Pretty cool. Around $1600 is a really good price even if it's in rough shape. . .

Appears to be gone...... The TKO (Tokyo) is basically a Metro. I wish Roger would offer the Metro's in lefty but don't think they will... I tried. If we got enough pre orders, it could possibly happen but the prices still keep going up.

I was at the Sadowsky shop last Friday and spoke with Roger about it. He's just going by numbers. Every time there is a NYC lefty in stock, it takes months to sell, so building Metros for stock doesn't make sense to him, nor building lefties regularly for stock. Plus as many have mentioned here, it'll take a number of orders to get a run of Metros going, and getting 5 or 10 people, or whatever it is to all agree on the same model would be next to impossible. I personally wouldn't but a Metro because they tend to be north of 9 lb.
