QUOTE(Patent @ May 21 2024, 04:57 PM) Model announced: What do you guys think of the price? Reasonable? Gotta note that Honda's Hornet price is super close to the 8R and 8S, and there's a whole bunch of upcoming China bikes soon to challenge the Japanese dominance.GSX 8R - RM 53 900 GSX 1000GX - RM 89 900 Vstrom 800RE - RM 54 900 For CBU japan bikes, must say the pricing is quite aggressive. |

QUOTE(Patent @ May 27 2024, 10:50 AM) I think they are priced reasonable fro cbu japan bikes. Those bikes even though with 800cc (82hp) are still twins. Lack the power (it has more torque though) and sound of triples or 4-cylinder bikes. That makes them seem a little less substantial to the buying public. Perhaps those into lightweight twin cylinder bikes may go for them but for the money, a Z900 still has more grunt and sounds way nicer, while being more affordable (to me, for bikes, I don't see much difference between CBU and CKD). Even Triumph's Trident 660 (80hp) and Daytona 660 (95hp) offer more for the asking price than the 8R and 8S. So, like you mentioned, just wait for them to rebate Although the 8R might get the same treatment like the 8S if it doesn't sell well... so wait for possible rebate? Their closest japan competitor here is kawasaki, but they don't have the same segment for the 800cc platform. |

QUOTE(jaycee1 @ May 27 2024, 11:19 AM) Kawazaki just does one better giving you 948cc displacement for the same price. Ya. I totally agree! The lack of a full fairing Z900 is a huge wasted opportunity now that fully faired bikes are slowly making a comeback.Just too bad they don't have a full fairing sports tourer...next step up is the 1000sx and another planet's price point. |
