Re: ZRX should do well
Yeah, that sounds right. The outgoing R1100R was at $8,990 w/o ABS, and I'm hoping the R1150R will be the same. Speculation on the BMW lists is that it will be somewhat higher because of the bigger engine, new tranny and brakes. I'd be reluctant to go much higher with the competition that is shaping up in the $7500 - $8500 range.
With a little smaller engine, I'd hope the Hornet wouldn't be over the FZ-1's $8500, but then that might cannibalize Interceptor sales, if it stays at $9500. I also agree that Triumph may have to rethink it's pricing on the Speed Triple, Sprint RS( & ST?).
Still, it's only good news for consumers.
