EDIT: I see now that no matter what zip code I used in Broward County, delivery is not an option. If I use a Miami-Dade zip code, delivery is an option. Looks like I will soon be told that my delivery was cancelled. I'm not paying a dealer fee out of principal. I guess I'll be passing on this unless I want to take 3 buses and a local train furthur down into Miami to a dealer without fees.
These things are a non issue on the vast majority of roads if you know how to ride, especially with gravel width tires at a lower pressure. The tread isn't really important in terms of comfort, it's the tire width and being able to run lower pressures that makes a dedicated gravel tire significant (especially if you run it tubeless). One of the benefits of running a 45mm and beyond tire is that it smooths out rough roads without adding weight, complexity, or losing rigidity with a shock.
But my objection to the initial comment that I responded to is that it suggests that lacking suspension is cheapening or cost cutting or whatever. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a bike lacking suspension and frankly, I prefer a rigid fork and no shocks on anything other than a dedicated mountain bike (which the Wabash is not); there may very well be some roads that are so bad that a mountain bike is justified and perhaps that's how it is where you live. But my point was to pay no attention to the person implying this isn't a good bike because it lacks suspension, that's nonsense, and anyone who cares about having suspension wouldn't be looking at this model to begin with.

I ordered Sunday afternoon (crosscores) and received shipping email Tuesday night.

In Chrome, go to your order details page on Yamaha website.
Open Developer Mode (3 dots > More Tools > Developer Tools), you should get a console and the Yahama website side-by-side.
On the top of the developer console, click Network (it's part of Elements, Console, Recorder, etc on the top).
After clicking Network, reload your Order Details website again and you should start seeing elements pop up in the console.
Click the filter text box and filter by Tracking, you should see 2 entries.
Click on the one with the Fetch Type and you should see the preview window for this object.
Click the triangles next to Data > shippingGroups > 0 > trackingInfo > 0
All your tracking info should be under that last 0.

Agree with you that removing the suspension also has advantages and is no way cheapening the bike. Its a preference like the drop vs flat bar. That other commenter is oblivious similar to those who keep saying the motor is too small next to their 1000w inefficient hub bike.

In the end a higher end crossfire would have been nice, but not an option (wish I could just convert the Moro into a good commuter, but mount points and limited rear rack kills that)

Looks like I will soon be told that my delivery was cancelled. I'm not paying a $138 dealer fee out of principal. It was originally just the $15 recycling fee.
