Huh, really? I had heard the pics of the new R1 will be out sometime next month, but that it would be March before it's available. I could be wrong though.

Thats what I thought also. Normally "most" manafactures show the pics of the 09 models in Sept. From then the cruisers and smaller bikes will start to "trickle" in and they usually release the new model liter bikes around Feb/March.

yeah i think they are holding the new design till some show in sept. and nee, if thats the case then if you go with an older one you can flip it without loosing much if anything if you guys like the new ones. eh, my opinion. love the hawk nose on the new ten, and kawi's integrated dash clusters kick all kinds of ass

If it's a complete redesign or similar, they usually don't release them until that actual year, but if everything's pretty much the same, you may be able to see 'em in '08. The '09 R6S will be out this month for example.
