Thanks guys! Yet another cool bike we don't get here in the USA.

Are you sure about that?

There are reflectors on the fork legs, that's a requirement for the USA market.

Looks like for 2017 USA gets the XSR900 but not the 700. Maybe that indicates in the future we might get the 700. Some have been hoping for the MT-03 to come here (FZ-03?) for a few years now.

IDK about the reflectors. I don't see them much on bikes over here.
