No problem. It's not what you ride that's important, it's
that you ride. Bikes are bikes, I'm totally equal opportunity, look at me, I have a Kawasaki in the garage and I like it.
Whatever you wind up with, don't be a stranger on this site and if you need K&N filters for your whatever, I'll be happy to get them for you.
I'm going to start carrying 7th Gear lubricants soon. 7th Gear is American blended like Amsoil, synthetic and JASO-MA rated. I'm running 7th Gear in all m y bikes at the present time. It's not as pricey as Amsoil or Mobil 4T. Not as cheap as a dino oil but not as pocket robbing as the Triumph recommended elixr or the Amsoil.
I feel really bad that Carelo didn't have the basic courtesy to follow up on a legitimate concern. That's very poor business practice, especially in today's recessionary economy, worldwide. Even if he had no intention of making good on a refund or even if it was out of his hands, he should have communicated that with you, one way or another. I know, I try to follow up on every one of my customers, especially if there is any concerns. I learned early on that one or two customers harboring feelings of ill will can literally break your ass. To that end, my customers are always right. My wife isn't.
Whatever you wind up with, ride safely and pro-actively and keep in touch. We all love to hear adventures and first hand opinions of other bikes besides Rockets.
