I got a 5k service here on my Road King. They broke a stud on my Big Sucker air cleaner. I had to pay for the part they broke. Service was okay, Mike at the service desk didn't put in the right amount of time for the service, he put in an hour, not the 3.5 hours it takes to do the job, but since I was there they did the service. The price was good.
Next, I brought my Sportster in because it was pouring gas out of the carb. Probably the float. I brought it in on a Thursday, they called the next Monday and said they "think" the carb needs to be rebuilt. I said okay. A week goes by, I go into the store to see what's up. Mike's not there, talk to Brandon I think, he says there is nothing on the computer on it. He checks, they have the rebuild kit but are waiting on the jet kit. So I leave and another week goes by and I go back, talk to Mike who is bs-ing with a buddy, and ask what is going on, he checks and says the jet kit is sitting at the parts desk but nobody in parts or service has given it to the mechanic. He says he'll go get it once he's done bulls**ting with his buddy. I say okay and leave. Another week goes by and I go in, Mike is out with COVID, so I talk to Brandon who is outside smoking, and ask what's up. He checks the computer and says they're waiting on the jet kit. I say Mike told me the week prior it was on a shelf in the parts department and that he was going to get it and give it to the mechanic. Brandon and I walk over to parts, the parts guy asks me my name, looks at the computer and says there is nothing for me. I say Mike said the jet kit is sitting on a shelf behind you. The parts guy looks and low and behold there's my jet kit. It's been sitting there a week and Brandon says we got to put your bike back on the schedule because no one but Mike knew the parts were there (why? I don't know), so Brandon says he'll put me on the schedule again and I might get my bike back anywhere from a couple of days from now to a week. This kind of crap is bad for business guys, I'm probably going to take my bikes to Wrecking Crew in Johnson City or the guys down in Kodak if this is the kind of competence your service and parts guys have. read more
