My instincts tell me the 00-01 SERG's are the Harley version of the early muscle cars and the 09's the modern day version. Lots of chrome, power, and limited numbers. As the years play out there will bikes modified, trashed, parts lost and not available (shark fins, covers, seats...) but a few good examples will survive and be very valuable. I got my bike from a collector who wouldn't put miles on it, lucky for me I got over it quickly and have enjoyed it to the max. Mine will survive intact with high miles on it but still something that will be a real find for someone down the road. I could have bought a standard RG and saved a lot of money but that's like getting the Firebird instead of the TransAm. Doc
