Yes, I have already made a previous comment about waiting for the FJR 1300 to show up in (my garage) the States. The bike justs makes sense, look at the responses . I've tried to find someone over in Japan over the net who I could talk to but to no avail. The best I could do was talk to Heather, customer service rep. for American Yamaha Motor corp. 1-800-88-YAMAHA. Apparently, there have been many calls about the unavailable for the unseen future bike. I also told her about my commitment to Yamaha, others interest in the bike, and of course Mo's reader's responses. Steven or Stephen Kato is the president of Yamaha Motor corp. and has offices in Cal. and Japan. You could write to him in care of Yamaha Mtor corp. Po.box 6555 ,Katlla ave.,Cypress,Ca. 90630
