Well, one is definitely not the fault of the build process. During shipping, the front fairing was struck by something, causing a couple of TINY scratches (probably would not have even noticed if the dealer hadn't of pointing it out) New Fairing was already ordered upon purchasing the bike.
Second is what looks like a thumbprint in the paint on the rear of one of the saddlebags. At first I thought it was a grease smudge as it was not wanting to come off with a easy wipe from a soft cloth. When I washed the bike 2 days ago, I realized it wasn't coming off because it was UNDER the clearcoat. Took it up to the dealer, they looked at it, spoke with the MoCo, and told me it would be covered and a new saddlebag would be ordered on Monday!
The speaker in the right saddlebag is not 100% sealed and leaked a little water into the bag when I washed it. Not sure if the saddlebags are supposed to be "Water Tight" , but with the little bit of water that leaked around the speaker, I am not too terribly concerned. I do plan to follow up with the dealer again on this one.
There is a small scratch on the heat shield where the 2 pieces meet near the end of the floorboard. Again, the scratch is barely noticeable so I am not real distraught about it.
Other than that, I wish they had paid a little more attention to detail when they "detailed" it prior to pick up. There was still some glue from the shipping tape on the passenger pegs, front fender and lowers, but that all came off fairly easily.
Overall, I am very satisfied and the fact that the dealer is taking care of everything is saving me from having to be a real A-Hole.
Yeah, its a bit disappointing to spend that kind of money and not have perfection, but I guess you can never take the human factor out of things. And since these bikes do not roll off their own line anymore, I am sure they have lost some of their Perfectiveness (yea, just made that word up! LOL)
