I'd have to really get some close up time on a newer bike to give a better answer.. but since 97 some of the same issues still around that seam simple..
Oil fill hole,
small-ish fuel tank,
Shifter issue,
Fastners, more uniform.
And havent looked at the 13 up close but the 12 is way too tall for me.. I got my 97 and my 03 due to the near perfect seat height.. the 12 was way tall.. and with a seat of stone no give means I cant come close to touching the ground. That is a deal breaker for me. I dont like to chop suspensions down.. make them ride odd..my 04 ktm is fine..a bit tall but usable..the beta I checked out seams like a nice height.. TM is nice too..
All this said.. GG has come a long way since my 97 250ec.. which I still have and love.. I have no idea which way to go when I do get a new ride.. putting it off another season as this one is already not going well.. Maybe I'll get some seat time on a 13 and the info on the 14's will get my motor running.
