Default Cant decide 2008 spirit vs 2009 spirit

Hi Everyone,
I have been holding out for a deal on a honda shadow since i got married, weddings are expensive But I think i found one, its a 2008 honda shadow spirit for with 3700 miles on it for $3800. I'd been holding out for a 2009, is this a good deal? Am I gonna miss out on anything not getting the 2009?

That's a pretty good deal. I think paint schemes might be different between 08-09

Pretty sure they're the same. That's a decent price around here, but your area may be different. All other factors being equal (they're usually not) that's a good buy. Even better if it has accessories.

Buy it now, before she changes your mind. One year's difference isn't a big deal, and the low mileage is great. If it's in good shape and you like its looks, take the leap.

Looks like a pretty good deal. I have a 2009 and other than different paint colors, I think the bikes are just about the same.

I've got an '08 Spirit and that's a suspiciously good price. I'm assuming it's a private sale. If you're willing to risk a little cash (so you don't risk a lot, later), I'd ask to have it checked out at a reputable shop first.
