I can't really say, because I work for a honda/harley dealer. I think the CDN OTD is $12,499 though.

Yeah hah. In Canada we don't have the white ones, and black just makes me angry, after working on Harley's I understand swirl/scratches much more.

I know what OTD means, but I can't say the exact price. I got a good discount plus I got the PDI and prep, frieght and gas free. Those alone are about $1000 worth of additons. Regardless thats the MSRP. If you were to go into a dealer in Canada and get one, its about $13,800 after taxes.

haha, the mirrors are like that because I cant always have my bike on the lift. Although we have 10 lifts were so busy lately I have to put it in the storage area (along with 200 harleys/hondas)

Thanks man, I didn't think it was even a Honda when it showed at work. I was lucky though. I do the assembly for Harley's and Hondas, I got to build and prep my own purchase haha. So I know someone wasnt putting the bars/wheels on hand tight.

Is that how mechanics usually tighten up things that don't belong to them? That's great to know. I guess it doesn't matter to them since it's not their *** on the line.

Not our mechanics or most mechanics. There was an article I read about the Honda factory not marking bolts anymore. They used to mark them to show which had been torqued. I guess a number of bikes went out with out torque specs's and all the dealers had to be notified.

Either way, I got a nw bike!

Thanks man, the black to me is really sweet but you can notice scratches so easily on black bikes. I wanted to do a full out ghostrider kind of theme, but the blue just struck me. All my gear is black though, minus my wild helmet. As for the red, I don't really like it. I love all previous red RR's but it just didnt look too good.
