I very much dislike the pre-gen's suspension, brake dive is annoying. Least in comparison to the new-gen..the suspension is much better for cornering.
The pregen has about 2 HP more at the rear wheel (5 more at the crank). It also has smaller tires. That probably has something to do with the increased performance.

Then to add insult to injury, the pregen gets better mileage.

See here for the specs.
