No pics yet, will send when the bike arrives.
It’s really not that big a deal in terms of the bike itself…there are a limited number of them that are allowed to be exported directly from Japan and they can’t be registered for street use. I had a friend hook me up, it’s kind of a ‘know a guy that knows a guy’ thing.
Details are vague as to what you get with the bike and it seems to change year to year. Last year one of the MotoAmerica racers got one from the same place, and what he got was a stock version of the bike with the Ohlins 3.0 electronic suspension and stock ECU, the HRC ECU and Harness comes with the bike in a box. The fairings are black. While it’s the stock ECU it’s the track version that is not power restricted for epa compliance like the US and EU versions. So I may run the bike like that for awhile then put the HRC ECU and Loom on there later.
The big deal about it is the price. With the currency exchange and getting a non street registrable version I ended up saving well North of $10k…
As it has an unrestricted tune I’m assuming there will also be the Asian market version of stuff like air intake trumpets etc…but we’ll see when it gets here.
A buddy got an HRC 600 from them that was WELL kitted out with factory spec’d race Showas not available to the general public and a whole bunch of other race parts…so hopefully this years version of the 1000 is like that. But even if it isn’t and I just get an essentially unrestricted stock bike with the HRC ECU and Loom kit in a box to install myself the price was an offer I couldn’t refuse, and if it comes kitted like this years 600 did from them then it’s just bonus.
Will essentially look like that but without the mirrors and tail lights.
