Tip of the hat to you gentlemen for being such good sports. Not only do you put your readers' interests first by alerting them to the story in a competing publication, but you even provide a link. Good show.
As to why the Euros get to ride it first, it's simple economics. Honda will sell tens of thousands of VFR's in Europe. Here, in the land of the cruiser, they will likekly prove slow sellers. The quicker Honda can get the word out to potential customers across the pond, the better the chances that people on their way to the Aprilia dealership will hesitate and maybe spend their hard-earned Euros on the Honda instead.
