Default Check Out My New Top!!!

As some of you might know, about a month ago, my bracket broke, and with me not knowing what it would do, still lowered my top. It make a nice 1 in tear in the top. Afraid that Honda was going to slap me around, i drove to West Broad Honda, waiting for the bad news.

Upon arrival, Scott, my usual service rep, looked at it, consulted with some of the other techs, called in the mechanics, and decided they were going to order me a new top and bracket. I was very happy.

I spoke with a fellow member previously about the top, and he suggested that i try to get Honda to get me the Suzuka Blue top from Japan. So, i called Scott back, asking if that was possible. He said he will check on it. He calls me back a few hours later, telling me that in fact, it is possible. The Blue top was 200 less than the standard black top. So he went and ordered one from Japan.

Well, the other day, was when it arrived, after 3 weeks. Scott had it installed at an offsite place, and now, i am the happy/proud owner of the only Suzuka Blue with Blue Top here in Richmond, and possible Mid-Atlantic Region!!! YAY!!...

well, a good story is nothing without pictures, so here they are...
