Across the ocean.....

Hi!
 
I'm Bas and although I live in the Netherlands (Europe), I have registered here to read more about the FJ09 (or like us MT09 Tracer) Unfortunately I can not test drive in the Netherlands, but I expect that I will buy it soon. Off course after a good test drive. My shortlist at the moment
1. FJ/MT 09
2. Tiger 800
3. V-strom 1000
 
My current bike is a 2006 Z1000
 
Partly because the bike is not yet in the market, there is little in the Netherlands about finding owners. Thus came here.
 
Regards,
Bas

Hello Bas, where abouts are you in The Nertherlands? I was there last weekend and had my bike serviced in Hilversum, they might do you a good deal on your Z. They have all three bike colours in stock, so a racing Blu for you :))
 
Let me know please if the location is good for you and I'll give you all the details - the spares & accessories manager is also Bas 8-)

Yes that's them, very friendly - as I say Bas is the spares guy and I think Roger or his dad Nico are the right chaps to speak to about a test ride and trade in. They had a silver/blu bike outside which I think is their demo bike. If you do go there 'stuur my groete asseblief' (sorry not quite Dutch, but hopefully you'll understand - Please send my Regards)

Thans for the vd Kuinder tip, but I've got a good deal today with the dealer i plannend a testdrive with.... Now just a long week waiting for my Racing Blue Tracer :D
 
to bad the heated grips, topcaserack and sidecases would be there yet on pickup, but i'll manage without. They'll be mounted/placed with the first service.

I like the blue wheels but not the colour they chose for the tank. Now if they did matte grey with blue wheels like the UK version of the MT07...
This signature is left blank as the poster writes enough pretentious bollocks as it is.
