good to see the Kawasaki W800 come back and especially awesome that it is finally coming to Canada...should be a good seller at $9999.

Whoops forgot about this thread. rrocket will also like the Svartpilen 701 for carrying on with the 690 single from the now discontinued 690 Duke he loves. The CB500X seems taller.

I share most of the cheers and jeers. As noted in the motorcycle thread, the CB650R could be my next motorcycle if I'm finally looking to get out of the 300-400 class.

Thanks!

But I've moved on from the CB500X!

The addition of the 19" wheel is interesting though.

Duke 690 isn't discontinued. Still available.

Unless you've heard something?

I've been watching all the unveilings up on my Facebook feed show up the last few days, and I think I need a few more Christmas trees at this point as there's so many I desire.

I particularly noted the MV Agusta Brutale roadster/naked bike........havent ever been a big MV fan even though I had a riding buddy with one in the US. But the Brutale is pretty sexy !

Of course the Aprilia RSV4 and the Duc Panigale V4R peaked my attention and stole my heart. Now let me walk down to the Bayern Lotto and buy a few tickets......

I assumed they were replacing the 690 with the 790, which I thought was confirmed when I told you that you should get a 690 before they're all gone unless you were ok buying used or something like that and you didn't correct me then.

I think at some point it was considered.

But then the gap from 390 to 790 was empty.

It's an especially sizeable gap when you consider the cost of the 790 too.  Yowch.
