[lo0se3r]

looks likes an actual head at the front

[S2kane]

I'd like the rims to be polished or silver to show of the single side swing arm.

[IEVAQ8]

that looks tuff...........

[Nax]

any idea what the price is gonna be set at?? and if its going to be readily available or more of a vfr400 scenario

[S2kane]

Should be around 16,000 -17,000.. they are made in Europe so shipments may be far in between but will see more of these than the VFR's. I think we should get them in Red, Black, Green, And either White or Silver. Unfortunately they wont be around for the Melbourne motorcycle expo at the end of the month but they should be in the country soon after..

Are you loosing faith in me Nax??

[Nax]

i had faith??

lol no i was excited so i went and did some research to see some stuff about it, but it said that and i got the sads :(

do you know for sure that its coming here??

[S2kane]

I know 100%.
We will be getting black and green first. Early November.

[Nax]

wootskies then! red and black for me, but not till next year:(

[ard33]

hotness
i was looking to get me a litre bike

[Nax]

guy at the shop reccons early next year, shouldnt be as hard to get as the cb400 but will not be super easy to get, fingers crossed!

[S2kane]

No.. this month for sure.

[Nax]

wish i had my fulls now, such a wikid bike

any clue when were getting the other colors?

[S2kane]

They got delayed until the end of the month now... was going to be earlier
I wanted to take one out for a ride on the weekend.

New colors wont be around till at least mid next year.

[Nax]

thats cool then, will come out when im getting closer to my fulls,

im almost 100% sure im gonna get one tho, they are the meanest lookin naked i think, sorta a beefy cross of a hornet 600 and 900 with some extra kickass thrown in.

[S2kane]

CB1000r's are here!!
Rec retail for the standard model will be around 18K while the ABS versions will be 19k!
i'll be taking one out this weekend.. :p

[10KRPM]

exxy for a naked.

[Nax]

i hate you:(

now that im going back to school no way in hell i can afford to upgrade to this thing in a years time:(:(:(

so sad, its so sexy, but alas she shall never be mine:(

[acampana]

S2kane is right. I spoke to Redwing Honda and they said it has arrived where the ABS is around 20K...which is 4K more than what they said a month ago.

My wife said she will consider letting me buying it if I give up Foxtel and Richmond Footy club membership....hard decision.

Quick qtn. I get my full licence in Feb/09. Is it too much of a jump from a 250 to a 1000?
I know some people have told me its all about common sense and not being stupid on it. And others say go to a 600 first then the 1000....

[10KRPM]

hmmmm prob what will get you in the most trouble is the pickup from standstill over a 250.

Take it for a test ride....see how you handle it...if ok then maybe its for you...if not then its a maybe still but you might just have to ride it like miss daisy until you get the hang of the power/torque.

[S2kane]

I agree.. they have massive torque down low..
However they are easy to manoeuvre around and i think you will get used to in a few weeks as long as you take it easy.
So no full throttle launches off the lights !!
When i was 20 i went from a NSR250 to a 929 Fireblade easy but i had been riding dirt bikes since i was 5..
I'd give up the footy membership no probs.. but Foxtell... oohh that's tough

[preludacris]

can u repost the pic?
