    Personally, I think now.

    There are sales on with stores trying to clear out 2008 stock. There seems to have been a trend to downgrade the spec on bikes from 2008-09, or raise the prices, so an 08 model is better value anyway. Coupled with extra discounts, I'd say there's no better time.

    I'm not a shopkeeper, btw.

    Yep, now would be a good time to look.
    FCN 2-4.

    ...now, as last years colours are being sold off cheap to make way for the new paint jobs...
