anyone heard any thing on the June shipment of bikes? The dealership called me yesterday to tell me my boxes were in, which got me all excited 'cause we had to play phone tag for a bit.

Just came from my dealer, my boxes are there as well. My bike has been pushed from "May" to "June". Whatever that means. I guess it just means my ST1100 will get more miles.

So far I'm told the third week in May still (I'm in Northern California), but it's on the boat already. The question is still, "when will the dealer have it?" I'm hoping not to hear of a delay, but it won't surprise me. And yet they originally told me May, so I can't be too impatient.

I'll continue to put the miles on my ST1100 as well.

Where are you guys getting this information from? My dealer has been less than forthcoming on delivery information such as this. However whenever I go there or call I am told "We are doing everything we can to get you your Super Tenere as fast as we can.

All my dealer can tell me is the expected month. He did say that once it hits the left coast he can give me the VIN.

My dealer in SoCal originally told me sometime in May. Heard two days ago that it is scheduled to be in the shop June 6. Said coming on ship from Japan through Long Beach harbor. The excitement is building!!!! :)

I'm confused. Some folks are currently riding 2014 STs and I know that at least one is riding one that wasn't pre-ordered. How is it that a few were shipped to the states early?

I don't understand how a small number have arrived and have been purchased while the majority of the country is waiting for "the shipment". What's the deal?

I got #144 a couple weeks ago so there are at least that many shipped early. I just kept looking at cycle trader at 'real' pics and not canned ones and called around as well. Some dealers don't have any cycle trader ads and the one where I eventually got one hadn't advertised it much if at all.

Does anyone in California have a 2014? If not, could it be emissions related?

there was a first shipment to dealers who already had them allocated to them or met some critera. my closest dealer doesn't know jack sheet about how to market anything but quads and sxs's so I put a deposit on one and am waiting until june. that's fine. more time to save up for farkles , besides i'dd rather a new bike than sit there and watch it from the window while it rains and snowed on it.

I just picked mine up in Petaluma last night. It's the only 2014 they've seen, and it was actually headed to another dealer. My dealer had to trade a couple of bikes to get it. And it never hit the showroom floor - from the delivery truck into my hands, basically.

Curiously, while Mellow's is #144, mine is #5. The difference being his is the standard model, mine is the ES.

When we were posting our VIN's as the first shipment of 2012's arrived in 2011, we found that the CA bikes had their own sequence numbers, so there could be the same last 3 digits on CA bikes and 49 state bikes.
