Sorry to hear this dawg, I was at my dealer today, they were packed, could not get my bike in to get the starter fixed, will have to wait til tomorrow. I was happy to wait as I know they have been suffering with slow business, I do like my dealer and they are good. Maybe this is a sign things are picking up down here even though our unemployment and housing situation is as bad as it can be. Glad you have other source of income, use the time to come hang out in the sun or get more snowmobileing in.

Sorry to hear that Dawg. It is my experience that when one door closes another one opens.
