Question 749 dark-any good?

can't afford a 749/749S, but maybe a 2005 749 dark (maybe 2006 dark). do you think the difference between the dark and standard 749 would be noticeable?? Have read lots of problems with 749S and R on cutting out and idle, seems to be due to the cam timing, but does this happen to the cheaper models?? The spec for the Dark says the forks are Showa LC/RC 43mm upsidedown - - any idea what the LC/RC bit is and ......last question....i think the 2006 dark has the new swingarm and the 2005 the old swingarm, any difference here? I know lots of questions but just trying to do some homework before plunging into debt - and anybody want a good 2002 748E - otherwise it gets traded.
thanks
