Ok, both Yamaha dealers in my area have blue ones in stock. I didn't ask about any pricing info, just if they had any in stock.

First one is:

South Valley Motorsports
11553 S. State
Draper, UT 84020

801-576-1899, I spoke to a Bert.


Second one is

Plaza Cycle
1379 W 3300 S
Salt Lake City, UT 84119

801-972-8725, I spoke to a Dell.

At least you got rid of that squid-bait color scheme.

I really grew to dislike the raven color a lot. when i first saw it i loved it. t hats why i jumped all over it. but the more i looked at it everyday i really started to hate the flat black fairing. i was thinking about painting it gloss to match but knew i wanted the team blue more. my local dealer finally got ONE blue one in but they won't buge for shit on the price. they want $13,500 OTD. i told them to shove that price.... looks like i will be making a road trip to TN for the $9,694 one.
