Title: Delays aren't a suprise but not the best either
Post by: NEW2elec on April 09, 2022, 09:47:14 PM

So we've gotten some updated news that isn't the best but it is what it is.  Between the factory build supply issues and good old covid delays, things are pushed back a bit.

They are now looking at the earliest deliveries in 2023 and mine was pushed back to early 2023 instead of the original late 2022 date.

Anyone ordering now will have a 2024 date with all 2023s sold out.

The test rides should start in the fall of this year if all goes well.

They are also looking to open some Damon stores at some point in 2023.  No further details at this time.

It looks like they will be at some shows in the future with Fully Charged Live looking to do a Vancouver show in 2023 sometime.

I hope no one will by financing a new motorcycle during the next few years. The way both inflation and loan rates are going up right now it is going to really hurt the old pocketbook.  :(

What about my PM?
It was funnier because there is a bit of sad truth to it.  :)

You should definitely make it public and that way you can be rightfully crowned as KOMEDY KING. Because the link you posted was both topical and humorous you are quite possibly the sharpest of the sharp wits of which I've entangled. So yes, please post so the public can also enjoy your razor-sharp wit.

That clip captured his biggest moment of glory.
Not too many companies can claim their leader/owner is willing to dive into a table from 20-30 feet in the air.
It's an undervalued management trait.

Saving cash to watch  it go down in value fast isn't much better!
