I'm new and probably not in the right section. 09 SW, clearview windshield. No other mods. Can anyone tell me what mods have taken place since 2002 SW model was introduced. There is a 2002 for sale locally and at a good price w/ lo miles but I don't know if Honda made any big changes. Can anyone help?
Can anyone tell me if there are any big changes between 2002 and 2009?

Many small changes like the glove box handles and that kinda stuff, but nothing major.

Honda also added an O2 sensor around '07 or '08 I believe, so if you're into aftermarket exhaust that might be a small factor to consider.

The '02s are slightly faster than all other model years.

Very good feedback. Thanks so much. I guess now I'll own two sw's. Smile
I'm new to the scooter world. Last one was a Lambretta if that tells anyone anything. I'm 65, riding all kinds of bikes since I was 14 and happened by the SW by fluke. What a suprise. I've taken many long distance trips on 2 wheelers through the years and am planning my next one in a week. Live in Muskogee, Oklahoma and frequently ride to Montana, Colorado, Nevada and California. I was sooo suprised at the performance and comfort of the SW. I think it's the best kept secret in the bike world. Looking forward to touring East TX, Gulf coast, and Mississippi next week.

Okay, I've cleaned up the Chat Room thread.

Please don't respond in that thread if you are responding to the info contained in this thread. That is like sending a post card to your father to answer a phone call from your son....

Should have merged the two and cleaned it up that way, but too much work to do so I punted.

Big Bird,

I did not transfer your post, hope that is okay.

That's my understanding as well. Smile

There were some internal computer differences in 2002-03 compared to the other years, and in around 07 in the USA they switched from a painted dashboard to a textured one with better map pockets and closure and locking mechanism.

The differences that aren't cosmetic really aren't worth considering a new bike for.
Cosmetic changes can be adapted. I converted my dash from the painted to the textured for instance. Much cheaper than buying a significantly newer bike because it already has the different dash.
