does anyone know what the actual on road cost of this bike will be and when they will be available, I need to talk my wife out of getting a scooter and reckon she may be on board for one of these

[Barfridge]

same price as most 50cc scooters... and half the price of the CBR125, they should be onto a winner

[fractoid]

Should be marketed under the brand RCBF125. As in, REALLY can't be fucked.

Link doesn't give engine power but it's a SOHC and it's only running 9:1 so I'd guess somewhere around 7-8kW?

Its goto be less embarrassing sitting in the garage than a scooter though

Not joke.

sdfkljgWTK: What would you rather be caught riding?

[Barfridge]

Nice joke.

Pagstas are a horrible horrible joke. Not funny at all.

They will probably doing the same at barbs on their track bikes on the weekend anyway.

The big four let hyosung into the market by not releasing a new 250cc earlier so I see this as a very smart move by honda to catch the next wave of down sizers. And if you really liked motorcycles would it matter what you or someone else is riding?

Rear Brakes Internal expanding shoe

that's a drum brake isn't it? i thought they were illegal on new bikes??

Thats a new one to me, where did you hear that?

[Scoundrel]

Can't say as I've heard of that one either and for memory the "new" Royal Enfields and one of the Triumphs has a rear drum

[daggles]

i heard a mate talking bout it late last year. something bout braking power?
i was only half listening (i was drunk) so i might be wrong, but that's the thought that stuck in my mind.

[Falcore]

Drums can have a lot of braking power when they want to.

[Barfridge]

The bike weighs 137kg and will struggle to do 80. How much braking power do you think it needs?

It's not like we're trying to pull up a 200+ kg bike from 200+ km/h

good point. i'v just got the mental image of my old Holden panel vanin my head, had rear drum and front disc.
had a front brake line let go one nite and the front disc's failed, and the rear drum took me about 3k just to slow down.
