Default RE: Stage 1 upgrade problem

Hello,
I had the stage one done, was not satisfied, took it back, they said it was ok, still not satisfied. That's when I took it to the pwerformance shop, and they did a great job. Very satified with their work. Problem is now that the bike runs good, if I go back to the dealer, all I can do is say your work sucks, and someone else fixed the problems you created in my bike. It seems , from this forum, that I am not the only one with this problem.
Any thoughts?
thanks

I'd go to the dealer, ask to talk to the man in charge...owner, and tell him what you had to do to get it fixed correctly, then ask for reimbursement for the amount you paid for the "outside" service. Of course, he'll say "no way", but at least you've demonstrated that shoddy work is unacceptable and he'll know that your "word of mouth" referrals to the other guys will hurt his business unless they treat customers like yourself a little better!
