Maybe this would be the answer, It would help all owners and prospective owners to have confidence in the bike and a sure understanding that it will get fixed........... what a coo for Honda if they did that.... Can you imagine the annoucment....... Honda announces that all 08 RR will get one year added to there warranty we want our customers to know if they buy an new or used 08 and it has smoking problem we will stand behind it. that is why we have decided to take the unpecednted move to extend the warranty at no charge for an additional year...... ..... ..........I realy want to ask ..what do you think?
Should Honda Just Extend The Warranty On all 08 RRs

There is already a "secret" recall in place for this issue and if your dealer is a real Honda dealer they will take care of it for you if you really have the problem...
That has been my experience on secret recalls with car manufaturers too...you just have to know that the recall exists...they aren't ever going to volunteer the info...
Many cars have had paint issues through the years and you had 6 years to make your claim if you knew about it... I missed one by 6 months on my previous van.
The key is that most people won't even know they have an issue and will just keep their oil topped up without a second thought...high performance bike...must use more oil will be their assumption.
Even though there are a lot of us online, we represent a small minority of actual owners of the '08 bike...so we have an advantage...

that law is not nation wide it is only in a few states, start a thread about it you will see almost no one really undestands it or knows about it, dealers in Texas are not even aware of it............Im glad its on the books in California the rest of us arent that lucky.
why do you say that captain? do you not want to see that......or do you think Honda wont let that happen.........saying "never Happen" is sitting on the fence........would you like to see it happen if it were possible?.....and anything is if enough people want it to be.

He's just being realistic. Honda will not extend any warranty because there is no business reason for them to do so.
