Cycles & More: The Update

60 comments


Picked my bike up today. The turn signals still do not work, but that is mainly because I chose to take my bike home rather than be at their mercy for another month.

In case you came in after the previous Cycles & More post, here’s the final Mastercard ad:

Rear tire and tube replacement: $322.26

Full service tune up: $210.45

Replace mounting hardware for rear passenger footpeg (supplied by owner): $75.60

Replace and install chrome trim cap over left rear shock mount: $22.45

Unmitigated redass and aggravation from two months of waiting for my bike: N/C

Telling the dealership owner why me, Rookie Partner and Dino Medic will all be buying our next bikes and jet skis from his competitor: Priceless.

Well, it wasn’t quite priceless.

Priceless would have been seeing him fawn at my feet to make it right, and then bursting into flames from the sheer heat of my anger and burning into a greasy puddle right there on his showroom floor.

But as I left, I suggested that perhaps he should Google the name of his business and see what pops up.

He may yet spontaneously combust.

    Just to add on to DiveMedic:Slander and libel do not apply to opinion, only to damaging falsehoods. Opinion cannot be demonstrated as false.They would need to find some allegation that they can demonstrate is untrue, and show damage.

    Last time I checked treating people differently based on their appearance is called discrimination. I wonder if Cycles & More has consulted their lawyer on that one.

    Just exactly HOW did the simpleton KNOW that AD did not buy his bike from Cycles & More ("U didnt even buy your bike from them but u failed to mention that.")?With the obvious illiteracy on display from a Cycles & More employee in this thread, ANY repairs made on anyone's bike by Cycles & More should be double-checked by a competent mechanic.
