I left my bike at the dealer for a week to get the first maintenance done and when I picked it up it wouldn't start. The plugs were fouled. I had never had any trouble with it and it started up immediately after we cleaned them. Our best guess was that they fouled the plugs bringing the bike out every morning and taking it in every evening. Apparently they start the bike, ride it 25 feet (about 10 meters for the euros) and shut it down...twice a day. I'm guessing that the guy that does it also guns the engine on every start up (he did when he brought my bike out to me). I hate that. It's a stupid habit. My brother (a harley rider) does it religiously and it drives me crazy. I won't let him start my bike.
