I'm 2nd on the list at my work. Should arrive sometime in January. Didn't have to put anything down either, just my name in the computer:devil: For some reason, we only have 3 deposits so far...

Just put my name on "the list" today, I am #11 at my dealer. Feb/March more than likely for me.

I am 1st onthe list at a dealership in Utah. I got a call two days ago saying that the December delivery is now changed to January. Then they called me saying they got a fax saying to disregard the last message and it will be in December. Another source of mine told me yesterday that it will be January. Honda is still completing the tooling on the front and rear suspension. The pictures we have seen have 400ex a-arms and linkage and a 20" shock. None of wich will be on the production bike. The rear linkage will be a new design based on the CR linkage.
All the dealerships will get one at first, then in a month they will start getitng more, based upon 400ex sales.

We also got our order acknowledgement at our shop a few days ago. Even though I'm 2nd on the list, I was kinda disappointed to see that the 1st one isn't coming in Dec. Now the first two will be here in Jan. so I won't have much time to decide if I'm going to take it or not...

I am getting the first one that comes into the local dealer. I am in Iowa, and still have heard December...however, it was mentioned to me that they may get them in late November...this would be great, an early, early Christmas present for me...but regardless, I fully expect for the 4 that my dealer is getting to be in around the same time in December.

That sucks to have to pay for a air box cover and spark arrestor. No one is going to use these items. It goes to show you that Yamahas GYT-R line is light years ahead.

Mine is paid for and I get the first one, yippee! I was told first part of Dec. On another note to ATC83, c'mon, do you really feel that Yamaha is "light years" ahead of Honda, You've got to be kidding! You seem bitter about the fact that some people really like the Honda product. What's up with that? I understand that you really like your YFZ and that's cool but ,at least rtyfz450,who seems pretty pleased with his also, has an open mind about things. OK,I'm done,go have fun

yeah yahama is light years ahead of honda in the replacment parts they are way out of line area and service that needs to be performed. that's about it . whats nice about the honda is that you will beable to race and just trash on a honda bring it home wash it change the oil fill it up with gas and be ready for the next ride. as for the yamaha well everyone knows that yamaha stands for yam haulen it back to the dealer for warrenty work
