker more than the regular RR. [sm=drooldude.gif]

Wait for the 08. If its nothing special then go with an 06 or 07.

Really? I only get 3.1 horsepower per sticker on my Repsol...maybe I need to wax the stickers.
