If I can ask- Where did you order your bags? Are they primed/painted, special order? Just looking into winter projects and interested in options. Thank you

Sat at the dealer for 3 hours for them to perform an hour job because they ordered the wrong part and had to take it off a new bike. And the part took 3 weeks to get in in the first place. What a load of crap. Time to go to a different dealer for warranty work!!!

Sorry for your trouble!

But you might want to stick with that dealer... more than couple around here would never take a part off a new bike on the floor for warranty work on one they've already sold.

Agreed! Anyone can make a mistake. It's rare that a dealer will disable a sellable unit to help out a service customer - warranty or not.

Dropped it off at the dealership to have them investigate a rattle/clacking sound coming from inside the primary cover in the area where the compensator is. Hoping it's a quick fix.
