when things don't work out blame the bike, the dealer, your Mother. Some guys wrench on their own and don't have a clue so pull things apart and then when reassembling them screw things up by not knowing the specs or just not knowing how it came apart or just flat out damage the part by not knowing how to take the part off. Be honest...I was at the dealer today listening to a guy try to tell the dealer that they screwed up in the Fall when the bike was serviced (oil change) and they scratched up the side of plastic but he hadn't noticed until now...he also stated that how he noticed was when he went to put on a cruise control unit. He insisted the dealer pay for the damanged side panel. He raised hell and the dealer just said he'd give him the standard discount to replace it but not new for free. Guy says that if that's all they'll do, they have him over a barrel but he'll never buy from them again. I call bullshit as I saw the part and if that had been done to my bike I would have noticed it right away as it was really damaged. I think he did it when attempting to install the cruise control although I guess anything is possible. In the dealers defense on one of my bikes they slightly chipped my gas tank told me about it and replaced it. Anyone else ever see this kind of BS when the guy doesn't take responsiblity for his mistake and wants to blame someone else? I think you can almost smell it as the story always stinks.
