Dealership ... OMG
Flat tire. Normally I change my tires myself but it was over 90F and I didn't feel I want to wrestle that tire in such a heat.
Yamaha is closed on Mondays (they have better pricing on tire job) so I went to Harley dealership.
Yup, first time in seven years I went to Harley to get a job done. Replace a tire ... simple, isn't it?
NOPE. When I got back home and had a closer look I discovered the tire was mounted wrong way! @#$%
How they stay in business? Who is paying their bills? Who is brave enough to leave their bike with those screwups?

No excuse for that from a dealership at all.
I would take it back and have them fix it but never go back again. If they screw up on such simple things there's no telling what happens when it gets complicated.

My bike is going into a dealer tomorrow for service and I have the highest confidence they know what they are doing and I will be well taken care of. Just sayin.

Oh, and it was 112 here today so quit your whining. Yes I rode in it and did just fine.
Hey whiney, why don't you suck a tennis ball through a 50' garden hose.
Seriously? Oh I see, a Viking fan. Never mind.

not sticking up for the dealer, but you shoulda checked it before you left. then you wouldn't have to go back and they could have fixed it right there on the spot......
i would say they owe you a t shirt or something for your trouble.
