I somewhat agree with you and I hope the guy finds some satisfaction with Honda's extended warranty...My impression is that most of the time folks, with these types of claims, don't have 120,000 miles on a fairly new bike. Honda is most likely playing the "what are the odds game" and really don't want to pay for the repairs/parts.. Perhaps both Honda and the owner can come to terms satisfactory to both soon so the guy can get his bike back on the road in good shape...Regards and ride safe...
