I got my first bike ever...about 2 months ago...sadly i did take the bike down once....it just hit 820 miles and had to take it in for a FULLLL service..and cuz i have the service plan its all freeee!! but i also wanted to take it in there to get the thrash looked at....not to much just the norm things...toook the bike in....gave him the keys....they took it into the back....(930am)...i HOURS for a call...so i call back....(300pm) "oh yeah your bikes redy...and by the way i while your bike was being worked on we had it raised up on our jack stand (4 feet in the air) and your new 2008 Honda cbr600rr FELL OFF AND HIT THE GOUND SHATTERING MY MIRROR AND HITTING MY CRANK CASE EVEN MORE AND ADN!!!!! BRAKING OFF MY ENTIRE FENDER FERRING!!!!!!!!!!!

What Should i do? they said they will fix everything..no charge...everything but my crank case...but how do you brake a mirror and a fender and not hit the crank case....even though i layed it down first...i took it there to make sure it was ok.....shhould they fix it now?????

they also said that if i bring them a crank case...and frame sliders they will install for free.....but i think they should do more....what u all think???

oh and its the Honda Dealer on Rancho!!!

WTF you have to be joking! I would have it checked out by and independent party and make sure the bike is okay. Did you call your insurance company and I would definitely take pictures of the damage. Did they list any damage on the bike when you brought it in?

Can you say brand new bike?!?

Wow....that's....a....painful...post...to...read.. .. .... .... .... .... .... .... .... ....





They should fix everything. I would tell them to replace everything that was damaged while in their possession.

Fender, mirror, and crank case. If it landed on the seat it might have bent the subframe also.


If they argue, tell them that you will talk to your lawyer, about compensation.

Honda Rancho is now Ride Now so I'm not surprised at all to hear that. It sucks to hear but not at all surprising. While they are responsible for the damage caused there I wouldn't want them touching the bike again. I damn near totaled my bike with only 600 miles on it and Racer's Edge did a killer job on fixing it. I would talk to a lawyer and see if and independent can fix it and bill Ride Now

hmm I didn't know that, ridenaw did my first tune up and forgot a bolt that goes to my lower fairing. This is y I'm learning to do the labor myself. Yea I'd also take it to another shop and have ridenaw billed. Talk to the lawyer first. He might have other plans

I agree with everyone here, don't take it home because then they can try to claim that the big damage happened on your watch. If you took the bike in with scratches on the crank case, and got it back with a CRACK in the crank case, then something is fishy there and they need to own up. Better yet, go to Channel 13 on their ass!!!!

Yes, leave it there. Once you accept it back, you have essentially released them.

It sucks worse when you finance a vehicle and you can't ride/drive it because they screwed up.
