Andy has new SSR's in stock. 200cc and 250cc
Other than the decals they look like Q's.
Much more money than they used to be. I rode the 250. Just around town I can't say it feels much more powerful than the 200 but I can tell there is a difference, especially down low. I'm not sure how I feel about the wheel/tire combination though. I think they are 18's front and rear with wide 50/50 tires. It seems a bit like a grown up TW. Nice bike, but a little pricey. I did notice some QC glitches. The rear brake has excessive travel and likely air in the system. The front brake despite a SS line was very weak, almost like the pads were contaminated. The lights on the panel, like the neutral light and high beam indicator were always half lit, and the clutch was hard to operate and stiff and squeaky. Just easy dealer prep type stuff, except a possible wiring/electrical issue in the instrument panel.
