Ok...I realize the bikes are the same and all, but just sitting here thinking I'm due to pickup my stryker this week but started thinking about how late in the year it is and just would like to hear some opinions on should I just have them order me in a 2012 model. Seeing how there is no difference, that rules things out...and givin the fact I tend to never get rid of a bike, I don't think its much of a factor...I did see they were going up just a tick in price, but that's not enough to care about...so I think I know my decision that it does not matter, but I am curious to what others think..so have at it.

I've seen used ones a few not many around yet...going into the lower 8's...but dealers...don't think so...well except for the dealers that put the rest back on the backside of the deal....I think my connections have things pretty straight. Dollar wise the bike is roughly 9k invoice price..outside of special case deals...in december there will be a lot more incentive to move the rest of the 11's.

anyway just kind of curious what people thought.

thanks.

other than the year model, are there any color spec differences?

i would just go with which color scheme you're most thrilled with. i took a look at the 11 Raven Stryker and i'm glad i purchased when i did. i'm not too thrilled with the 12s. even if you're gonna mod it all to ****, it'll save you if your baseline is more of what you like

no worries i am a smart ass most of the time. and i also agree that the 12's arent that nice. i don't like how the red one is exactly the same as the raven except painted red. And what is with that ugly STAR sticker in the middle of the bike.

Yeah, it's obvious the designers were trying to come up with something new and copied a few mods that are on here, that is one ugly sticker, looks like my 18 month old granddaughter colored it on with a crayon

I sat on a 2010 raven on the dealers floor today with a price tag of $11090 and there was a blue one that just sold.
I dident realize how much mine changed until I saw the stocker again.
Going backwards in time will not make anything better...ha the butterfly effect and all.

If you buy a new 2011 it is already a year old and is worth a lot less when you drive it off the lot. If the 2012 is a couple hundred more than the 2011 you are better off buying the 2012 for resale. Just something to think about!
