Didn't the Australian market get this same bike in the same color earlier than the US market?
What I see as happening is that there will be "editions" of this bike brought to the US as the remaining supplies dry up and demand is created. No need for Honda to bring more to the states when it seems to me, at least, their is a tiny market for this type bike. Although the counter argument can be had that Triumph, Moto Guzzi, and Ducati are making good go of it in this "Modern Classic" class as Triumph calls it. I see the US skipped for 2014 and it brought back for 2015.
