Have these hit any dealer floors yet? I know I heard November, but was just wondering what people were being told by there dealers on when they would be here?

Lou, let me know what Weston thinks. Thinking of putting a down payment to hold one. Time for a new bike but a little hesitant.

Also, you guys coming to the desert anytime soon to ride AJ's track. He fixed it up nice this past weekend. Basically a replica of Atlanta SX last year.

I personally am not lining up to ride that 250lb behemoth. I'm really disappointed that it's so damned heavy.

Long live the lightweight 2 stroke! Tongue

Hey TerryK, did you play wait-n-see when the original monoshock YZs came out? Laughing

So what all kind of prices have the dealers been telling you will be paying for one of the over weight ticking time bombs. Also good luck getting one before Dec. Basing off MSRP being eight grand this must be a must have for item for all of those upcoming pros. I mean eight grand thats a nice down payment on a new car or hell even a complete pay off for a used car. Hmm so by the time the year is up, and after one motor rebuild, because it is a new bike and there will be problems with it, you will have an 1/8th ton $10,000 Yamadog. It is for sure one of the most innovative bikes out there, unless you forget about the Cannonade, OW 125 and the Mugen 125, all the while pricing itself and the sport way out of the average persons market. But I'm sure little Timmy will have 10 by the end of his Loretta championship run in the C class. I think I will get mine ASAP and get locked into one of those variable rate interest plans or I'll just keep mixing my gas.

Why is everyone so angry? If the bikes not for you its not for... if someone else wants it let them be.

LMAO at all these new 450's.
Wildbills post is the most accurate statement I've read here ever.
$8000 in US, in Oz we'll be paying around $12000 for one of these bad boys, and the exchange rates are sitting around $A0.92/$US.
You guys can have them.
245lb's? I still dont understand why anyone would want one, unless you're a fatass.

In Jan the Aus dollar is tipped to be with the US dollar one for one and are hinting @ $1AUS will get ya $1.10US
Should be interesting to see what the dealers do then. I bet they don't reduce prices then they have the balls to bitch and moan about people shopping OS on the Internet

You will only feel the weight when you put in on a stand........and that's why I use a Risk Racing stand!

I was told by someone who rode the new YZ450F at Buds that you should forget about the weight as when you ride it that thought will quickly disappear. He also said this bike will re write the way a MX bike handles......its that good. That reminds me I think his Eastern Dirt article is suppose the be released today!

A friend of mine put his deposit down awhile back and he told me that the dealer told him mid November. We will see if that holds or not.

It's only $33.06 per pound, not bad for precious metals.

It's funny that you all mention weight. I went from a 125 to an '09 YZ450F and you can't even feel the weight difference.

For those of you getting one, that is great. I want one myself real bad and have to see if it will work with my budget. For those of you that feel like you need to post negative crap because someone is pumped about getting one of the most exciting bikes to come out of Japan in recent memory, either you are jealous because you can't afford one or your just an ass. Why rain on someone else's parade. Get a life.
