OK, so here's the dilema...
I've got a 2011 TE449 and well, frankly my girlfriend is pretty jealous since she's no slouch on two wheels herself. She's got lots of quad time, and lots of street miles, but not really any two wheel offroad time.
She's too tall for a TE250 and without a doubt strong enough to handle a 310. Plus if she's anything on the dirt like she rides street, the extra power on tap will allow her to have something to grow into quickly.
I've read up on the 2013 R update with the Red Head, Keihn FI and other internal stuff that it's damn near a new motor in the same chassis more or less. It sounds like Husky has stepped up to address lots of things and make improvments where they were needed most, while not screwing up the good stuff.
SO.....do I go for a smokin deal on a late 2012, or is a 2013 really THAT much better, and thus worth the higher price?
(unless I think she'll stand by for another year or so to get a deal on a 2013
