Bummer story: (Sorry Im from Cali. We Speak Different here....dude) Translation:
Bought my SV650S July 18 found out the nicho aftermarket exhoust was burning a hole in MY battery box.(you know the box that holds the battery under the seat? a hole 3 inches wide.)The bike stayed at the shop two days. They figured to put a thinner battery. drove home 2 blocks away. Next day didn't start another 2 days! I figured I didn't drive it far enough for the battery to charge (usually when a new battery is installed it needs to be charged by the motorcycles alternator or genorator), fine. So finnally picked it up another 2 days later and took it out for a ride (2 miles!) and the gears were gone!( gone as in burned, waisted, some mother f*^$^n bastard slipped the crap out of 3rd 4th 5th and 6th.) San Diego's House of motorcycles sold me a F'n Lemon. they're trying to say I did the damage! I could'nt test drive it cause I dont have an M1.(I don't need no stinking licence! been riding since I was a kid: dirt bikes and quads.) The bike was traded in the day I bought it. (dealership had no time to check the bike) Got a lawyer and all that jazz but I WANT MY SV!
on a good note: my lawyer got the dealership to pay for everything, will be riding again in a week or so thanks to all who replied with advice
