A few people on ADVrider have reported they are at some dealers, and a few others have gotten theirs.

Do they even have this bike?
Pictures are manufacturer stock images.
Due to continued challenges across supplier networks as well as increasing logistics costs, product pricing, freight charges, specifications, and features are subject to change at any time without prior notice.
Text is from RE website as well(?)
Looks like dropshipping

That person(?) is only here to promote the links at the bottom of the post.

Posting links on a forum gives them a higher Google ranking.
So it is a sneaky way to promote a website that is otherwise lost in the bottom of the Google results.

Looks like Fremont has a physical store. I've emailed them, I'll let you know what they say about selection.

These folks looked at one in North Carolina, so at least a few are in-country.

So, how do I monetize this gig and tap into unimaginable wealth? At least some ball caps, right?

[TSTM]

OK, it's real.
Maybe they should spend some time redesigning their website

Still no appearance of the 450 in Canada, yet, as far as I can tell.

I checked with an Ontario outlet and the BC one where they continue to hold my deposit. In both cases, I keep hearing "end of the month". Been hearing that for a few months now. More than a little annoying, especially now that we're starting to get snow.

[dlapierre]

It finally showed up here in British Columbia. There's snow on the ground and the soils are freezing, and riding season is over in this part of the world but that's OK. I'll store in until spring on my shop with my other bikes. At least it is here.
