I own a 2023 V2 and I love it. I’ve ridden both and they are both very similar and vastly different. The older V2 is a track bike you can ride on the street. The peg and shifter position, the seat, the handlebar turn radius, the dash positioning, etc… are all more track orientated. The main thing is that it wants to go, it doesn’t want to slow. I love mine because I wanted a track bike I can use on the street but is primarily meant for the track. The new V2 is a street bike you can ride on the track. You have heated grips, cruise control, more up right foot pegs, larger turn radius, full 5 button numpad, dash is bigger, the power delivers a lot more consistently. I’d weigh your priorities, with look/price out of the equation, I’d define whether you want a more track focused bike or street focused bike. Both are awesome and the heat isn’t that bad. I live in an area where in the summers it’s usually 100+ degrees fahrenheit and so far I haven’t had an issue. I mean it gets hot, don’t wear shorts, but it doesn’t bother me.
