Yes, I would do exactly the same thing. I would certainly enjoy examining the motorcycle, and, if possible, taking it for a test ride. I would also hope that the vendor was selling the bike for less than the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP).

Yes, that is the real problem. I doubt that Honda will introduce the CBR 125R for sale in the United States. It appears that Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha are content to surrender the entry market to the Kawasaki Ninja 250R. :roll:

Yes, if I decide to purchase a street bike it will also most likely be the Nina 250R. It’s a great little bike. It’s competitively priced, and it outperforms the competition.
