Order # HAHAHAHA...
If you've checked threads from previous years, etc...you will understand that inevitably the person who needs or wants the bike the most will receive it last...
the person that that doesn't need it all (say a dealer for example who ordered under false pretenses) will end up with the bike first - before any of yous guys.
It is unfair and is a process that generates alot of ill-will toward Yamaha when people discover that they received their bike MONTHS after a slimy dealer did.
Atleast, the bikes are promised for spring (ha-ha) delivery and not July/August (read: September/October).
The honestly good thing about PDP is that it enabled us 'mericans to get a world class sports tourer that previously was only available in europe. Other than that - it sucks big time.
Of course, I knew nothing of this PDP until I started viewing the FJR websites in JAN '04. Which was after I purchased an '04 FJR on October 4, 2004 - the SAME DAY that I walked into a Chicago area dealer and asked about it.
Have fun waiting y'all. And make sure you keep track of that order number
:haha:
...And in case this post sounds mean-spirited,
congrats on YOUR decision to purchase a truly world class bike.
...shiny side up!
