I just noticed that one of the screws that holds the windshield vibrated loose and fell off somewhere. Will the dealership replace this little problem free of charge? I have to take the bike in for the 600 mile initial service by the end of this week, so hopefully they will do their thing.
Don't know if it's covered but something like that should be such a small inconvenience I would hope it's covered, it would do a lot for a dealership's reputation to show a little courtesy to it's customers as to replace a screw that fell out. Let us know if the dealer is a good one and gives you a screw, or if he gives you another kind of screw and makes you pay for it.
I Just bought a bike from a guys and rode it 100 miles and it fell out! and now the windshield rattles its really annoying but i have to wait until I start working to buy a new screw (really tight for money) The bike does and 5500 miles on it though
Yeah mine rattles a bit too now.. :mad: Hopefully they will hook me up with a free screw.. I'll let you guys know. O0
yeah... if they don't they're in serious financial trouble. Those screws are maybe 50 cents a piece.
When I replaced the windshield on mine with a zero gravity I noticed the black screw on the bottom in the center felt like plastic. I didn't want to over tighten that for fear of it breaking or stripping. So be careful with yours.
I think there are just "squish nuts" under there... if they're like the Yamaha's that had those little plastic screws anyway, so it's hard to over tighten them. You can, however, round them out pretty easily.
Last time I checked, a screw cost $150 and the massage was extra. :laugh:
