Ok, I was just curious here. Who has had a warranty on their GS and actually used it?

I realize a lot of y'all bought your bikes used, so this might not really apply to you. But I am curious how many GS owners have had to use their warranty.  :dunno_white:

Unfortunately I did. When I took the bike, after a few km, the oil started sprinkle from the head gasket, so I went back for a free service, the gasket was pinched during assembly...

This is good information for everyone to know!

Personally, I bought my bike in '04 and never had to use my warranty.
