So, I had to let myself think this over, and calm down before typing. I bought a new windshield for my MT10 from Amazon through Sportbikes4hire as the seller, May 2nd. Received the windshield, and it had a crack in it. No big deal, things happen. I contact Sportbikes4Hire to get a replacement. They ask for pictures, I send several. They said they can't issue a replacement, I have to send it back, get a refund, then order another. Not my favorite option, but ok sure. I send it back with the prepaid label from Amazon. First red flag, why ask for pictures if I have to send it back anyways? Sportbikes4Hire receives the windshield Friday May 11th. UPS tracking confirms it was received. Contacted the seller 3 times and Amazon 3 times, no response from Sportbikes4Hire. Amazon then says they will contact the seller (Tuesday May 15th) and if the seller doesn't reply within 48 hours, they will start an A-Z Guarantee claim. So today, i contact Amazon again and they said it will be another 1-2 weeks and an investigation before I get my money back. I lost it. After losing my cool and cussing the lady on the phone, her manager called Sportbikes4Hire directly and finally they said my refund has been "Approved and I should receive my money shortly. All in All, I shouldn't have to go through this much BS just to process a return. I bought from Sportbikes4Hire because I recognized their name from rentals, but this is not what I would consider acceptable costumer service. I am also not too thrilled with how Amazon handled the issue. I was given $10 on my Amazon account and a free month of prime, which is something I guess. PJ at Sportbikes4Hire just emailed me, claiming they processed the return and the hold up was Amazon. Amazon says they were waiting for Sportbikes4Hire to process the return. It's just a game of pointing fingers at one another. Regardless, I still don't have a windshield, where is a good place to get some Givi windshields?

So weird. My parents helped me search craigslist and even drove the truck and trailer to pick up my first bike. Heck they harassed me to get rid of my dirt bike and buy a street bike when I was in high school.

Yeah, thanks for filling in for me.

Looks like I will be working Saturday...

So they were not happy with the stock seat. Buyers remorse hit IMO. They couldn't get a seat made in time for their trip out west, so they bit the bullet and bought the Honda Comfort seat. They are happy with it now.

Very Nice! That will make a great introduction into the 600cc bikes.

Little bit of a drive, but I just stumbled upon this on craigslist... https://fortwayne.craigslist.org/mcy/d/2005-yamaha-fz6/6587921996.html

Yeah they aren't the easiest to work on. Of course I cuss sportbikes that require fairing removal for an oil change.

That's crazy how much more you can get out of it, just with a tune.

Coming from the Neotec to the Neotec II, it definitely has some nice upgrades. I'll be curious to see how it does in the rain.

Got a little ride in after work to get some bugs on the new lid.

Got my new helmet from @RidersDiscount

You'll be happy with the Vagabond kit. Very nice quality.

If you weren't so damn far away, I'd gladly take these off your hands. Shipping costs too much as well.

Wanna bring them to SEO? The MT is chewing up tires fast...

Down to 207 this morning. Haven't been to the gym in 2 weeks, and I have been eating like crap. Makes no sense. Gonna start back on routine though.

Well Mike has done it again. I can't wait to get my new helmet...

The TT.....A fancy VW Beetle....

Installed a new windshield on the MT. Makes a world of difference and I kinda like the looks of it. It's got a crack in it's so Amazon is sending a replacement.

If I was gonna buy something non-motorcycle related, it would be a side by side. But, it's alot more of an investment (Truck, Trailer, etc). In my neck of the woods, there is trails everywhere and they are fun as hell to rip around on.

Rode the FJR all week and weekend. Got some nice riding yesterday until the rain rolled in. Had some wildlife encounters this weekend. Skinned a squirrel with my highway peg and smacked a buzzard with one of my canyon cages.

It's in Marietta. It's a big get together of FJR owners from across the country. Called the Southeast Ohio Ramble.

+1 Mike always hooking us up with good deals.

I will be riding with people from the FJR rally Saturday, but I am free Sunday if anyone wants to meetup.

As long as you still have the givi key in your top case, @Connie14 and I can still remind you at every stop
