Ever been happy about a shop screw-up?

Firstly, it's party my fault. Good communication requires both parties to be clear.

The shop was busy when I stopped in to make my appointment. I wasn't the only one talking.

When I arranged to have my tires changed and/for a State inspection, I asked for the original style Dunflops (K591s). That was a Monday. I dropped the bike off on Tues. and picked it up on Fri.

When I got there, I wound up saying "Those aren't the tires I asked for".

He said he didn't remember what I asked for and it had Metzlers (ME880s) on it when he rolled it in, so he put Metzlers on it. He also said "I'll change them out for you." My reply was "He ll no, I'm riding it out of here." (I had to go to work, and wasn't about to wait - it was also said in a nice tone, he knew what I meant). I wound up with an ME888 Marathon Ultra up front and a Z6 steel radial in back.

First time with a radial tire......and I'm very pleased with it. Sticks well and the bumps....well, they just don't feel as bumpy.

    Yep, years ago got $5000 worth of speakers for $500 due to a store stuff up. I went in and ordered a set of speakers and paid for them up front for the agreed price of $500 a pair. The store manager rang me later that day to tell me there was a pricing typo in the catalog, but the company would honor the original agreement. As a side note they were a very very good set of speakers that survived an absolute thrashing for many years.

    you said you have no idea what my "non- english" comment means. maybe that is because you are an ignorant azzwhoulllll who only speaks one language. Can you read FOK U U FOKIN D!CK? is that English enough for you?
