98 remains my favorite Contique year, with 96 being a close second. However, I am not a fan of the pre98 Mystique aesthetically speaking.




IMO the 98s were trouble-makers. A new design, with a few flaws. Perhaps, I just speak from experience b/c my mother has a 98SE that has been a nightmare compared to my trouble-free 99SE. However, I got a chance to ride in a pre-98 recently, and I must say the craftmanship is impeccable. I definitely wouldn't mind owning one.
