Read back through my prior posts. I was never enamored with MOMs (Motorcycles Of Manchester). I dealt with them because I was smitten with the bike (after test riding it), the timing was right for me to buy, they had (smartly?) arranged to have the Yamaha Demo Truck there, and they had the exact bike I wanted in stock. In retrospect I'd have been able to make a far better deal if I had been more patient and gone shopping. But honestly, what is your time worth?But I don't care at all.The monetary difference is not a big issue (for me) because I intend to keep the bike for long enough that by the time you average it out it will become insignificant. Besides, the financing they supplied was better than what I could have come up with by a full point, and much better than what I could get leaving the money in the bank collecting interest.The fact that they assembled the bike wrong is not a big issue (for me) because I have no faith in any dealers and would likely have done all my own maintenance anyway.And nothing they did will affect the longevity of the bike in the long run.Sure, I'd have liked it if I felt they were an option for warranty and recall work in the future, but there are others out there. No sweat off my brow.
