Ciao mdkia
The problem is not the actual price of the bike itself, but the taxes that the government put on all kinds of vehicles. Bloody vampires they are!
I am however going to Italy this summer ( by car with family, sadly not on my bike ) and rest assured I will indulge myself in every kind of italian cuisine!
Drive safely!

Hmmm... it's unbelivable, here we have to pay 20% of taxes for everything, for food, for cars, for motorbike ...but the price I wrote you is already the "taxed" price. Norway is not in Maastricht ...am I right?

That's right, we're not members of the EU. That is besides the point however, cause Denmark is a member and I think it's even more expensive there.

Tax is maybe the wrong word, it's more of a fee wich takes into consideration things such as weight, horsepower etc. THEN there's a 24 % tax on top of everything else. Sucks? You bet.

Any idea of how much a Dainese Ergon helmet is in Italy? I might buy one on my vacation, in Norway it's about 530 euros.

I have an R1 (1999 model, had it since new).
Personally I think it's well over rated. I don't think it handles well at all and the brakes are worse than my '96 ZX7R.
It's the only bike I've really had to fiddle with suspension and now have it turning quite well although it's still not 100%.
Anyone ridden a 2002 model? Is the handling truely better?

The model I was thinking about is the ERGON EVO 2 XTHREE
On the link you posted I found the Arai QUantum F for 444 euros, and if the prices are anything like this I'll save about 200 euros wich will buy me a lot of Chianti! Thanks for the tip!
