I'm ok with whining about the recalls. I'm even ok about whining about someone whining about the recalls. But you LoneRiderFLH, crossed the line whining about the guy whining about the guy whining about the recall.
LOL

Yeah I guess I'm just a whining primadona, and we should never vent, because that's a bad thing. I feel so ashamed. NOT! But one of my points was to give a heads up to the collective so it doesnt happen to someone else. If I was one of you who lived an hour or more from a dealer and had to make the trip to get the work done, I would want to ensure that the parts were there and waiting for me when I arrived.

Well I think that calling the MOCO and opening a ticket. Then stating that if you have any more problems with recall you are going to escalate it . Really is going over the top . I also believe that most people that know anything at all about the recall ( There have been many posted hear alone ) do call to make sure the parts are in stock. But as stated before most shops have more then 1 service writer more the one parts person . Also inventory dose not always match what's on the computer. Life is not perfect .Hope you get it taken care of .

Had mine done yesterday there was also the brake line recall that I hadn't gotten around to that was just a zip tie but they had to remove the tank but all in all took about an hour and 15 min went across the street had lunch that killed 45 minutes then some BS with the owner about the new road glide and how its still pretty ugly that killed the other 1/2 hour

I will give it up for my dealer. I live an hour away through rush hour traffic, the bike was not having any problems but was under the recall. They picked the bike up on a Friday (it rained all weekend) and delivered it back to me on Monday all fixed. It even goes into neutral much easier. Biker Bobs in Michigan did a good job.

Truly wasn't trying to be pissy and stamp my foot (love that comment btw, I can just picture me a 6ft tall 370lb guy stamping my foot in frustration) but I can see where my comment could be read that way. At least I gave some of you some possibly helpful info or at the least a decent laugh.
