WE NEED TO CONTACT HONDA AND SEE WHAT IS UP. WE NEED TO CONTACT THEM AND EXPRESS OUR LOYALTY TO HONDA AND KISS A$$ IF NECESSARY TO SEE IF THEY WOULD ISSUE A RECALL.

Chill with the caps. It makes it hard to read.

 

KILLER , I HAVE EXPLAINED MY USE OF CAP'S TOO MANY TIMES AND I AM NOT USING THEM FOR SARCASM OR ANGER , PLEASE UNDERSTAND

 

Wasn't there already a recall on this?? They replaced something called a "shifter plate" on one of my bikes (the other bike is newer, and had the new part from the factory). Is this the same thing??

 

Is this also a problem on the 2002 model - which i intend to purchase this week?

 

I'm sure there was already a recall on this.

Why does the guy use caps all the time? It sure as hell does make it hard to read.

 

YZGUY, NO THE SHIFT PLATE WAS A SEPERATE ISSUE, BUT GLAD YOU ASKED THANKS,HONRAN01 NOW AS FOR NEWFIEBULLET I AM TRULY SORRY FOR ANY PROBLEM THAT THIS MISUNDERSTANDING WITH THE CAP'S THING CREATED, NOW YOU MADE ME FEEL BAD ---- . IF YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND MY REASON I'M SORRY BUT IF THE SHOE WAS ON THE OTHER FOOT I WOULD. YOU SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO USE GREATCANADIAN AS YOUR HANDLE, BECAUSE I KNOW SOME CANADIANS AND HAVE BEEN THERE AND DID NOT ENCOUNTER ANY BODY WITH THAT MUCH IGNORANCE!! SO IN CLOSING I WILL NOT POST WITH YOU ANY MORE UNTIL SOME OFYOU GROW UP. SOME OF YOU PEOPLE WERE A JOY TO CHAT WITH AND IT GOE'S TO SHOW YOU CAN RUN INTO MAROON'S ANY WHERE , NO I DID NOT SPELL THAT WORD WRONG MORON IS MORON AND MAROON IS MAROON SEE-- YA [

---------------------------------------------------------------------

HONRAN01, I KNOW YOU EXPLAINED THE CAPS THING BEFORE AND HAD GOOD REASON FOR THEM (JUST CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS). I DELETED THE CANADIANS MESSAGE AS HE HAD NOTHING USEFULL TO SAY AND WAS OBVIOUSLY ACTING VERY CHILDISH.

 

You type in caps cause there "big people letters" I hope that was a joke cause I cannot stop laughing about that, LOL [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
