Kind of makes you wonder about the timing, what with Ron Cotes leaving the motorcycle branch, recently, too.   ???  Sounds like a shakeup to me.

Yes I read the same about the no more 500s. I’m very sad as it’s my favorite RE motor. But I did see the hand writing on the wall when the 650s came out at about the same money.

Twin cylinder bikes killing off the 500 singles. History repeating itself?

If so, you would have to order those fries from your local dealer who has never heard of fries, doesn't have the part number, or know the price.  :P One day, after all is long forgotten your fries will arrive!  ;D just sayin'... ::)

The part number is critical.

It is no good just pointing at the fries.  if they do not have a part number in the system they do not exist and cannot be sold to you.
