Default Finally.... After 6 months
Just got back from the dealer. After 6 months of pain and anguish...Medusa is repaired. Complete from the ground up re-build, they are gonna keep her this week and give her some runs as well as make sure she is tuned correctly. I went up to check her out and she looks fantastic, I took some pics which I will post tomorrow ( at work right now) I should have her in my hands bright and early Saturday AM

Breathe and Ride!

Did they ever find the actual problem, or did they just rebuild it?
