Arata Pricing: I fukt up

The Sook · 02-03-2005, 9:39 PM

Hahaha Sorry guys, must have been on the "strong" cough syrup the day I worked all the pricing out for Arata. They won't be as expensive as I have said. Hahaha. Most systems will be $2299, while the newer models will range between $2299 and $2999, depending on the bike. The ZX10 system Mikey, will retail for $2399 now. So not as bad as I thought, first worked out, fukt up etc. hahahaha. Sorry.

I'm also bringing in Sato now as well, but on an order only set up at this stage. Usually takes between a week and 2 weeks from order. Thanks guys.

Oh slip ons (Arata) will be $999-$1089 for the single muffler bikes. When you consider a Micron slip on is $999 in Ti, the Arata's are MORE than value for money.

Did you ever get a chance to test a skinning knife on the scum?

I dont think he has yet but he got a free plug in AMCN

(page 8)

AMCN had a long term test bike stolen last month, cbr600rr with matris, BST carbon wheels, full system and PC and a few other trick bits. The wheels along are over 5 gorillas worth and the only set in Australia.

this may be very useful info. Last monday a lovely lass from Mosman backed into my parked bike and knocked it over. The exhaust is dented / scratched and the ( second hand ) sato rearset has bent and dinged my swingarm. I am hoping to get her details from the police shortly ( she didn't leave a note but thankfully someone saw her hit the bike and took down her plate number ). If I get the details and claim thru insurance I will need to replace the right hand side Sato, and was thinking about doing a deal with the repairer ( which will be Sydney City Lane Cove ) and getting the Arata system instead of a replacement standard muffler ( as I already have a new one that I bought off ebay ).

Whaddya reckon.....sound like a plan ?

Not a problem from my end Micky.

BTW, that Matris damper on the amcn bike was mine too. Haha. I emailed Ken after reading about the bike getting kocked off, coz his blurb said "so if anyone offers you a Matris damper etc". and I wrote, Ken, if anyone gets offered a Matris damper, I think it's more likey to be one of the 75 I got taken from me here". Hence the "Plug" in amcn. Haha

You should be getting a call from Sydney City about the Arata soon......did you still have that one left at the lower price ?

Also...if I get it this way....will I still be eligible for the free custom map ?

The Sook · 02-20-2005, 10:26 PM

Yep . Doesn't matter where you buy it, as long as it's through me in some way, you get your pc mapped for nuthin'.

Yes I have 1 system left. Tell Phil Courie to pull his finger out and cal me. haha

Cool....but it's actually getting done thru the Lane Cove store......I spoke to Neville and he reckons he's called you already....and also about the Sato rearsets ( though don't know if the insurance will cover these as I only paid $450 for them off ebay and they are worth a lot more )

The Sook · 02-21-2005, 7:43 PM

I have Arata rear sets in stock for the ZX10 now. The Sato's will be around a week or so if you want them. They're a little cheaper right now also, than the Sato's. Anyway, I think he called me about them, but I can't remember about the Arata system. Did he say he ordered it? Coz he definately didn't do that.

I don't think he ordered it because he was waiting for the insurance to give the go ahead. He did say that the Satos were the same price as the Aratas....but again...need to wait and see what the insurance says ( they may not cover the whole amount for the Satos as I bought them cheap off ebay and they cost twice that to replace )....I am hoping to hear from them very soon because I have to go down to Melbourne on Monday for 2 weeks and want to get it all started before I go

The Sook · 02-21-2005, 8:11 PM

I'll just check when I got the ZX10's. The rear sets WERE $699, but are now $899. Same as the Satos. But if I had them before the hike, you can have them for the old price.
