That's too bad. I have never once in my life had an issue with any repair done by a dealer or shop for any of my vehicles. The only horror stories and trust issues I hear about are by members in various forums on the internet. Shops that do substandard work do not last long.I don't trust shops that includes dealerships. Only way I'd trust them is with me standing over who is touching my bike. And for the time...I might as well do it myself.
I'm pretty confident I could do a valve adjustment myself. OTOH, I would rather have a shop do it knowing that the job is performed well beyond my standards.
The attention to detail for complicated repairs are much better from a good repair facility than most owners are able to perform. An example would be the average owner would do just the valve adjustment, reset the CCT, button it up and be done.
By taking to a shop much more is done. New CCT, all clutch plates/clutch basket inspected and replaced, clutch rod and ball replaced, hanger spring/torsion spring replaced, gaskets, etc. Also they have the parts available without having to make multiple trips to parts stores.
Me as well. My experience is any dealer or shop that has been around while does good work.Y'all are making me appreciate my dealer more and more.
