When I got home I looked it up on the internet. Apparently very few of the 1900s were made. The Jap home market models even had reverse. I suppose that's because the little short arsed oriental gentlemen couldn't duck walk them backwards.(I'm not sure that I'd like to try either)
I don't remember the name of the site, but it's well worth searching for it, just for the drool!
Thr Rune did not sell well because of it's styling and lack of utility. Other than a tank bag you couldn't haul much else. The price was even higher than a loaded Gold Wing.
