Hey guys, does anyone know if the new street 500 & 750 are available in Canada yet ?

Also what are your thoughts on the new bikes ? This might be a really weird comparison, i was thinking about going down the sport bike route and starting on a ninja 250 (new rider), but this new line up looks pretty nice and seems like an interesting compromise compared to the iron 883. Haven't gotten an insurance quote for it yet but if its not that bad which it shouldn't (500cc harley !?!?!?) i just might consider picking one of these up instead, i like both harley's and sport bikes, at this rate i just wanna ride lol.
 
Been to Claire's, Rocky's and Kitchener and haven't seen it yet in the last week. Didn't ask about it as it's not something I'm interested in.
 
Few points:
1. they are slower than even other Hardley Movinsons
2. Build quality is already suspect in reviews.
3. Likely Chinese parts.
4. these were designed to target Harley's biggest increasing demographic, women.
5. This could be worse than the Buell Blast fiasco.
 
Seeing how HD funnels good money into the major M/C publications it's quite comical how reviewers dance around what these bikes are. Reading between the lines can be just as much fun. I wonder how many people on the design team are actually on board vs. it's a paycheck. Seriously, what's wrong with building normal motorcycles? Ironically, since I'm the worst barometer of popular culture these things could sell like hotcakes.
