You're right, they both have small tanks, but the one from last May has a way rustier frame, mounted taillight, different rusty patches on the handlebars, etc.

Is it a bad thing that I really really really want this one and the one from last May?
Call me Mel. Some years ago- never mind how long precisely- having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me at home, I thought I would ride about a little and see the other parts of the world.
