Are they here yet?

called my dealer Hall's in Springfield il. he's not sure if mine will be the 26th.if not maybe a week later. had red one ordered since dec. trading a796 monster in. getting antsy.
 
Talked to my dealer again today. It looks like he will have just one Hypermotard standard in Red for the premiere event and that bike will be his demo. He's hoping that my Hyperstrada in white that I ordered back in November will be here the following week.
 
I'm registered for a test ride on the 27th. Gonna take the Diavel for a spin, too.

Beware the Diavel in Sport mode. Had a firm grip on the bars and the thing nearly yanked my arms off pulling away from a stoplight...they formed that seat as a huge scoop for a reason! Sounds like a good day at the dealer, have fun
 
Just got an email from my dealer. There are 3 containers of Hyper's floating this way. The first contains the dealer demos and will arrive by the 26th for the unveiling. The second container will show up a week later and contains thoses that have money down on the bikes. So he is figuring the first week of May. I am guessing the third container will show up the next week.

That's pretty much the same story my dealer is alluding to.
 
Turns out I'll be demo'ing a Strada (hope it's white), not a Motard next Sat. Also confirmed that my butt will be the only one to touch my saddle, aside from about 8 miles dealer tuning/setup.
 
Yup...things seem to be changing every day. It appears that my White HS will be here by next Friday the 26th. Possibly even a couple days before that. WhooooWhoooo!
 
No word here in SoCal

I have heard nothing form Moto Forza here in So Cal. They said they would send a note. My last stop there they told me probably late April but hard to say with containers coming, customs etc. They indicated I might get a note when things are a week out since they can be certain at that time not wanting to give me dates that might not be right.
 
Just got an email from corporate...

"Meet the New Hypermotard: April 26
Join us as we welcome the bold New Hypermotard to the Ducati family! Ducati Dealerships across the USA are hosting the official North America Hypermotard Dealership Premiere on Friday, April 26. This evening is sure to be incredible and full of thrills! See you there."
 
Yep. Got that too. Man, this site is gonna blow up in a couple weeks when the US buys start lighting off!
 
I reveived the same info from my dealer. It appears my bike will arrive before the end of April. I have already ordered the larger windshield. I am considering the heated grips. Cannot wait!
 
well I just spoke with ducati of miami and they told me mid may.. Im really starting to lose my patience here. I think Im gonna schedule a test ride in a KTM STM and see how much i like it.
 
@Mibanez3-Did you by chance put money down on the bike? The first container to arrive has all the Demo bikes for the 26th unveiling. The second container has the presold bikes which are to show up the first week of May. The third container has the dealer stock in it and is probably a week after the second container. Have you checked in with any of the other local Ducati dealers?
 
I put down $2000 on a white hyper on february 20th. And i was supposed to get the first one. I guess on monday ill be calling a different dealer to see what they have to say. Thanx for the advice
 
Ready to rock

I sold my '04 Bonnie today, I'm hoping for the Hstrada first week in May.

It is crazy, this whole not knowing for sure when bikes are coming. I placed my order on Nov 18th, and have been paying my dealer steadily and have now paid almost $8,000. I figured I was possibly the first person to pre-order and that I would be at the top of the list. It does look like I may have my bike by the 26th, however my dealer said there still is no guarantee. He won't know until the truck shows up with it. Keeping my fingers crossed. Either way, it "should" be no longer than 2 more weeks.
