thanks etl, id go for those beers right bout now......lol
well,
yesterday, my cylinder head came in......after 7 days, not 1 day turnaround, and one day back. so im fired up, but tryin not to get too excited, you know......
so today, i figure they are putting things back together, and i was wondering about a motor flush, or at very least, change the oil, filter etc. so i stop by and ask them about this, and how things were going...........
the indexing pin was fixed, and only one cam needed work, so what do these guys so highly recommended by my warranty guy do??? take both cams out, then when reassybling, two of the gears were in backwards, and in the wrong place, and a bolt that holds the cop on, was sticking halfway out, and another bolt wrapped in paper, rolling round loose in the box the head was in........
I dont make this stuff up...............
so my mechanic is fixing what should have been fixed, when it was sent to be fixed.....he told the warranty company that they just singed an open ticket to get this going again which means to me, for the amount that this head repair is gonna cost anybody but me, we could have had a NEW COMPLETE CYLINDER HEAD FOR LESS THAN 900 BUCKS............go figure
i didnt even have the energy to ask when they thought they would have it done.....
Hopefully, in the next 30 days i will be back in the vx saddle again!!! lol
take it easy people
thanks
