General Maintenance Items
« on: February 14, 2009, 08:58:20 AM »

Just a reminder to maintain your bike. While riding with a group last weekend, a heel shifter fell off a 2009 bike!! We all need to tighten up the bolts and screws from time to time, don't forget those muffler clamps as well.. Maintenance

SO true, even on a new bike. After being forced to pay the dealer PDI (Pre Delivery INSPECTION) my new SERG had several loose bolts, including the seat bolt that fell out within the first week of ownership.

How much did he pay to have the guy leave the oil cooler clamp loose enough to leak?
