I just talked to my dealer today who said that he talked to the Honda rep and that it's coming next week! It's gonna come earlier than expected! I get the first one at my dealership. I can't wait. Maybe you guys should call your dealer and find out if they got the news too.

I went in there to buy some new gloves and to look around and the head sales manager called me over to tell me that he just heard from the Honda Rep that they have been shipped and that I should get it next week. I asked him when he heard this and he said "this morning". I have no reason to not believe him. I will be at their doorstep on Monday morning to find out more. I'd be calling your dealer on Monday too.

I haven't rode either one. I just got to check it out at an indoor race. Felt kind of like like sitting on a stock 400 but the tank is narrower where your legs go. The footpegs are a little wider. And pulling in the brakes felt like stainless lines on a ex. The clutch pull was pretty stiff but I think that quad has been around some. Its one of Farr's quads that have been getting passed around to diffrent manufacturers so they can make parts.
