[QUOTE="KtownFJR, post: 577572, member: 17720"] Stopped at my local dealer to make an appointment to get ignition switch recall performed. The service manager said they had the switch in stock and had done three already. I figured that this was good, should know how to do it by now. Brought the bike in the next week and they did it in a day. Everything looked good when I picked up the bike, (no dings in the tank, etc). When I got home I noticed that the brake line and wiring on the right side of the triple clamp were outside of the retaining hoop. I figured that I would just fix it myself. After I corrected that issue I decided that I would check the other wire routing with the diagrams in the service manual. The mechanic routed the new ignition switch wires incorrectly also. The result was that when the handle bars were turned right, the ignition wires were drawn very tight around the steering stem. They also reinstalled the heat shield under the tank wrong. My suggestion to everyone is to check the wire routing after this service. Make sure all the wiring is secure and not binding. Check with the manual if you have one. [/QUOTE]
