This is the first new bike I have had in a while, I ride older bikes and do my own maintenence normally.
I was very dissappointed in the Yam dealer I took the bike to for the 6000 mile service. They really did not know the difference between well maintained and bearly maintained.
When my regulator connection problem occurred I did some investigation myself but the bike was away from home, it was cold and I had limited tools so I went to the closed dealer and explained what the situation was, they were all for sticking a new alternater in at 500 euro a pop! I mean, there was no interest at all to try and INVESTIGATE, you know, like good bike mechanics should.......
