Well that's just getting fussy. At least he is allowed to ride. I'll be climbing the walls soon
I saw that chick park her rav4 or something similar the other day at the shop. Lets just say she's not the best representative for the female species when it comes to driving/parking
It's a bit rich when bike shops jump the gun at blaming owners/riders before even looking at the bike.
I had a similar thing happen to me when my brand new zeds clutch went after 1000kms. They blamed me for stunt riding. While that wasnt the case and even if it was, it was my bike and i'll ride it how i see fit. It's under warranty so fix it.
Im sure warranty will cover it
It all comes down to how you ride it.....
