[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 630876, member: 3828"] [cynical] They get "compensated" by Yamaha for the flat rate time to install the modification. They also get parts "relief", meaning the cost of the parts to the dealer. They do not get their standard shop labor rate, nor do they get their standard percentage parts markup. In other words, there is no profit in installing recalls. And if they have never done one before the amount of time to actually do it may be twice or more what is "allowed" in the recall. In that same amount of time the mechanic could be working on customer paid jobs at the standard profit margins. [/cynical] [/QUOTE]
