My bike had a recall on the rear wheel, got a call from the dealer when it should have been ready with some guff about the fuel pump. They had to keep the bike overnight. I had a gutless loan bike in the meantime.
Next day picked the bike up and the fuel gauge doesn't work. Back in and they claimed "it is just a massive coincidence"
I had to book the bike back in and was very grumpy, they quoted me £200 plus to fix something they broke. Once apart they found that it was indeed their fault so nothing to pay.
In the meantime they loaned me a S1000R

And it was sunny. I had the whole day ragging it as best I could. Utterly ferocious acceleration, and braking is like running into a wall. Want.
