Can you buy a W800 in Canada?

I am a big fan of them ever since the 650 came out. Its such a good looking engine. The W800 is just too 'ornamental' though, like it belongs in a display cabinet. That's not even truly retro, even the best 60's and 70's bikes had a fair bit of Ural about them, despite how they scrub up in the Classic Bike mags. Aghh bikes and women these days can't appear in gloss without every imperfection air-brushed from existence.

650 was a real motorcycle - carbs and kickstart.

True but I prefer the W800 and fuel injection .

It's a beautifully finished bike, I saw on in the street last week.

I do like that fact that they straightened out the exhaust.
