You got that right. The dealer near me sucks! They never have anything I need and I wouldn't let their mechanics fix my lawnmower. When I have ordered a part they never call to let me know it has come in. Not to mention their ridiculous prices.

It sucks that your dealer does'nt meet your expectations. I am fortunate the my local dealer, Belleville Honda has a great bunch of people working there. Mike, one of the parts guys, is great to deal with knows the products he sells.

i agree with the honda dealerships by me.. they all suck, it seems to be they all ride or repair streetbikes and knwo nothing about quads.. they have thought my yellow 05 400 is a 450r....did i mention the prices are RIDICULOUS!!!!

The only thing I pay for at a Honda dealer are oil filters and spark plugs. They aren't touching my quad!

ya... i just called my engine builder... and he said that there is no need for a piston and it is imposible and he has never seen 4 valves bend at one time... he said the most you can bend by droping the cam chain is 2
