[QUOTE="Capt. Bob, post: 322821, member: 2851"] Since this whole fiasco has been so interesting to me, I'm not surprised by my experience at my Yamaha dealer's shop today. While standing in line at the parts/service counter, waiting to pay for two (2) crush washers (changing rear end juice) my trusty cell phone vibrates. What happens next fits to a tee the reality of the world of motorcycles and us. Hello I say. Hello Mr. Berlin (don't know whether to feel respected or OLD) this is XYZ Yamaha calling. The parts you ordered are in. When can you come down so they can be installed? What parts are those I ask? Don't know, I 'd have to ask the Parts Manager. Well he's standing right next to you, go ahead and ask him I reply. Now for the classic response; "HUH" he says. By now the PM is laughing his ass off, grabs the young guy and points to me standing in line holding the phone. So..... I now have, much to my surprise another ECU residing in my 06 FJR. How I ended up getting something so quickly without saying a word is the sad thing. All I can say is, thanks again to everyone (you know who I mean) for the EFFORT and HARD WORK. [/QUOTE]
