Might buy this tomorrow morning 2015 961SE (1 of 50 brought into the US) with only 25 miles on it. The pipes look a little blue for that low of miles, but I'm looking at it tomorrow. He's asking $17K.
I think its a hell of a deal.

I traded in a Yamaha cafe racer a few years ago because I wanted to do longer rides but damn was that a nice bike. I've said that if I ever decide to trade out of sport tourers I'm going back to cafes and getting a Royal Enfield.

That would have been a sweet ride. Mine is still in transit, stuck in Michigan.

Wow. That's about a $90K ride, isn't it?

No I stopped short of the top of line model. This is a 2SS with the 6.2L V8 455hp 6 speed manual transmission, loaded with various goodies. Difference is its not turbocharged, but saves me 20k.

No, I do bad enough with my turbocharged A4 that I'm trading. Need for speed, yes please!

It was gonna be that or an M440i but I decided since I hardly drive my personal car anyway (around 1000mi/yr) it wasn't worth spending that kind of money on a vehicle.

It's ok. My other ride is a Colorado Z71.

I wonder what happened to that? Probably be worth a million today.

Hagerty had an article about it.
As I recall there was only a prototype, and folks adapted some based on the prototype pics.
They also showed a concept 4 door mustang as well..

Just looked(today) at the mid 650 and the Himalaya. Ultimately passed on both. Local Honda/Kawasaki dealer literally had no new inventory.None. And it's a big dealer.
