Yep. I started my CB1100 fund in mid-November of last year, just after the announcement. At the time, the only timeline given was "Spring 2013". It wasn't until the bikes had arrived in the U.S. in mid-March that Honda announced general availability.

In this Honda is not alone but is a culprit.Take the launch of their
much heralded ALL New Cruiser which was expected to Totally
reinvent the Cruiser market.The launch of the 2001 VTX 1800.
The huge all new V-twin powerplant caused Harley to change
their philosophy with respect to the Cruiser market.The reason the
V-Rod even came out was in direct response to the VTX 1800.
I bought the all new VTX 1800 in Spring of 2001 as a 2002 model.
The launch was late.My Dealer had enough VTX buyers { no down
payment was allowed } waiting and asking like every week.
I'm thinking it was about a month late.Instead of march it wasn't
until April.Which seemed like eternity for guys with bike lust
coursing through their billybob veins.
