They're pissing me off is what they're doing! lol

As some of you may or may not know I'm a salesmanager at a Honda/Kawasaki/Yamaha dealership. I went to the Honda Dealer Show in Sept of 2007. They unveil a new CBR1000RR due to be in our showrooms in March. Very nice bike. So I go upto one of the Honda brass and ask how much it weighs and the horsepower. He looks at me and says "we don't know". "You don't know?", I ask. Isn't that the ****ing bike right there? That's not a mirage is it? How the hell do you not know how much it weighs or the HP? He says, "well we're waiting to see what the competion has before we say. Even more puzzled, I ask "are you planning on redesigning it before it hit our floors in 5 months"? The guy says no, not enough time. So I say, "then what difference does it make you can't change anything, the weight is what it is and the HP is what it is, might as well let us know". BTW- I really hate Honda. What an arrogant, pain in the ass company to work with. There dealer support is horrible.
now that is funny-> i haven't laughed that hard in awhile.
