The front of the fairing (the part you don't get to see when riding) is better-looking, yet the part you look at is uglier.

Supposedly has tweaks in the forks to enhance ride. Swingarm isn't so chintzy. Fuel-mapping is smoother, the on-off-on "jerkiness" is supposed to be "cured".

I haven't heard if the goddam backlash in the drivetrain has been fixed, though. (my only REAL complaint about mine)
