My silver & titanium is on the list. It was uncrated on 2/11/09 fresh from the factory.

Guess I'll call the dealer tomorrow.

Thanks for the heads up.  I am also on the list with a 3/31/09 purchase date.  Might as well figure out what more accessories I can have them add since I'm going in anyways!!

MoCo`s reaction on recall 140 ( breaking blade wheels )
« Reply #28 on: July 14, 2009, 10:35:25 AM »

The headquarter Mörfelden in germany only have a recall listed upto 139 .
 They do know that a 140m is on the way but that`s it .
Checking the wheels is possible with two methods :
by X-ray means minimum 10 pics per wheel and one pic would be about 100 Euro plus removing the tire and the wheel and mounting it back - too expensive for them .
Penetrating is only possible with non-chromed rims .

One frontwhell is available but it is not sure whether it is ok or not and a rear wheel is not here in germany yet .

Next week i want to start a 3000miles trip to Mallorca .
Should i cry ?
or ignore these facts ?

Sorry Brad.

I'm 23 minutes late in replying.
I just called my service manager and he didn't answer, then I remembered they have a staff meeting every Tuesday at 10, so I'm sure he will call me back. I will post when he calls.
