He also warned me that this was just a guess based on experience and that they can, and occasionally DO, show up much earlier... or much later. So... like I said... "for what it's worth"... which is very little. 
Having said that, I wonder if, due to a shorter riding season, some manufacturers ship to places like MN a bit later than others. Just a thought based on nothing whatsoever.
Quick Update...
I just got off the phone with the Sales Manager at my dealer and, according to him, my CB1100DLX is now scheduled to be shipped from Honda's warehouse on 4/8. So, if that date stands, I should have my DLX roughly this time next month. Gonna be a long month!
Another update...
Talked to the Sales Manager again this morning. Frustrating news. Apparently the ship date for my DLX has been pushed back a couple weeks. 4/21 now.

There was a black on black 2014 in the showroom at Concord (CA) Powersports this morning. 4 in to 1 exhaust. Beautiful.
