The Oz Stelvio story gets murkier by the day.
1st we had a member here (che) import one from the UK into Perth, which he said he was going to ride to Sydney but promptly dissappeared and has never been seen nor heard of again, on this board at least.
Then John Sample Group, the Oz importer brought three in for ADR compliance testing, a black, a red and a white one (I think). Even gave one (or maybe more) To one of the local Magazines for a review, which of course was predictably shallow seeing as JSG are MAJOR advertisers in the magazine in question.
Lotsa rumors flying around about when it might be available, and they even put it on their web site as an available model at the same time as they removed the Norge form the line up earlier in the year. But any enquiry about a possible purchase was given the same tired story "na mate, never heard anyfink".
Then bugger me, the black one turns up as quote "a repairable writeoff" at an auction house in Sydney WTF????????
Seems we are destined to be forever the mushroom of the Stelvio world :angry:
