Be nice.   Just explain that the work done is no good and exactly what they need to do to correct it.   Don't go in with an attitude.   :nono:

My forks went bad at 4,400 miles...they fixed 'em under warranty.   8,000 miles now and no further problems.
On those days when life is a little too much and nothing seems to be going right, I pause for a moment to ponder the wise last words of my grandfather:  "I wonder where the mother bear is?"

attutude is not needed with this guy. The owner is a real nice guy but not good at worksmanship, this is that same guy who straighened my front forks and put the tire on off center he also cleaned my carbs and forgot to synce and put the vent hose back on the tank. siiiiiiiiiggggggggghhhh I need to make more time to work on the bike myself.

Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

Hmmmm sounds like Leak proof Seals to me.Check and See if they did use them.If they did use Leak Proof have them replace them with Originnal Suzuki Seals. :thumb:

thier is a nick on the slider but only where it clamps to the lower fork brace. Im not sure what kinda seals they used but they were $30, I went back today and he said he will order the seals again and call me so when he does I will ask to see what kind they are.

I bet they're as upset as you are..... 

I had some work done and a fuel line got cut.  When I brought it back I thought the mechanic was gonna poo in his pants when he saw it.  He was more freaked out than I was...  (Can you say fear of Wrongful Death suit?) :icon_confused:
