Default A week for a tierod!!!

Well I guess you guys where not kidding when you said motorcycle shops take forever to get things fixed. I dropped my quad off last Wednesday for a tie rod and a brake cable and its still there. The problem is I had the parts when I dropped it off. Oh well , just something I should get used too.

Well a lot of time's it's the size and volume of the dealership , and backlog of service and repair's that are in front of your ; and sometime's it can be if you bought your quad and part's from the dealer you took it to ! So if you bought your bike from this dealer i'm sure they will get to it asap , i know how you feel when you have quad and want to ride ; but can't because it's broke and seem's like forever to get it going ! That's why i desided to do all my own work on my own atv's , and with time and labor cost's it's well worth getting a good service and repair manual to make it possible to do your own work ! I know not everyone have the tool's and no how to do their own work , but there are many fine folks here on these forum's who are more than willing to help out with all they can ; with instruction's and site's with schematic's, step by step photo's showing you how it's done ! Some great people here that will gladly help anyone in the future , you will run into some who may try to convert you over to their brand ; but there will be someone willing to help ! Hope you get your bike fixed soon when you get it back, savor the moment have fun with it ; and be carefull it might be me coming around the next corner or hill ! .............williebee

Thanks alot for your input. I guess it's the kid in me that just wants to play with my new toy. I bought the clymer service manual but I need the propper space and tools to do the work. Someday. Thanks again.
