Example complaints

2005: “During a routine tire change, the tech notified me of a crack in my swingarm. After he showed it to me they located a take off (a used) from someone who wanted a chrome swingarm instead of black. I was offered that used swingarm at a good price and had it swapped. I went back and brought home the original (cracked) swingarm. I have it and have pictures too.”
