Thread starter

I was at the nearby Honda dealer on Saturday to buy oil, when I witnessed four of the employees arguing. Turns out, someone brought in a 2014 CB1100 (black of course in the US) on trade with just a bit over 100 miles on it, and a small riot had broken out over which one of the employees would get to buy it. They were all young guys and one was the assistant service manager. I mean they weren't cussing or coming to blows, but it was a sincere discussion over who should get first crack at it. I found it interesting since they were all under 30.

hey, i'm not so old, and i jumped all over the CB11. it's an amazing bike for the rock bottom price they're going for. i think older folks were the only ones willing to pay full price for them is all.

The mechanics at my dealership fight over who gets to do the inspection ride.

After mechanics at a dealer have worked in a bike, they take it for a ride to check it out and make sure everything’s OK.

Great story, jitaylor.
