The Aero carried into the 2000s essentially unchanged, still the retro-styled member of the 1100 family with its single-crankpin ACE engine, full skirted fenders, floorboards, spoked wheels and 2-into-1 exhaust. It was dropped after the 2003 model year, leaving the Spirit and Sabre to carry the 1100 line to 2007.
