I am not sure about the type, it could have to do with different country
laws, such as always having the lights on (Japan), bigger mud guards on
the rear wheel (Germany and Austria) etc.
Some details about different models you can find here:

But as far as the guarantee is concerned, I think that it is a world
wide guarantee, and as long as this guy is an official dealer he can't
make guarantee policy. I Honda says this bike has officially a one (or
is it two?) years guarantee, he has got to comply. For example, I know a
guy who bought his Honda in Italy, did the first service in Germany, and
then came to Greece, and if he had any problems (which he didn't of
course) he wouldn't have any problem from the greek dealer.
If this isn't the case, find the official dealer, and get the bike from
there.
If he is the official dealer and still refuses to give you the guarantee
maybe you should threaten him to contact Honda Europe, or Honda Japan
and if he still refuses do so.
Good luck.
