The suzuki shop I took mine to took out the spacer after I complained to them about backfire. They completely took the spacer out, so now I have to go back in and fix it since they should have just modded the spacer.
That's is why I don't trust work from Stealership. I think they purposely screws things up so that you have to bring it back for MORE services. There is nothing like the feeling of fixing your own thing with TLC and keep the money in your pocket at the same time
I would love to have done it myself to start with, but without a shop or even a good place to work on the bike at my house, it makes it really difficult. Plus I am missing some tools, and have no idea where they went. Very upsetting.
