yeah thats kinda how i feel. but yeah i guess it could be worse like the engine blew or something. but still i still dont see why it has taken almost 2 weeks to get some measly seals in that only cost 30 something bucks..:-(:

hey lizard thanks a ton for the insight. i am getting them both replaced the initial take to this thread aside from the crap service ive recieved is why the hell is it taking so long to get the parts. and only reason im keeping it there is casue there not chargeing full price since i referred them a sale the day i signed for mine. its only gonna cost me like 100 for them to do both instead of 200 i jsut dont see why it takes so long for yamaha to send the parts when they allready got the oil seals. i wouldnt want to ride it with it leaking you can def tell there is a suspension prob in the front end when you ride it...

well the bike has only 7k miles who knows what the previous owner did to it it does ride and sound good, like i said my buddy whom his whole family rides and races there whole life says its a smooth bike except for the leaking fork seal. i even notcied goin over bumps it would pull a bit to the right or when i hit the brake and now i know why it must have leaked alot..

which it did ben. it did sit for a long time and when i got the bike i inspected it very very thorough me and my brother. had them run it leave it running. wouldnt let me test ride it or anything till the papaer where signed. but in my opinion it wasnt like i waited a week it obviously started leaking when i drove her home soon as i hopped off her my bro was like whats that leaking stuff so had a friend check it out and they seemed more pissed than me at the time.

middletown cycle, guess i left that out. i posted it in my introduction and even was asking around in shop reviews about middletown cycle.

hmm good info to have thanks again. and flounder so is this dealer just taking a precaution and jsut replaing the whole set up or they just taking there time. He said that soon as he hears back from ups he would get back to me he is trying to track it with tracking numbers. as for the dust seals he did say that the reason they where leaking was becasue they probably dry rotted from sitting so long so who knows

good point..i think i might start investing in some tools and most def that manual. I mean jsut the thought of my bike that i jsut dumped money i didnt have in for a down payment and I dont even have it so it is def a good point to start looking into!

lucky wish my exp of a used as is no warranty bike went that smooth lol but gratz on the hella deal

but im

sorry man jsut got off the phone bout an hour ago and part still not freaking in im getting heated... all these nice days to be riding and my bike still at the damn shop

So as most of you know by now if you have read my introduction last week that the day after I bought my used 06 R6 I had to take it back to the dealership due to the front right fork seal leaking. And yes I did examine the bike thourghly. My guess the dealer either knew about it and wiped it off or didnt notice it. I for sure didnt notice it till I pull her in the drive way from the dealer. Anyway even tho its sold "as is" I took her back the next frigid morning and of course didnt give me a strait answer on whether they would fix it for free or not. (And of course 3 days later they say they will pay for half but not all of it since it is "as is") there lucky i didnt hurt myself and it would have been like buying a car "as is" and the brakes not working and going thru a stop sign. Anyway my question is the day I took her back to the dealer 3/19/09 they ordered all the needed parts to fix both sides. So now here I am almost 2 weeks later and they still have not gotten "all" the parts. I know it may not be the dealers fault but jeez this is ridiculus. This is my first "newer" bike so if this is how its gonna be to get it serviced man I pray nothing ever breaks on it again. Its been way to long in my opinion. Maybe Im wrong, but it jsut seems a little ridiculus. They say they have everything except the dust seals. When I was purchasing the bike the salesman informed me that the bike had been sitting in the back for 4-5 months cause the previous owner wasnt sure if he was gonna trade it in on some dirt bikes or not and eventually jsut said give me what you can for it and be done with it. Another thing I want to rant about is I asked for all the service history on what they did to it and they said they dont have them. Is that normal? But when I called today to ahve them check the bike over for me (air filter,plugs) the service guy said Ill have to check the "sheet" so obviously there is some records on what they did anyway sorry for the "wall of txt jsut frustrated...

Combichrist!!!
