  2. Interestingly enough, there were three recalls for the last month or so
    for motorcycles - one Suzuki, one Harley, and one Aprillia. Both the
    Suzuki and the Aprillia required you to contact the dealer. The Harley
    dealer, however, would contact you. THAT's service.

    Common sence
    when you sell a scootor on name and anything but performance you look
    after the customer
    in particular the new upwardly mobile customers.
