scratch on wheel
just noticed when dealer replaced my bad front tire thet put scratchs about every 12 inchs around the rim WTF,this is why i hate any of these dimwits working on my stuff.i took my own wheel off so they could't *** up the bike and they still got the wheel
Sounds like the jaws of the tire machine gotcha. I'd expect them to be replacing the wheel if it was mine.
This one of many reasons I change my own tires. I had a flat repaired out on the road once several years ago, at a Harley Dealer, with a result the same as yours.

If they are only surface scratches, they can possibly be polished out. I polished out a lot of clear coat type scratches on a SG wheel. Not that difficult. Of course, it's sad that you have to do it when it's their mistake.
Take it back, demand a new wheel.
My dealer is constantly sending emails to support the dealer, but they do dumb things everytime I have taken my bike in which has been twice in 5 year. Dented my front fender by dropping a wrench on it and failing to tell me about it until I showed them - the bike had 200 miles on it. The other time they miss adjusted the handlebars to make a mirror fit to the poit I could not reach the bars.
So I do most of the work on my bike. If not I take it to a indy.

If you left without inspecting it,thats kinda bad on your part. Now they have a question against your word. Never leave without going over everything,alot of the pissing and moaning on here could be put to rest by doing so. When I worked at auto dealerships I went over the car with the customers every time to cover my ***.
yea,i didn't have my glasses with me and then got caught up taking with 2 buddies i seen there,it is my fault no not looking close enough, it seems the older i get the stupider i become.
