'03 and '04 both had the ripples on the frame. The easiest way to tell the two apart is to look at the linkage. The '03 has the same style linkage as the older bikes (anchored to the frame) and the '04 has a new-style linkage that's anchored to the swingarm.

The '04 also has a CR-style front brake line routing, while the '03's front brake line loops under the end of the fork leg.

Its a 04, I have both the 03 and 04 and also a 07. You can power lights off of the powerjet circuit. They actualy work ok in tight woods and can get you home in a pinch. I run 2 LED MR16 bulbs on mine and a Acerbis LED taillight. For higher speed riding a Eline coil works very well. My wife has one on her 03.

i have found a '02 for $1200 and think I can get it for less... is it in the same family as the 04 or was there a model change in there? anything about a 02 that I need to know? I want to make a woods weapon out of it with an Eric Gorr 295cc kit... thanks in advance...

I finally found some time to start working on the 250 single track killer. I wanted to check everything out before taking it out to the woods. I regreased all the bearings. All were still good and it sure looks like I'm the first person to take this thing apart! I'm happy to see I don't need to buy any bearings. My wife and I are still paying off all the stuff we bought for the new house... I'm hoping to beable to dump some cash into this thing soon though. Suspension needs to be done + handlebars, plastics, fmf narly, flywheel weight etc etc.... piston and cylinder looks brand new still...
