Waiting for cb650

Since early August. Was expecting to get late this month or early December. Was pretty weird that they were quite for 2 months.
Some already waited since June.

Damn, I placed order of my CB650R on early Oct. That time also he said 2-3 months, not sure how to feel. Also bought a number plate already cry.gif

Why not a GSX-S750? About the same price.

Really not a fan of the looks, and no idea what design magic Honda did, their headers looks the sexiest among all 4-cyl bikes imo

Yeah I also buy a nice number plate. Mid August

Should be viable for 1 year. If you bought it from  ebid.
I'm gonna wait and see. Since I already set my heart on the CB.

If it's goes really bad. I might change to z900rs.  But the price is to high. So maybe not
*
Mine I bought from Mysikap, RM300 plate only but it's the plate number that I want. Valid for 6 months only if buy from MySikap IINM. cry.gif

Not sure what my backup plan would be if I can't get it. Tested the Triumph but it doesn't really tickle my fancy too much.

just passing by BW along NPE . see no big bike inside further hard to park (no car park)..

u went to triumph PJ?
*
Got big bike inside, but almost all of it is customer's bike awaiting collection. CB650R they have a demo bike for display though and I managed to get a test ride for it after I placed my booking. Car park can park at the row of shops next to it kot. I went there by my own bike so parked right at their entrance.

And yeah I went to Triumph PJ to test ride a few bikes. Can read about my experience over here

haha, not anymore

just that the list is long, even with the AP's the bikes are not coming in as fast
if anybody holding their Honda's, next 2 years will be the opportunity to make a quick buck

I see bw pj cb500x and Cbr650r masuk already, but Cb650r krik krik laugh.gif

I was told some models masuk, particularly I heard the CB500X, so yeah... this is verified by you, thanks
this model I minat, but... I guess, I have to settle for something else that is more readily available and budget friendly

XADV also start coming in, but the waiting list is in the range of hundreds
*
No need verified by me, just follow bw pj fb page, they upload photos of new bike deliveries. One of my friend received delivery of cb500x, and there's a photo of bwpj with one row of Cbr650r. But the Cb650r is nowhere to be seen. Luckily I didn't wait.

My friend who bought the cb500x was very interested in the xadv, until he test rode his friend's unit and said the bike is not nice to ride laugh.gif

I see... I tested CB500X, very good... XADV also very good, maybe your friend tak biasa scooter? Just the launch of XADV a bit juddering, and the engine revs very low. Riding long distance with the XADV is a superb pleasure
*
My friend also owns a xmax and vespa so he's pretty well versed with scooters I'd say. He also owns a Katana, Ducati scrambler and the cb500x is his latest addition to the fleet. He said the xadv was one of his dream bjems then when his friend let him try it, he was disappointed laugh.gif
