Now if they've not done/found out the clutch isn't working and/or oiled a simple cable whats the chances of them having done the valve check...........ZERO!The above point/s are extremely very valid. When I bought my FZ1 I found a bunch of things before and after purchase that I forced the bike shop to remedy.
- To them it's money i.e. their profit margin on the bike. IF the bike has hidden issues these are only going to get worst as time goes on and turn what is a love affair into "I wished I listened!" I've seen this time and time again!
Back to the cable, I only noticed it because I have only just lubed the cable on my FZ1. Assuming for a moment its is just the cable, how common is a sticky clutch cable? Is it possible the shop never spotted this? What's the harm in lubing the cable to see if it fixes the issue..? Harry is under no obligation to tell them he did, nor would they be able to tell if he cleans up any over spray from either end of the cable.
