12 days and counting.... just waiting on the container to arrive... We are indeed selling them. As far as I know, we are the only US source for them, they are 'used', I cant wait to demo one.

When we get them, they will have a clean, clear title ready for US roads, and at time of purchase, licensed.
as for 10 hp... we do have the ability to put performance parts and accessories on the bike, and a dyno for some cardio for it.

You aint doing 160mph on this bike, that aint this ride. It really is just a nice fun alternative to the new Ninja that is impossible to get. (yeah I know 250 vs 125) Still there are very few small displacement sport bikes out there that are fun and road legal.

I'm curious about the "All are used motorcycles with 10 miles on them." Do they have to be "used" to get them into the states? They would be a cool little commuter bike for sure. I'm sure you wont have these long at all.

I did not know a new Ninja 250 is impossible to get. Can I not walk into a local Kawasaki dealer today and buy a new one?

I'm guessing these '08 models are bikes that were intended for sale in Canada. Any idea if the warranty will be honored at a US Honda dealer?

What country are these bikes assembled in? I know it isn't Japan and I heard it was either Taiwan or Thailand. Any idea?

And my hat is off to whoever decided to take on this herculean effort at your store. Don't worry, I won't ask you who owns Max-RPM, we've been down that road already

bump it up

cool little toys, I think I could beat one with RS50 and that makes my RS50 even cooler now

Now bring in some 400's for the win

but these 125's look to be a great starter bike teird system for the win!!

As many as we can get our hands on, before the close of the season we to have 40-50 of these through the showroom. And keep one probably as a demo race sl*t

As far as what a local dealer will or wont touch on that bike remains to be seen as we are the first ones to bring them to the States. I know we will be able to order any parts you cant get locally.

The Ninja 08-09 250 is impossible to get USED. Which is our market. Yes we could buy one new, but whats the point of that?

That is an entirely different can of worms. I dont know.

Hell Id like to see us get the Sachs X-Road, but again we cant touch those new. The MadAss would make a fun pit bike as well.
Updates as they come available.

Stop asking questions with the intent/hope of receiving specific answers. This is not that type of thread...

...but if I had to guess (and please OP correct me if I'm wrong) these vehicles were imported to North America by Honda Canada for the purpose of being sold in Canadian Honda dealers for legal/certified street use in Canada. The powers that be behind the scenes at Max-RPM (we are to assume) have clearly devised some surefire method for obtaining a WA State title and registration for said motorcycles.

Are they legal? Are they certified? Those are very good questions and ones I'm sure any potential buyer will want specific answers for. One would almost have to ask... "What exactly does "legal" or "certified" mean anyway?

To me, "legal" means that I could buy one of these from the OP and let him/them register it for me. After that, with reg in hand, I could potentially get pulled over by one of WA State's finest revenue collectors for going 26.5 in a 25. After a lengthy bike/VIN/regsitration inspection by said officer/collections agent, he would hand me the registration and my freshly acquired citation however he would not impound my bike. So hey thats legal in my book. As to whether or not someone from the NHTSA agrees with me, or the title clerk in another state who scratches their head when I ask to transfer the title to that state, well, we can cross those bridges should we ever be so lucky as to get there.

"Certified"? That is another great query. In my mind, "certified" means there is some sort of decal or placard affixed to the machine somewhere in plain view proclaiming the legality or road "usability" of said machine on Federal public roads/streets. Every vehicle sold for street use in the good 'ol U S of effing A has a decal that says something to that effect. My guess would be that of the 40 to 50 of these bikes being imported by Max-RPM (OMG that is a huge number!) none of them will have that "certification" decal. As long as you have a legit plate/title though, who cares? Or maybe you meant something else entirely by "certified" in which case sorry to waste your time!

In any event my hat is off to Max-RPM. Every shop that I have ever known to make a go of it at this level (40 - 50 units... WOW!) with grey-market machines sold for street use in the US made it their sort of "unofficial" service. The paperwork for each unit must be mind-boggling, especially considering all the extra steps that must be taken to obtain legitimate WA State street status. I have never seen any other shop publically advertise machines like that for sale, much less 40 of the crazy things. Since this very thread exists, we can only assume that someone did their homework on this deal. So whatever tiny morsel of profit is yielded from selling 45 or so CBR125 models at $3995/per unit is certainly justified and fairly earned.

Its not an easy process to get em here, get em licensed, get them US Legal, but the homework has been done, the requirements have been met, and they will be legal so that you only need to worry about Johnny Law pulling you over for 27 in a 25. The pink sheet will only reflect your speed infraction, not a vehicle title issue.

11 days, barring pirate attack, tsunami, earthquake, swine flu epidemic, global meteroic catastrophy or nuclear pre emptive launch.

Really? I've seen more than a reasonable number of them for sale.

I was always under the impression the cbr125 was a two stroke. Knowing it's a 10hp four stroke kinda takes the wind out from underneath my sails on it. Best of luck. If nothing else, you've brought in a sub-$10k honda sportbike, something Honda US couldn't do.

Not impossible, improbable maybe... Besides, they are only $3999 brand new MSRP, why not just get a new 250 for the same price as the 125 but get 3 times the hp, and twice the bike, not to mention huge aftermarket support...

Even an eliminator 125 is only $2799 MSRP..... realising these are so hard to get but at $3995 the only appeal to this is having something so rare..... looking at the tires it looks like it SHOULD have pedals....

Luckily a 25mph zone is the only place you CAN get ticketed for speeding....

Well there are school zones too. Apparently there are some tricky rules to when you can get nailed on that one. .... I still dont think it should be able to be enforced near Tracyton elementary.... its only been closed for a year... and it was on a Sunday to boot. Luckily the judge agreed with me. What a fun way to start off April.
