I'd be having a discussion with the service manager concerning the tire pressure.

I go to the same dealer as Taylor. I've had the discussion with the service mgr.; he looked at me like I had two heads. I try to never take my trike to them for service, what I can't do myself, I have a trusted indy do.

+1 One of my club brothers recently took me down and introduced me to William and Fuzzy at BronxBill's indy.

I owe BronxBill a beer for the referral.
