    I'm sorry, but a little punctuation will go a long way...
    Your turnsignals didn't work, and that caused the bike to fail a safety inspection??? Yeah; i'd be pretty ticked off about that one.

    In Jersey turn signals are optional, No one knows how to use them
    When you do use them it's like your asking permission to move over, and Very few drivers will give you permission they'll just pick up speed and close up the space.

    The question I am asking is Doesn't the dealer do safety inspections? Up here in Maine if the dealer doesn't do inspections he has it done before you drive it off the lot. Without sticker you are in violation unless you go to State Police and get a transfer permit (for a fee of course). to go to inspection station. ???

    I'm sure glad we don't have inspections in Michigan!

    Maybe I'm too much of a sheep or I've drinked (Drank, drunked... whatever ) too much of the Kool-aid; but I'd just as soon know that everybody's got to meet at least some sort of minimum standard for their equipment...
    Of course none of this works worth a if the inspection station isn't doing what they're being paid to do...

    Did you do your pre-ride safety inspection prior to ride ?

    Good point! Sometimes we just take it for granted that all of this technology will always be there... And then we get so surprised when it fails!
    But this one is really sounding more like a dealership issue... It should have been caught and corrected before that bike got near an open door for delivery!
