I took my 450r into a local dealer the other day and told them the problem I was having with the bike. My bike is still under factory warranty but I had to sign for a $102.00 inspection??? is this normal??? In the car industry under warranty customers arnt charged for inspections while under warranty. Whats the motivation for the bike tech to find anything wrong with the bike if he already has 1.5 labors customer pay he can flag?
Whats the motivation for the tech to really look for a problem and not just take a 20 minute road test in the dirt and say Its ok and flag for 1.5 labors and move on to something else? This is my first time taking a bike in and I'm really worried that they'll say nothing was wrong and be charged for nothing. What are some opinions out there on this subject??


Thanks
