Spyder withdrawal II

[Capt John]

I dropped my SM5 off for 3k oil change and I ask them to adjust the front and rear shocks. Also to adjust the aim on headlights (this is the 2nd time for headlight aiming). Got a call from service mgr. While trying to adjust the front shock. :lecturef_smilie:The adjuster broke and then split. Parts or order, but I won't be able to pick up the Spyder until a week from Friday. This is mainly due to my work schedule.

Now I know how Scotty feels.:yikes:

I feel your pain - 2 weeks without mine was a miserable time.

Ouch! I was without mine for 8 days; seemed like forever. Longest time without ryding was 10 days over the winter. Don't know how the Yankees stand it

Sorry to hear you will be sidelined. I'm sure that there are other shock adjusters that would work but who could know which ones are the right size:dontknow: I guess we are all learning one of the disadvantages of buying a vehicle made in another country. Stay cool :chill:

Sorry to hear that Randy. I feel your pain. When I first got my bike I had it a week than the dealer had it for like 3 or 4 weeks. Needless to say I was miserable without my spyder.

i wonder if they jacked it up or just tried to adjust the shock with the wheels on the ground. i remember reading a post about shock adjustments. :hun: "to jack or not to jack"

 

[Capt John]

A week before I took it in. I ask the service mgr about the front shock adjustment. He said it didn't have to be jacked up for the front. When he called me about it breaking, I ask hime if it was jacked up. He said it was. The part maybe in tomorrow or Tues. (They are closed Sun & Mon). Even if it is fixed Tues. I can't pick it up till Friday, because of my work schedule. This sucks because I was planning on riding the Sea Doo most of the day Friday. Well I'm just gonna let rough end drag and slack end slide.

THEY broke it, they should take one off of one their floorplan or demo Spyders....:dontknow:....or have the part overnighted......

I agree 100%..
