    Suzuki’s lackluster US site still doesn’t have 2009 bikes and colors. Kawasaki had its stuff up the same day as the show. Yamaha also was quick to put its stuff up.

    Meanwhile, have we already heard everything from Honda?

    Those are from Europe, showing euro colors, but I’d put money on us getting at least the repsol or tricolor ‘Blade and both models with optional ABS. Don’t know about any other new models yet.
