How easy was that.... they are not pushy.... they are helpful.... they are nice.... they will only talk as much as you ask them to....

Does he know that you're now unlicenced/ disqualified? His database sure wouldn't.
And it's so much more convienient for Honda Japan to carry the insurance, they don't have to worry about all the nit picky things that normal insurance companies require. Like $2500.00 excesses.
Who do you think should pay that when the odd demo gets dropped?
