Ours is an 01. Best vehicle ever owned! 215 k on it. Runs like a top. Burns 1 quart of oil every 8000 miles. Well within tolerance. Should get 20 mpg pulling the bike to WS16. Hard to beat that.

reason I'm asking is that a Canadian site sells tires way cheaper than any dealers I've come across, with free shipping to boot. when I come up with a good tire, I'm buying a few so that I don't get caught like this again. I found the ME888 for over a hundred dollars cheaper than the one I had to buy on the road at the mercy of an indy mechanic shop.

Found the MCII's to be great in the rain and tar snakes. But that's just my experience.
