Mine along with 23 others are on a Boat from Japan as we speak, Hope it will be in the UK at the end of the month,
then we have a wait for a special test we need here as the bike is not an official import but a personal import..
could be a 2 month wait after it arrives:::red tape stinks:

You'd think there would be a little less red tape, now that you're free from the clutches of the EU.

Strange almost cult following of these it seems? Most of us appear to be older and have been in love with the design for most of our lives? Literally a hen's tooth to find right now but they are coming in everyday all over the country but not in large quantities. Did anyone confirm that dealers get only one in the first shipment batch? Glad I live in north Alabama where real dirt bikes and ATVs are the norm so was able to snap up the two that I got within a week of calling the two dealers who didn't know shipping status until just before they showed up on the truck? There is just something about them, not sure they are cute, or what? Think its the versatility and reliability for me? A go anywhere, anytime for sure economical mode of transportation that takes me back to my younger days?
$5100 out the door for my two, about $1000 adders each in delivery cost added to price, included dock fee, taxes and dealer prep ($400 standard up charge for all bike delivery for this dealer, in the case of the CT125 was to put mirrors on and connect battery?)

I am curious the age of the people wanting / waiting for this icon trail bike. I am mid 60s seen and wanted one since early 1970s when a neighbor had one.

I'm 64, the first bike rode was a neighbors CT90, over the years I've owned two CT90's and two CT110's . I love these things.

Here in NorCal, after speaking with multiple honda dealers in the region, I cannot get a definitive outlook on availability.

Basically they has no visibility to ANY inbound-future supply.

Yesterday, i spoke to Powersports cust support. They could not provide and supply outlook.

STRANGE!

MFG ans supply chain mgt is a core competency for Honda...

Thank you for the Norcal update! It's unfortunate to learn though. I've been patiently waiting for a couple months already and it's going to be my first motorized bike (@24yrs) but the wait hasn't been too dreadful and has given me a chance to learn more about the bike and day dream/plan the future rides and trips.

I was lucky as my Dad had motorcycles and my elder brother, so my dad cut down a BSA Bantam to fit me 👍
Never been off one from the age of 7 years..now 72...years young, there is definitely some thing about biking
that helps the little grey cells...

So I get an email this afternoon from the dealer in Roseville I bought my Talon from showing the Trail 125 for sale at MSRP. I call immediately. Salesguy says it's a display but I can come look at it and talk to him about it. Says he has 100 people wanting one and no idea when he's getting more. He said they did sell one for around $8000. Hell, I paid about $5300 all in including FL sales tax (a bit of an overpay compared to a lot of guys here) and just under $600 to ship it. They also have Talons at MSRP plus their various markups. I got mine for $20,000 OTD Just before covid blew up last Feb. There are no deals out there at this time. Just gotta keep looking and call every Honda dealer in the country until you get lucky.

I stopped at dealership today #4 out the door last week I am #6 with one ahead of me. I was told sell one order another sell order another. They said that is all they are allowed & how it works here.

Gainesville Motorsports in Gainesville Georgia just called me this morning. Said that my pre-order was wiped off their order sheet. I had put down a $500 deposit so I have to go get that back. Not sure what to do now 😕
