I got that call too but after they found out I don't have at least 3000 miles on my bike, they told me I couldn't come.
I had no idea they had a "training facility" in NJ either. If you do go, please post your experience.

I got that call also. Meeting with them tomorrow at 5 pm. They will go over the bike and then give me $150.

The lady even texted me today to make sure I could make it.

They pay in cash. I got mine. They send a team from Japan.

How long did it take? What kind of training facility was it?

Not sure if you did the visit yet but the Japanese have a Protocol on gift giving. I use to do
Lots of work with the Japanese so here is my advise.

When they hand you your gift (assuming they will ) they will slightly bow in the process. Take it and do the same. Then don't just toss it in your bag or whatever. Stop, open it up and admire it. Thank them again. Trust me they will remember you as one of the few how knew their custom.

I got that call, too! Couldn't do it for two reasons: Bike doesn't have 3k miles, I have no vacation time left!
Let us know how it goes!

 

[dommie67]

They just called me back and decided I could come after all with less than 3000 miles. Going tomorrow at 6:00.

 

[James Carballo]

Less than an hour.

Less than an hour. Mine was at Broward Motorsports. They go over the bike. Connect to computer. Check fluids etc. photograph your mods etc.
