Wow, I opened up my latest motorcycle magazine, and low and behold, there was an ad for the new Shoei RF-1100 and X-12... What the Hell are these guys thinking... Nothing makes me more angry than to see an ad for a product that I can't buy. What, we don't get enough "teasers" on TV...? They say September 29th... We will see. Rarely do they hit their mark.
My second issue is that they see fit to advertise, but yet us (Dealers) can't get ANY information on the new models. Trust me, I've tried. I did manage to find a few photo's online, but nothing from Shoei. It would be nice to have a little information, so when people see their ads, we don't sound like idiots...lol.
I have both the RF-1100 and X-12 on pre-order so I can get out on the road as soon as possible. It scares me a bit when companies make changes, to product that was really, really good to begin with. I have my fingers crossed that both models are steps forward. They (Shoei) better too. If the price goes up, but you don't get anything other than a cosmetic change, I will have a fun time doing the video reviews...lol. Shoei might not have such a great time.
