Manufacture date states 6/21 and the dealership states its a 2022, true or false ?

Well @Tommy180, welcome to the forum and congratulations on getting the cool new model.

Your answer is probably. The buzz around here is that the US did not get a 2021 model.

Examine the VIN. The 10th digit of the VIN is the model designation. If I did my homework correctly:

M 2021
N 2022

Is it "N" as we expect?

My 06 that I bought in February of 06 was manufactured in 05. Suzuki Inc. has skipped a model year for the Hayabusa name. Different countries can change it up too. My 79 CBX was made in 78 and it was the 5,079th one produced, considered an early model but still a 79. The Honda CBX for example here, ‘made‘ and sold from 79-82, in the UK and Germany were sold as 78s-81s.

Thanks for your time and support.

So in the automotive world anything made in the 6th month and beyond is considered the next year's model and I've found that at least the Japanese bikes in the U.S follow the same rule so yes like already said it is a 2022. This is also useful to know if you happen to be looking for parts as I've had customers order parts looking at the year marked inside the door of cars only to find out they got the wrong ones because they went off the year listed instead of the next year up
