scoobie232 Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 As the title says what are the differences between the two bikes technically and aesthetically ?, I'm moving towards buying one second hand so any information would be greatly apreciated.

fellonmelug Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 I have a 4 week old 4rt which is an 05 , i have just rode an 06 today and really cant tell much diff, the clutch is a touch lighter and smoother . I am well impressed with mine after years on the two strokes the 4rt is a leap forward like when the mono yam came out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsp Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 (edited) get an 06 if you can afford it, but you wont be dissapointed with either i love my 05, just been out with my mates (all 2 strokers) and destroyed them all on a big 3rd gear climb, the 4rt will just keep pulling and pulling.

mad4it Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 There are no noticable differences between the 06&05 my brother has an 05 my mate has an 06 and you can ride them back to back and they are the same . the clutch action is a little different apart fom that nothing !

rhaines Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 As far as I know the only difference is the clutch is smoother and the plastics have stickers instead of being painted. If you can get a cheap o5 I would go for it and if the clutch is to snappy for you spend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perce Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 When I bought my 4rt, I was told by the dealer that the only difference was the plastics. According to the parts book the clutch plate pack is different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
