I don't disagree. Just pointing out that Honda isn't as innovative as they might claim to be and they're dangerously close to that old stereotype of the Japanese always copying American ideas, even the bad ones.

French press?  I have a couple friends that might be interested in getting a bike if a french press was part of the deal.

Seems someone at Honda forgot about the overwhelming success of the DN-01... :o
