Just wondering, if anyone knows the difference between these 2?

Wanted to buy one as my first bike so just need to know the difference if anyone knows.

Sorry and thank you! Smile

"New for 2016" suggests to me that the bike got a facelift in 2016, so both the 17 and 18 bikes will be current models, I imagine any difference will be paint schemes and a number plate

So, basically buy the cheapest in the colour you like

They had to update it in 2017 for the Eurobollocks, i.e. add ABS (on the front disc only). It was already full-LED and strangled for Euro4, so it's not like they'll have done much if anything for 2018.

If you do go for a 2017 model, just be sure that it's actually 2017 with ABS and not an even older new-old-stock example.
