i just called today to see if i could get my bike. turns out everyone was right, theres no more 08's!!! i was pretty upset but then i said shit ill just get the 2009, which i havent seen yet haha. finally put down a deposit today and they say that the 09's will be on kawasaki's web page on the 20th of july. cant wait to get mine

 

[CSBrad]

Well that sucks

I have bin looking for a second bike. Since I have my black one set up for land speed racing. The dealer said wait a month and the 09's will be out.
I wounder what color they will have
Buy the way I won that auction for toh engine also 17"wheels for 10 bucks each

Im getting the last green 08. From a place in Nashville TN. I was promised an 08, but have been waiting since i put my deposit down back in may

 

[CSBrad]

I've only been waiting since June 4 but I'm suspicious about how much longer it's gonna take, since he said the end of June. Also, good to here DH let us know how the new engine works out

 

[Racer X]

I waited from September or October of 07 .And did not get my bike till Febuary of 08. So I don't know how long the wait will be but it will be worth it.

still havent gotten yours too?
i have been waiting he told me end of july it would prob be in....! hey do you think since theres no more 2008s than if there are people oni the 08 waiting list there going to give them 09s right? im second in line atm for a red ninja at my dealership or was second about 2 weeks ago prob still am if there is no more ninjas....

 

[StockWall]

Wow, I was lucky. Got mine 6 weeks ago. Waited 5 weeks to get it though. Good luck.

 

[DanJohns21]

i wanted an 08...dammit! first year it changes would have been cool , oh well!

 

[Treylem]

yea from what i was told, from my dealer anyway, that theres a "dealer meeting" on the 19-20th of july to set orders and all that stuff. so if you wanna get an 09 and get it as soon as it comes out go and lay down a deposit. it kinda sucks for me tho cuz i wanted a bike this year. and when they're set to come out is like september some time...aka ill have no time to ride cuz ill be out at college. hey fuck me right! i guess ill just have to wait till next spring

 

[DanJohns21]

i am on the list... 2nd in line for a red ninja pretty sure ill just be getting an 09

 

[CSBrad]

I talked to my dealer and here's the sitch.

Kawasaki is shipping out 80% of each dealers orders to them. After they have that done they will decide where to send what's left My dealer thinks he will get the rest of his order of 08's cause he only has two left. I hope so too, cause I'm first on the list.
Anyhoo, that's just the latest news I've heard.

Two weeks before I'll even know IF I'll get one at all! I don't know what I'm gonna do.... I don't wanna wait all that time and then be like oh f*ck... I STILL don't have a motorcycle to ride

I put my deposit down on 6/12 for a Blue one. My dealer was expecting 3 250rs by the end of June but just finally got a black one last week and a green one this past tuesday. So, mine should be here any day. Murphy's law, of course mine will be the last of the three to arrive! He offered my the green one that I guess was unspoken for but i'm not taking the Rider Course until June 22,23, 24 so I'm perfectly happy waiting it out a couple more weeks. He told me the bikes sometimes come in a few weeks late but assures me it will be here. If not, I guess I have no choice but to wait for an 09. That would give me more time to save some more $$$ tho. But I want my bike!!!

when did he expect this "last 20%" to be delivered?!! i cant get financed till end of this month corssing my fingers its not till than!

 

[CSBrad]

Two weeks, that's when they'll decide who gets what. He figures he'll get his last two that make up his 20%, but bigger dealers that have larger orders won't get all their bikes. Kawasaki really fucked us.

 

[DanJohns21]

2 weeks i see. hopefully iget mine than! that would work out perfect for me....!

umm so anyword from the dealer when they will be gettin the 09s?

 

[CSBrad]

September

 

[virtualmatrix258]

I'm paying full in cash, my dealer knows it because I've told him numerous times i'm paying in cash (i've saved alot lol) You think i'm screwed until the '09's? I actually wouldnt mind having an '09 but still i'd rather have my bike now.
