“The bike has been at the dealer now more times than I can count, the speedo is still off to this day by 4 miles an hour, the bike a pull to the left that has never been fixed yet.

And now ever since the power train recall and replacement, the bike has an unrepairable oil leak. It has been at the dealer now for over 3 months almost 4 months, august 6th till present.”
