Gary, I know you trade bikes every year,,, maybe you'll have 2 trades this year.

Yeah, I know,,, not much consolation,,, At least you have the ways and means to do it. Many wouldn't be able to 'address' it in that manner...

Heck, I don't even have mine yet and we already have 'trade it in / take it back' conversations started,,,

I don't have any realistic way to cheer folks up about this issue, but with a company as huge as Honda, on an issue like this, it will take a long, long time to see 'fruits of your labor' on anything greater than a case by case basis. (I work in Warranty Services for a commercial building manufacturer, believe me,,, its very s l o w ,,,,)

Not sure if it helps, but don't lose faith if results are slower than mud,,, Just keep on reminding / updating folks who'll listen that might be able to help and keep your sanity.
