    She's also getting new shoes.
    They are also going to look at the silicon bubbles embedded in my paint job. These are not a result of wear - these are the result of improper painting procedures and processes.
    In addition, they are going to check the radiator fans - the right one ( as I have mentioned in a past thread) seems to vibrate a lot more than anyone else's I have seen.

    I also told them to go "stem to stern" and tell me if they thought anything else needed servicing.
    Not that I will authorize them to do it - I just want to know.

    Well, I got her back today and Pensacola Motorsports did a good job. No leaking, removed parts available for viewing, they were incredibly accommodating.
    The rest of her "spa week" went fine, new tires (OEMs), 16,000 mile service including the clutch and front brake fluid drain & replace.
    They gave me a military discount as well.
    My girls:
    Isleen - 2014 F6BD
    Saorla - 1995 FLSTN Heritage Special

    Just got my brake recall done. My B was the wrench's 62nd recall service. Got to ride it home though the mountains in the rain to test out the new brakes.

    The wrench said the new master cylinders have different valving and should work better than the originals. No problems to report so far. Will give it a once over later.

    Well after my rear brake lockup fiasco I must give two thumbs up the Big Valley Honda in Reno,NV.It did take them a week and a half to get the recall parts but in there defense I was not a scheduled customer and they had just used there last F6B parts on another bike.The tech has done around 60 or so and has it down to a hour and a half.I also had him bleed the front brakes and clutch plus change out the coolant.Got all that done for 150.00 which I felt was fair.Everything was great and tight with no broken parts.I must say on the ride home the brakes feel much more positive and the rear peddle which always felt a little spongy is really good now.Again I am the 4th brake lockup this dealer has had over the last few years so even though it is rare it can happen and it is not fun when it does so if your on the fence about getting this recall done you have been warned

    Just had mine done at Carter Motorsports Vancouver. Took the tech 3 hours, start to finish. Brakes seemed fine before the work, but the front lever does feel firmer, more immediate now.

    WTH?!?!
    On the other hand: If this was their way of saying "I don't know how to do it correctly" then good for them for not mucking it up.
    Seems like dealers are the weak link.

    Picked mine up yesterday, all is good. The brakes feel very firm now. My dealer has done over 90 bikes so far with this recall.
