I have one and so does my brother.
They are solid bikes and worth the money.
Mine is an 07 and my brothers an 08 so ours have the older pushrod motor but they have good power with lots of torque!
My only complaint with it is the front forks are really soft. But I think there are a few threads on here about shimming the springs and putting in heavier oil to make them stiffer.

As long as you buy it understanding that this bike is not built for taking 20 foot triples on a motocross track you will like it. Its alot of fun to trail ride on or just bomb around dirt roads.

I'm planning on putting mine up for sale over the winter and buying one of the new overhead cam ones.
