OH SNAP!!! looks like I stepped in it this time! well looks like I'm the patsy on this deal....ok, gonna have to deal with this my way...Street fighters anonymous...My names Paul and I have a problem...

Time to break out the welder and make a cage,12 o'clock bar and other misc.pieces...stay tuned let's seehow this goes(crap.)

Thanks for the heads up racedogs, maybe one day we could all have a beer and laugh?
That explains the missing RS logo on the side panels,and the 2 different VIN numbers,and the...nevermind,I got this.
on a better note now that the starter is all new I've put another 1500 miles on the clock!

What concerns me is that now some other poor sod is going to buy that bike, and go through hell with it.

From what I am told the House of power is owned by a company that ownes car dealerships. They now carry MV Agusta and Husky along with Suz,Honda,Yam and Kaw. So if you are in the area and want to look at bikes they have a bunch to see. Just don't buy from them. I took a Triumph Daytona Demo out for a test ride a couple of years ago and when I brought it back they acted like because I rode it now I was supposed to buy it. They really gave me a hard time and I was very polite about saying I needed to think it over. Hey I just wanted to go for a nice ride, no problems. Later the BIG so I was told manager came out and started to give me a really hard time. He was BIG in size. He was very nasty and I wanted to tell him to UCL himself but I kept my cool and thought like I would never buy a bike at this place from these people. This place has different sales people all the time. They come and go. A few are die hards that have stayed. It's fun to see all the new sales people and see who is new in the parts department when I stop in to look around. I guess the back of the shop is as bad as the front. I have heard other bad stories about the service department from other customers but none as bad as this one. Good Luck with your new machine and find a good dealer to stay with. Good Techs are hard to find because most dealers don't want to pay them much.

You must have met Dean... He is no longer there I guess he pushed more than just customers(his luck I guess)They are steadily trying to work with me cuz I don't get all in thier faces(you get more flies with honey than with vinegar) so I'm just kinda callin everyday and keeping things fresh. I'm glad it's not my only bike then it would be ugly.
