I'll never go back to my dealer. After the guy showed me all the bells and whistles and telling me he went over everything with a fine-tooth comb I had to deal with several minor irritants.
He had to buff out a big scratch on the gas tank, that I noticed.
The back tire was inflated to only 18 psi.
The handlebars weren't centered and the clamps were loose.
The front brake flopped down loose as I drove it.
Two reflectors were missing.
The brakes squeaked really loud.
The headlight bounced around and the insides made all kinds of noise.

I had to really gripe and complain to get them to rectify the brakes and headlight. Even though others have had major problems with their new bikes, I wouldn't trust my dealer to service my bike and will never go back there again.
