But the 660Z was not on display at the NEC bike show - it was that which prompted my question.

Thanks for the eyes on update on the UK show scene. We don't hear much about it here ... and our shows are a joke by comparison with several major OEM's bowing out. Sounds like a similar thing is happening in UK. (Reason given by some OEM's is that show promoters are gouging , charging a fortune to rent a stand for 3 days)
I guess the new companies will have to find another way to introduce riders to their new bikes.
