The 800 also has a hidden monoshock in the rear where the 1500 has two shocks in plain view (one on each side).

Apparently the bikes are totally different.
I have 1500cc Drifters and am thinking about getting an 800cc Drifter before all the low miles/nice ones are gone.

What are the many differences between the 1500cc and the 800cc Drifter....a complete list would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
