Think of it this way. The $500 savings will buy you new plastics when you drop it. You can get them in the black color you like when you have the confidence back.
I had my friend drive them both. Said the 2010 had some sort of shifting problem he couldn't quite figure out, and the shifting was hard. Also the steering shakes badly at around 45mph (he didn't go any higher as was the request of the guy selling the bike)

Said the black 2012 drove a lot better.
