Jeezalou... I feel so violated. My 14 dlx is already out of warranty. I wonder how Honda justifies giving some parts of the world longer warranties than other parts of the world?
Is it possible that there are laws in these countries requiring longer warranties on vehicles?
My Moto Guzzi and Triumph came with two years, unlimited miles warranty. I cannot understand why Honda offers only one year on most bikes.
BMW I believe is still three years in the USA
A motorcycle gets bought and its usually that persons pride and joy and gets well taken care of, and they only give a 1-3 warranty depending on which bike. But you can buy a Honda lawnmower, a product that most abuse and neglect and they offer as long as a 6 year warranty... Go figure
On a Honda survey I commented that the warranty was not long enough. I guess they didn't care what I thought

hmmm that's a thought..
for home only use, I'd imagine that a lawnmower would be started and run at most once a week.
Over 6 years that's roughly 6 * 50 or 300 times plus change.
A commute duty motorcycle might be run 2 times a day, so over one year about 5 * 50 or 250 times plus change.
sort of close 6 years lawnmower to 1 year commute motorcycle...
My 2013 Honda F6B has a three year warranty just like all the Goldwing models. I suspect that's considerd when the MSRP is set. CB 1100 price point is lower, aligns with the shorter warranty. I wonder if MSRP for CB 1100 is higher in the markets where there is a longer warranty.
