[QUOTE="otrfjr, post: 253637, member: 4661"] They tried to pull the "normal wear item" shit with me too. My dealership & customer rep refused to acknowledge the problem as well. I know, sounds like hog heaven for conspiracy theorists, but they should feel obligated to issue a service bulletin at the very least. Keep working them: be an asshole and keep mentioning the other documented cases. They will break down & offer a "one-time goodwill offer"--which is anything but imho--to cover under the warranty. In addition to what little grassroots momentum we can generate, I'm going to try to enlist a former Yamaha superbike champ who's the brother-in-law of a neighbor to get news to the Yammie execs that this is going on. Don't know if he'll cooperate, but if we can work both ends to let them know that this is bullshit, the better off we are. It's a bit like "The Big Lebowski": we have to draw a line in the sand to stop this unchecked aggression. & if it doesn't work, we can always go bowling. [/QUOTE]
