I was told not until next month. I put a deposit down but unfortunately i was too late and have to wait till the second order comes in which should be march latest april.
Which state are you in? Last year yamaha's website said delivery in Feb but we didn't get it until late march. I'm curious if the build date will be something earlier than jan.
I pre-ordered a 2016. My dealer told me they'd get in touch with me a month before they arrive so that we can get finances sorted out. I still haven't heard anything so my guess would be people will start receiving them late Feb at the earliest.
When i pre ordered mine I couldnt believe that the first batch was already pre ordered and I had to wait till the second order...sucks lol im impatient...
Mine was ordered in Nov, just checked today and dealer spoke to rep, looks like March delivery.
5 star dealers supposedly are higher in the pecking order for allocations, we'll see.
Yea I got told Next month from my dealer as well. he was hoping for NOV. that's when I ordered mine. My race bodywork is in already.
I also have Cat Delete here and a PC-V on the way. Once it shows up it will get flashed.
Thats awesome man. I have a bunch of parts on standy just waiting. The more I get for it the more impatient I will be. Who are you going to go through for the flash. I am probably going to go through SBU.
@JLeosnow will be assisting with my flash portion since he is local and his was dyno tuned through the flash by a very good local tuner. at least I think that is where i'm going to start.
Subscribing. Waiting on my 60th here in Massachusetts with a February ship date from the Yamaha order entry allotment screen. Stopped by the dealer on my Scrambler yesterday to see if there were any news. Nothing yet. I'll be interested to know when news of arrivals starts to pop.
Millers can give specific shipment status, if it's left Japan, docked at the port, etc. I would of ordered from them if I lived on the east coast but I ordered locally. Last year Canada got their r1 a week or so earlier than us.
I've been told this month but haven't received a VIN number yet so not sure if it's true or not. I leave for an army school down south and would like to take it with me to get some street miles on it before I race it. Can't do that if it hasn't shown up yet.
I was told by two different dealers that the first order is scheduled for this month and the next order for march/april but more around the march date. And this was only about two weeks ago.
Nothing we can do but wait I guess gonna look it over real good when it comes in thowe see if there's any signs it was taken apart and put back together might be a sight for me to wait another year who knows next they might recal the frame lol.paronoid I guess bad experience with a cbr1000rr?
So I just spoke with my dealer and he said he believes its just a rumor for the delay. He said looks like the first shipment is still scheduled for this month and usually if it was changed anything more then 30 days yamaha would tell the dealers. So fingers crossed they will be on time.
that's an assumption. I doubt they will be here that late into the year.
