Title: New 2009 models?
Post by: China Greg on October 02, 2008, 01:43:03 AM

Anyone hear anything about 2009 models yet?
Mostly Suzuki, but anything else as well, please!

So far, the US Suzuki site is showing off a new SFV650 Gladius which appears to be a new version of the naked SV650 (dropped for '09) and the SV650S is being replaced by the SV650SF - which is the S with a full fairing. The GSXR1000 is all new for '09.  Suzuki is adding a TU250 standard styled entry level bike next to the GZ250 cruiser.
The rest of the '09 street bike lineup looks like it just got BNG (bold new graphics).

:btw: the B1250 returns for '09 in both S versions for the US.

Haven't looked at the other brands' sites yet.

OK, just looked at the Yamaha, Kawi & Honda sites and the '09 news they have posted so far is covered in this thread:

I see that Suzuki has a B1250 ABS in black.  I always wanted a black bandit with ABS...  :duh:
