On late Friday afternoon several of my work mates who all ride Harleys started making noises about going for a ride.

Around 15 minutes we decided to ride down South, take a ride through Ferguson Valley and beyond, sounded great.

I gets home and does a walk around my bike, it was in for service the week before, they told me my rear tyre was needing to be changed soon.

Damn my rear tyre is now about ready to shred itself to pieces, I though fuck I only did about 300 kms since the service.

Well I gets up Saturday morning, I go and try to get a tire fitted before I have to meet the boys at 9.30am. They have a tire, but all their techs are busy with other bikes, they said if I wanted to wait until someone was available they would get the tire on before end of day, 1pm.

I said I would wait, what choice did I have, then I told them that I was missing my ride with the other boys, that's when they said, no you aint missing anything.

They gave me a bloody loan bike for the weekend, how fucking good is that.

I ended up doing a 500km ride approx. on Saturday.

Old boy smiled all day, they gave me a brand new Slim, 107 it went alright, I think my 110 is better, but Im guessing the 114 or 117 would be better again.

Just thought Ild share.

Thats great Red , the old dealers get a bit of a bagging generally so a good story is deserved there .

That's Great service bit like the old days good on em.

Yep, good to hear a positive story about a dealer for a change. Onya Red.

But notice they lent you a brand new model instead of some older shop bike. It's a sales tactic.
They hope you'll love the new model and buy one  

But still, it's good because many repairers don't give you any courtesy vehicle, so it's still a positive.

Sale tactic or not it is well played by the dealer. Mine gives me a loaner when i ask to when mine is in for a service.

Good read and a thumbs up to the Dealership.

It sounds like you have a decent dealer who maybe isn't 100% about the money
