Dealership quoted 24+ weeks before repair can be completed. Was advised not to operate motorcycle until the repair is performed.
If it's unsafe to further sales then it's unsafe to ride it to the dealership, so who's paying for the towing cost? Loss of use?? Deflated value of the bike?
I was driving my motorcycle on the car pool lane when all of a sudden the bike seized up and the rear wheel locked up so I held the clutch lever and pulled to the left of the left median so I took it to a shop but they just screwed me and dismantled the whole engine and never told me what was wrong so I just bough another engine and the same thing happened to this engine but this time I took it apart and found out that a manufacturing issue may cause the connecting rod bearing to wear prematurely, corrode and break, which may cause the engine to stall and/or not restart I found a recall on the federal safety agency website I have supporting documents which I I will supply.so 2 engines same problem. The second picture is the bearing that failed all that debris was in my oil also I learned how to take apart and put back together motorcycle engines because I have about 5 motorcycles and dirt bikes.
