I'm sure the RX4 will be much more expensive by the time it's perfected and meets European and U.S. emission laws. Plus I'm sure it will require a lot more corrections by the buyer for assembly errors and omissions! I'd wait for the 700 Tenere. I bet we'll be quite surprised by the minimal difference in selling price between the two bikes.

Too expensive or if the price were right, no profit in it imho.

What were the production years of the 660. Perhaps they were in a era in the states where it was not the fad for these bikes. For instance, the rice burner or crotch rocket phase in the US in the 80s, I seem to remember a hot war between the jap bikes with those.
