Default ? about honda research and devlopment

has any of you ever have hondas research and devlopment team look at your quad? a couple months ago my dealer called me and wanted me to bring my rancher 420 in to the shop so honda researh and devlopment could loook at it and see how it was holding up they even did my first service for free .
Then the other day they called me and wanted to know if they could come to my house and see where and how i ride and use my rancher they are coming sunday and are going to pay me $250 dollars just for about 2 Hrs.

Iwonder if it is because the rancher 420 are new or what

has this happend to any one else

I've never heard about that, but I suppose it wouldn't surprise me.

I'd just about pay them to give a Honda executive a piece of my mind.

I bet I could convince them to build a 750 EFI with IRS, locker, low range, and power steering...

I believe they still do a lot of the development in ohio. That is where their first auto plant in america was built and it is still there and up and running(not a union job in the place either, the union tried to get in but Honda gave the employees a great deal not to vote the union in)

The Gold Wings and most of Honda's big bikes are made in Marysville Ohio and they have a really large proving ground and track there also.

Funny how Hondas are often made in the US, and my Dodge isn't...
