Voltsmith +1 & 4trialsguy have to drop out too. Harsh realities of too much work to do for all three of us.

Hey Lex, I've got another guy from outside the asylum joining us. He's 4Trialsguy's buddy from the Lower Mainland.

Looking forward to it. Guess I should service the bike next weekend!

Canadian MSRP is available

I noticed on the Canadian Motorrad site that the announced MSRP is $9,750.00. Pretty much where I expected it to be. Pretty sure we'll be seeing quite a few on the road next year at that price.
