The tranny didnt get any better on the 24v. The 12v can be modified alot cheaper and without all the electronics is more reliable. The 24v is electronic so its more plug and play.

The 24V also have the VP44, which has been known to fail quite frequently, if not treated properly. I personally prefer a 12V, no electronics to stop it.
