This is interesting. Seems a little "hokey" or "urban legend"-like, but what the heck do I know!!
I guess it's quick and free to try it out - so I will!
Thanks guys.

The more I think about it, you are right. It's not a bike that was traded in. The bike is brand new sitting on the floor with gas in the tank for maybe 8 months? (Whether or not the gas was replaced, it still sat with gas in the tank) Why would a dealer put gas in a bike that's going to be on the showroom floor? Did they prep the bike for a potential buyer or maybe someone took it on a test ride and then no one used it for months? Either way, it gives me serious doubts about using that dealership.

Another quick question guys. Can / will any local Honda dealer do factory warranty work on my new bike? IOW's, do I have to take it back to where it was purchased? There are a bunch of Honda dealers close here in Houston, I didn't buy a '14 DLX from any of them 'cuz they didn't have one to sell me!
Just curious, if the bike keeps sputtering after a few tankfuls, do I have to take it to the selling dealership, or can I go to one locally?
Any Honda dealer across the nation. The choice is yours.

I didn't know if I would get the "evil-eye" or less than stellar attention if I brought a bike in that wasn't purchased there . . . .

Actually. It IS up to the dealer.
