I think anyone you trust your bike should be held to the same standards...My point was no one that posted didn't think it was a big deal...But if it was a dealership that did it the lynch mob would be out after the dealership...As far as 100% customer satisfaction... If you are in a retail business you will soon find out that there are some people that you can't satisfy no matter what.[/quote]

Totally agree. As we have seen before, customer satisfaction, is the keystone to any successful business. Without it the business will and should fail.

Bro, you got hosed. Find another mechanic/shop. Clutch adjustment problem pure and simple. No need for a stock bike with low miles to need a stronger clutch spring, tuner or not. Semper Fi.
