Funny little story,
Honda's headquarters directs me to one of the larger Honda dealerships in Southern California for a possible warranty issue. I call up their service dept. and this is basically how the call goes.
Me: Hi, I would like to bring in a Honda DN-01 for an inspection.
Technician: Uhhh, what kind of bike?
Me: A 2009 Honda DN 01. Also known as a NSA700.
Tech: Um, what is that? Is it an import?
Me: Uh yeah ... it's made by HONDA, so it's an import!
Tech: What kind of bike again?
Me: (deep breath) a HONDA DN-01!
Tech: Hold on (covers phone with hand, muffled talking)
Tech: What year?
Me: 2009.
Tech: And it's a DN uhhhhhhhhhhh.
Me: A DN-01 or NSA700.
Tech: (covers phone again and more muffled talking).
Tech: Um ......... uhhhhhhh, (typing on keyboard like a mad man) I .........
I'm afraid we can't service that. We don't know what it is and have never seen one. You can bring it in though and we'll take a look at it.
Me: Hmm, Ok, I'll see what I can do.
Click. WOW! This dealership has been around for at least 40 years? Sure I'll bring my rare machine in for you to tare it apart. LOL!

I thought it was funny and had to share.
