After seeing the pic below ... The perfect advertising scheme came to me for the TR bikes ... Take the pic of WC (I hope you're ok with me re-using your pic here) below and place it on every billboard across America ... From coast to coast, every, every girl rider will want a TR AND every BF will have to buy his GF one of these ... Not sure what the slogan should be that goes along with it ... any ideas? No way the factory could keep up with the demand if this is implemented... Husqvarna will be the new word your GF wants whispered in her ear at night ... And Husky can afford billboard action$ I'd guess ... -- I'm going on record now saying, that if I am still around, I'll try to buy one of these bikes in 2-4 yrs ...
I agree. Husky NA could trade a new TR to WC for the use of the pic. $7k sounds like an acceptable advertising fee. And then Husky could change out the pics a few times a year. As surely there would be many new pics to choose from from their epic ride reports.
Great post ray ray. I agree. That picture by itself has convinced me! My GF needs a new bike *wink wink* (she currently has a CBR 125 and is 5'4". But IF the TR was a tall bike I wouldn't stand a chance convincing her. p.s. I showed her that picture this morning exclaiming "Honey! I found your next bike!!!" Lol
Not street legal in the US?? Wow. It's such a mild tame bike, can't see why Honda didn't get it approved.
You have to "know someone" just to get one into the country. I expect that Honda knew that only ten people would buy them (this is 'merka after all, where a non-licensed 16 year old can buy a Busa for a first bike) so they didn't waste their time and money getting the model compliant with federal motor vehicle safety standards. And/or California emissions standards.
Ha-haaa! You guys are funny! I never said it wasn't tall...I said it wasn't too tall for me to actually get on and ride on the street. I'd definitely want to be closer to the ground if I were to take it in anything remotely gnarly...which I'm sure I'd end up in sooner or later As far as the slogan goes...isn't it obvious? A take on the old Honda ad, of course..."You meet the sexiest people on a Husqvarna" Just kidding...
It has been done. Maybe somebody on the CBR 125 forum can tell you how. I'll sell you mine cheap after I've set the land speed records with it http://www.hondacbr125r.com/forum/
How did this forum turn into a how to get a honda cbr125 post? its ok but i like to read about Husky 650s in the 650 forum.
Eh, it happens sometimes when shooting the breeze while sitting around the virtual campfire we call CafeHusky I'm sure if these lads want to get indepth about the rockin' little machine they'll take advantage of the Conversations feature here
