    Cool And.... another.

    Well,

    I picked it up last night... weather was overcast so the piccies were dull on the phone cam, SWMBO was in hospital getting a knee replacement, so I wandered up to see her and got a couple of pics

    Magic buttons

    Had a lot of fun sneaking home from the visit later that night, still tentative around corners, worrying about scraping, haven't touched yet. Just gotta get a little more used to it, but the motor is just plain great.... so smooth...

    And reverse is awesome for waddling past the car into the shed!

    Now, where are my damn accessories?

    How much does it cost in Australia ? If it is for $ 25,000 AUD, that comes to around $ 19,723 USD. Still puzzled why we don't have cruise and reverse here. Looks like we are paying more getting less. Am I right ? What are other factors that Honda won't introduce it in US. Marginal cost and Marginal revenue

    We should start importing "grey" bikes to the USA to give Honda a "hint".

    2 things you tempt me with...
    - used to be a black addict, now I wonder if I should 3M matt finish on front and back and paint the rest in a great shiny color..you bike looks awsome...
    - became a kiwi previously in my life, now in Canada they refuse knee surgery "because I'm too young".. I'm 51 you're 46... I should put Perth on my "to live" list and become an Aussie...(after getting Canadian citizenship of course )
