Yes for now. I want to ceramic coat the bike first and I am also waiting on my GPS tracker etc. Bike theft is a massive problem in Dublin.
I am definitely the first one in the ROI. I hope that changes soon, would be nice to see more of these beauties on the roads.

Brilliant, enjoy.
There is a running in limiter for definite. Press bikes are being delivered pre-run in...the MCN bike had about 450miles on it when delivered...it now has 1450 after 5 days.

Thank you!
Yes, it's limited to 9k RPM for the first 1000km. But the redline also changes based on engine temp. Right now, the bike is cold and the redline starts at 4k RPM (does not mean it's limited to 4k though), once the engine is a bit warmer, it changes back to the actual redline. Bit of a 'please be nice to me while I am getting up to operating temperature'

My scheduled delivery date was 1st week in July (last checked 2 weeks ago). Spoke to my dealer this morning to get an update and, to my horror, found out it's been moved out to October! He said he would look into it and phone me back....
Just had a call and he said all of his orders have been pushed back and it is "nationwide". It may take a couple of days to get clarification from BMW. Anybody else been given bad news???

I was a bike cafe yesterday and BMW Chandlers Brighton had a load of bike and the new Gen 4. I had a quick look around the bike - not to my fancy to be honest, only the screen looks sexy... not a fan of the integrated mirror/lights or the rear indicators/brake lights.... I was offered a ride, but it would have been a limited 30 minute ride with someone leading.... passed on the offer..
Anyhow, i said i knew a few people who had ordered but due to the delivery dates constantly being moved, people have cancelled ordered... he said it was due to the lack of quality carbon for the wheels that is causing the delay....??

It won't be a lack of carbon in my case, my order is not an m sport.
That does suck if it's changed in the last 2 weeks as it seemed like all the bad news had been delivered previously.
When did you order out of interest?
I ordered in March.

he said the non- M Sport are a couple of weeks lead time.... but who knows when the wind changes again.... May be worth asking a few dealers...? (which you probably already done)
I was told off a dealer 2 months ago oct / nov at the earliest , this seems an absolute joke.
