Umm, that's great bike, but its also very expensive. I sure hope the EC has some good plans for selling tickets and covering the cost of either model.

Glad to see the notations about taxes, etc and picking it up from their local dealer, good to have some of those details up front.

No problems there Steve.  Honda has made it financially doable and they deserve a whole bunch of praise and gratitude for doing so.  They have been more than generous in their support.

I think they are planning on you to buy $30K of raffle tickets.....then all the rest sold will be profit! ;)

Good to hear Pat, sorry if my post sounded negative but I recall problems in prior years with bikes that cost half as much. I was going to say "or maybe we got a great deal" but that seemed unlikely based on past raffle bike info I've heard.

Jim Park,
Well if I buy that many tickets I better win the bike ;)

Yes, I am. Congrats to your friend on the new bike and thanks for shopping at my friends at Niehaus Cycles. Some great bargains on leftover 2018's.
