i had a look at one yesterday at a dealer......they where 10995 for a brand new 05 model......might be 11995 for the o6 model

I believe there is no difference between the two models. Maybe colour (red only) and thats about it. Push comes to shove the dealer will give it to you at the $10995 price.

Isnt this moot anyway BB?

Generally, moving up from 250cc, expecting look within the $11-14,000 range and all bikes considered seem to be in that range. The Hornet would be a good ride and at the original $10995 must say was tempting, but as mentioned there will be a lot of test rides in 07 for me.

The Blckbird price went up a couple of　months ago...as did the VTR1000..

The hornet at $11,995....(Wont sell!!!)

Crazy Steve.

most of the top sports bike in the last 5 years have been selling for good value second hand, why not look on the second hand market?

Gidday R6, haven't discounted that either. I get daily Trademe notifications, and so now thru 1st quarter 07 will be watching closely for some of the recent 04/05 models too.
