Oops. My mistake. I had a 2000 and currently have a 2001. I guess they 
needed more room for the improved engine.

Just out of curiosity, did the shape of the upper tank change or was it 
just the underside? The lines don't look like they changed at all. If 
that's the case, I'll bet that the tank pad can work on either. A 
suggestion for Bryce: I would get the color you want but before you 
order the pad find out what the return policy is in case it doesn't fit.

Also, if just the underside changed and not the frame or mounting holes, 
I would imagine that the smaller tank can be installed on the older bikes.
