To add a couple more details into the mix, even though I had looked the bike over, before signing, I only noticed the scratch at delivery, when all was done. I imediately mentioned it, and upon checking on the price on the new can, they decided not to order one, and to wait for a new bike to come in to swap it. After they swapped the mufflers, the '14 CB was back on the show room perfectly lined up between other bikes. They are not warrantying this thing. As the sales manager said:"the buyer of this bike might not care at all about the scratch". However we rationalize it, that is still a brand new bike on the floor with a used muffler from a previous year bike. The question is, would you like this to be your bike? This dealer won't even discount the bike (except for Honda incentive), for nothing, since they are getting hard to get. There may still be plenty, but they are only so many. Who knows, if the new owner notices s/he might get $100 off the price for taking it as is...
