How Many 2007 RWB Were Made?

Does anyone know how many bikes were produced with the RWB color scheme for 2007? My dealer told me that he thought that they were in a limited quantity. I ordered my bike back in October of 2006 and my VIN is #830, so I find that hard to believe. So, does anyone know how many are out there? if not, we could go by the highest VIN. Anyone got a VIN greater than 830?

Funny, somebody just did a thread on this about a week or two ago. Not sure if they had any numbers though. I wonder if Honda would give out these numbers if you ask them? Not like it would be top secret or anything.

Mine is 805. Picked up in April 07. Nozzle has one, and jackinthebox4 also has one. So that's 5 so far.

I asked the dealer that question when I purchased mine. He said he thought that the total production number was 2500 units.

Well I'm surprised that so far, I do have the latest VIN at 830. My dealer told me that they were only making 1000 of the RWB. I thought, and still do, that this number was low. However, until somebody comes up with a VIN that exceeds that, then he might be right.

Since Honda will stop making them, there will be a limited number. If they set a production cieling for a "limited edition" it would likely be noted on the bike or a special serial number plaque would be added. I'm guessing the actual run will be decided by demand, not by a set number ordained by corporate to help the value of the RWB.

my # is 00163

f'er says he's got # 1308, so maybe they were anticipating '07 to be a good year with the RWB.

Number 156

My VIN number ends in "900156", so I am assuming it is the 156th RWB-abs made. Bought the bike in July, 2007. Must have been sitting in the warhouse for awhile.

Given the size of Honda, I'm surprised they even fool with the VFR at all. 1000 bikes is nothing to a company the size of Honda. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the VFR line, but I don't see why they don't promote it more. How long has it been since you've seen an ad for one. They splash the CBR, Wing and VTX all over the place, but never a VFR.

Is this the bike you seen at Sportbike N.W. ? I met this guy around St Helen's and he said he was going back to Canada after returning from Sportbike Northwest...
