If I recall correctly, Dale was the first one to order a '14 last year (from a Canadian dealer). I think that means he'll be getting a Spencer Blue ABS Standard when he gets back to Canada in June.
Yes I will be moving back to Vancouver, Canada. That's where the bike's waiting. To answer your question CB4ME, I don't have a bike here. It's stressful enough in our suv. Driving anywhere in Asia is nuts. I think there are actually rules of the road written down somewhere here but they are not followed in the least. Gotta be vigilant at all times because that guy that's driving one-third into your lane probably WILL slide over right when you're beside him. Basically drivers here look at what's in front of them and nothing else.
There are tons of bikes here though very few full size type, mostly 125cc blue-smoking mopeds that weave in and out of traffic and drive in between regular traffic. They text while driving, carry more than 2 people (4 is common) and often hit your mirrors. I've seen a few crotch rockets here and some Harley's but never a UJM, don't even know if there available here. Even if there was you wouldn't catch me on one here.

Dale, that looks awesome! Please post a picture when you get home and get it in the sunlight. I wonder what kind of regulations there are for a US citizen to purchase a bike in Canada? If that is a six speed it would be perfect!

Beautiful... just freakin beautiful!! A huge congratulations is in order. :beerchug:
BTW, my first bike was a '74 XL100. Bought it new when I turned 15 and worked all summer to pay it off.

I wonder if this is the same blue as on Randy B's bike? Also, does anyone know if the Honda badges on the tank are all the same regardless of tank color...i.e., do they all have the dark red background (when in the right light), or does that vary?

Nope. Randy B's bike is a very dark blue. Not sure what Honda called it. Here's one from a Japanese site.pechorin75_imp said:
The new Canadian blue is much lighter.
Interesting to note that Pearl Spencer Blue tanks seem to be unique to Canada. I haven't see that color listed as available in any other country.
