Subject: re: 60 HP and part prices






Hi Micha,

the list is very quiet at the moment, everybody in vacation !?

welcome to the unleashed AT club ;-) yesterday, a friend of mine wanted to
try the AT so I drove his ZZR1100 (a 150 hp one). The accelaration are
amazing, not to say scaring, but the bike is not funny at all, especially
on windy roads. A quarter of hour later, I was happy to get the AT back!

Although Japanese bike parts are unreasonably expensive, 260 dm sounds
excessive for the parts you mention. I would be curious to know the gain of
each steps (maker, distributor and dealer) ? Something is wrong with this
system, but as all bike makers has the same price politics ...

Have fun,
Pierre
