They dont always do it for the new bikes, got invited (and the ex took it along) to do a shoot/write up on the zx9 a few years ago-they wanted to know if it was still a good bike to have etc so it is worth filling out, they also ask on forums for volunteers Last edited by Paws; 22-01-09 at 08:36 PM. |

What you recommended, wouldn't it just be cheaper/better value to buy the '09?

Re: Test ride/photo shoot for ride mag on 09 675
considering how cheap brand new '08s are i suspect not, hence why i bought an 08 and not an 09

Re: Test ride/photo shoot for ride mag on 09 675
Ahh, they were talking about a £400 increase in RRP. I guess that doesn't take account of deals in the real world.
Did you test the '09 to confirm it wasn't worth it? |

assuming dealers have enough demand to charge RRP on 2009 preorders the real world difference is more like £2k+, and i couldn't justify that sort of money even if the bike is better as they say, ignorance is bliss

Re: Test ride/photo shoot for ride mag on 09 675
The money id lose in trading in my 08 for a 09 wouldnt make it worth it, plus i love mine-shes one of 150, and i think the new 09 is ugly.
It IS smoother, gearbox is better, so is the shock, and its tiny bit lower, but as i said- i could fix those things on mine if they REALLY bothered me (which tbh they dont) Was a fun day but wouldnt do it again in hurry-took agggeess to get that main pic shot (thats my black/gold 675 with me riding the 09 in background) |
