You might want to start with your state's lemon law, if they have one for motorcycles.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Still too early to worry. Details would help. If it's something missing on the head then you should be able to replace it and be on your way. If all they did was take a head off you're really not talking that many pieces or that far into things. But the Spyder does look 'Taken Appart' with all the tupperware off.
Get some details. That is the only way to get appropriate advise (thought we aren't against giving inappropriate advise here either! :roflblack

Okay... BREATHE WITH ME...IN .... OUT
First, the Spyder is the saddest lil thing on the planet with it's panels off. Looks like a big ol bug with it's outsides peeled off.
Your dealer is doing their job. Sometimes it takes a bit to work through the troubles. It happens. These bikes are very resiliant. Like anything complicated there can be bugs from time to time. I don't think that anything permanent (damage wise) was done. It's hard to track down where all the oil came from when it's thrown all over the place.
Before you do the lemon law thing I'd give them opportunity to fix it. I do believe that you'll be on the road and falling in love with the Spyder experience soon.
Patience. I know, it's hard.... TRUST ME I KNOW. :banghead:

Welcome to our world. With the ups and downs it's a great place!!!!

Welcome to our world.
I just want to set something straight. I was not telling the original poster to immediately run out and file with his/her state's lemon law. I was just trying to show him/her that even if motorcycles are covered there has to be a certain number of incidences where the vehicle has been brought in for the same problem and the problem has not been corrected. This would all be covered in his/her state's lemon law. So, I was just trying to say in a 'nice' way that you cannot just return the spyder because you are having a problem.
By the way, I do hope his/her problem is taken care of to his satisfaction.

UPDATE TIME
Ok , guys thanks for all your support and answers. So called the dealership. Bike is fixed. I talked to someone in the service department and said I was all set! I asked "what was worng wit it?" ..... service tech " um, the cylinder valve head , hose thing, wasn't sealed right at the factory and they sealed it and its ok". I said " what does that mean". service tech... "the hose causes oil to get in ur airbox, but i sealed it and its good". Me" So that leak around the hose would cause a quart of oil on my garage floor?" Tech " i guess, not sure but ur bike is all buttoned up and ur alset". The only problem i see with this is, he called it a hose thing!! LMAO.. So i guess i have the same oil in the airbox as other people. Aagin, THANK YOU GUYS AND GIRLS!! look forward to a nice riding weekend..Eric

That's not a description, that's mumbo-jumbo. So you still really don't know what is up with your Spyder. I guess if it's 'Fixed' then it's fixed. But it would be nice to know exactly what was repaired.
Maybe the mechanic's service discription will shed more light, if they give you a copy of it.
I'm not surprised that it was easily fixed or that it was a small issue to start with. But it's always less than encouraging to have an 'Expert' on the other end who doesn't know what they are talking about.
