Default One more reason why I dislike the dealer.

I was having trouble with my bike for a while and got fed-up and took it to the dealer. I specifically told them not to fix anything because I am installing my new motor this week, I just wanted to know what was wrong. I told them that after they found the problem to call me and let me know and I will tell them what I want them to do. Of course, They went ahead and fixed it and called me the next day and gave me a bill of $133.46

Now, It turns out that it was a jetting problem because we have been having really humid weather latley so it was messing up the jetting..he said that all the costs were in labour..Lets think about that. They charge 45 dollars/hour...So 133/45 = 2.95.
It took a professional almost 3 hours to jet a blaster...Im no mechanic but I can do it in about 20 mins..ALL it did was increase the main ONE POSITON. THATS THREE HOURS TO CHANGE THE MAIN JET ONCE!!!!EVEN AFTER I TOLD THEM NOT TO TOUCH FIX IT...
So now I just paid 133 bucks for a carb to be jetted that Im not even using anymore. I tried to fight it but those guys are just d!cks...needless to say I have said my good-bys to that dealer.
