My dealer says I don't need to give him a deposit but the bike is definitely mine. If he tries to jack the price due to demand I'm out.. I'll pick up something else since I already sold my 450. My buddy has a 20 YZ450 with about 20 minutes on it for 8K.. Good enough for me..

Buy the GasGas Steve. Between you me and the lamppost I paid like $3700 less for my GasGas 450 than the $12,500 that I was quoted when we last spoke and I was going to get the WE that fizzled out pretty quickly when my dealer was told that he wasn't getting any until perhaps next yr. I rode a 21 Honda the other day at Central and I didn't like it. I feel the 20 Honda that I rode at NHMX last yr was a better bike. Just my humble opinion friend :-)
Man, for that price difference throw a Traxx and Cone’s on and call it a day!

I can’t believe people are willing to put down deposits months in advance with no real ETA and pay MSRP or more for a flawed bike that hasn’t done well in shootouts up to this point and will immediately require a remap. I get that it’s pretty, but geez. That red Kool-Aid is some potent stuff!

I have a similar opinion but with respect to the KX. Substandard chain guide, chain rollers and clutch. Broken muffler mounts and easy to strip bolt holes.
I have been nothing but fortunate with my 19 kx. No broken subframe mount and no strippled bolts. at about 80 hours on it now. It may have part to do with my OCD having fucked up so many bolt holes and stuff in the past hahah

I’ve been waiting too and I haven’t heard anything. My dealer did tell me they’re expected near the first of the year though. Might as well put skis on this thing now

Got a friend who visited the chaparral out in SoCal and he was told 4 WEs are arriving next week. Looks like it’s happening

Mines been on order since mid summer. I’ve been in contact with the dealership every two weeks. He told me everything is still on a few weeks back. Friday morning after thanksgiving he called all pissed off saying the Honda rep just called and told him to refund my deposit and that the order was canceled. Unfortunately according to the Honda rep , Honda was canceling over 150 WE orders.. Fortunately for me I had just located a unsold R very close to home. Ended up getting a really good deal over the phone and had the bike by the end of the day. It’s not the WE but I plan to make it close.. I’ve already ordered the Yoshi system and plan on sending the suspension out next week. I have a vortex from my sons 18 that I want to see if Twisted can remap. If not I will either reflash the stock ecu or buy a new vortex. I’d also like to mention that my 20 year old son sold his 18 crf450r and klx110 and saved on the side and bought the bike for me. Talk about Thanksgiving!!

Why is that bonkers? It’s a works edition that comes with 2k plus upgrades over a 10k bike. That includes taxes too

It's actually easily more than $2K in upgrades. I was going to upgrade an 18 R model & after seeing how much it was going cost. I ended up picking up a 20 WE model instead & came out saving some $.
