    Old Oil From Walmart

    okay, this is just becoming ludicrous. If you want to discuss your beloved free market economy I'd suggest you do it in an appropriate forum, this is not it. I'd also suggest you realize some people agree with you, some don't. It's life, get use to it. Some of us believe that regulation is...

    Gosh...why are some cagers complete asses?

    what exactly are we alluding to here?

    Gosh...why are some cagers complete asses?

    So in this situation, because the potential "might be there", just empty a clip into the guys window?

    Old Oil From Walmart

    failing to see how this is "political"? What if the law is proposed and it's passed across party lines? I.E. No one votes against it? still political? Or could it simply be seen as "better for Society?" Would it add to costs or would the Company "just eat the price" of the extra clerk? So let's...

    Topcase recall ?

    Thanks! for clearing that up. I had no idea there were 'different' types or recalls, thought they were all "no expire". Now I'm not as confused ;) heheh which is better than my usual wtf expression I seem to normally have ;)

    Old Oil From Walmart

    And what if they "all do it?" What if you have to drive an extra 25 miles so you can "better to spend your dollars?" what then?

    Old Oil From Walmart

    and that's the 64 thousand dollar question right there. If it was sealed, then it came from the mfg that way right? Walmart (or anyone else) does not have the ability to "re seal" these do they? As far as I know only the mfg can do that. So it's possible when they were returned a mistake was...

    So, just out of curiosity, did anyone else read this and think "their life was in danger?"...

    Old Oil From Walmart

    Good for you. I've made a scene or two at some of the local retails stores myself, Walmart being one of them. I really hate when you get fed this BS about how the Customer comes first when their actions make it perfectly clear the Bottom Line comes first! Get another damn clerk in there ya...

    Topcase recall ?

    Good to hear Dunk. As much as I looked, couldn't find the US version of this. Maybe they disappear after awhile? No idea myself. If I was you, I'd want this done. good luck with it.

    Topcase recall ?

    Wow... that's just unreal. Looks like it's out of a movie or something, sheeeesus.

    Gosh...why are some cagers complete asses?

    +1. Always stop on the outside of my lane, which ever side looks as though it has an easier path to 'get out of the way'. That's what I don't understand here. Just stop at the far right side of your lane, stay in first, keep your eyes peeled on the mirror. Someone comes around too fast, get...

    American Cagers & "Some" Bikers

    Agree completely Mike. Ea situation has aspects that will make it unique. I'd only say be aware, these Semi (lorry) drivers are doing it for a living, we're doing it for fun. My experience has been that the vast vast vast majority of them will do the right thing, if you cut them some slack...

    Clutch issue

    Good points U WISH... but I'd still have to say to Yama Mama... again... do we have to cross our fingers and hope? U know what it costs if the gear dogs have to be replaced right? U know we have to fight u to get warranty work done? should we have to be doing this? At this entry price? How hard...

    American Cagers & "Some" Bikers

    First... I don't disagree with you Mike, I've been pissed off by the same thing too. I'd add though that this thread, and other specific comments can be helpful. It can help us to maybe re-think our everyday perceptions. Maybe... there's more to the situations than we realize? possible? In the...

    Clutch issue

    Completely understood. No intention to indicate otherwise, none, nada. Sorry if that didn't come across clearly. And I agree, with the kind of money involved here... should anyone have to be saying to themselves... "should I do a clutch soak?" "should I not?", "Maybe I will?", "Maybe I can get...

    Clutch issue

    Well that's pretty much why (your experience) the Dealers and (thus) the Dealerships say... "put more miles on it..." or "wait... it'll be fine..." and while that works for "most"... it doesn't work for everyone! (see the bent gear dog threads...) Listen... no offense. If yours is shifting...

    American Cagers & "Some" Bikers

    (snipped for brevity) I'd have to disagree. There were some specific points made in the first post... not a general "crappy drivers". the distinction may not be obvious! but it's a lot harder to address "crappy drivers" than it is to address specific things... like those brought up in the...
