Could the reason the Z125 will not head to Europe be because of the mandatory ABS laws coming into effect for 2016... it would add a ton of extra cost to a low margin product...

If that's actually why its not going to europe there is hope it comes to NA...

Why not just charge more for it? If Honda sells the Grom there, there must be a way to build the bike and price it to be a good seller and profitable.

How much would adding the ABS actually add to the margin? I'm sure people won't mind paying a bit more for it.

For the Ninja 300 the difference is $300. I would assume about the same because the bike may be smaller but the ABS system is exactly the same.

Honda doesn't offer the MSX with ABS... check Honda UK
