Your learning, which is good. I'm assuming that the VTEC in bikes and the VTEC is cars works the same way. Cause that guy is a bike salesman, which leads me to believe the guys that are in sales don't know anything about the cars/bikes they sell.

you should have heard the Mitsu guys feeding us lines of BS when we were shopping for the Evo. it was pathetic. yet another reason Mitsu almost went under. the salesmen dont even know anything about the flagship model.
