Title: kuwahara re-issue....???
Post by: rakas17 on October 07, 2006, 07:09 PM

just been to the cycle show, got in for free cos i filled out the form on the net claiming i was trade and they sent me a pass :4_17_5:

anyway, i saw a kuwahara stand with this laserlight on it, they ran out of catalogues but the bloked showed me one and it had a 25year anniversary E.T. ...  i looked on the website and theres no mention of these bikes, weird :idiot2:

I hope not  :LolLolLolLol: Needs to be more than a paint job to be a re-issue  :daumenhoch:

Still it's good to see that they are respecting their heritage to a certain degree  :daumenhoch:

They got a lot closer to a real re-issue last year. Not sure if it's a current model any more:

One of our aussie guys works for Kuwahara. He said they are putting a lot of effort into their lineup. This is a really nice bike and I think it looks awsome.
