Being as my student loans are paying for this and those were the thoughts I had originally about being in over my head that is pretty much 100% dead on how I feel.   The mechanic who is currently working on my bike originally offered to do the plug removal for free but I had no way to get my bike to him at first.   Only after I messed up did I remember that my gf has triple A so I was able to get a free tow about 40 miles away.

Buddy O mine had a jet boat w/ a 460 Ford motor. We bounced & hopped that thing all over the lakes of Texas for a coupla years. One day I looked back & that motor winks at me as we hop a wave.. it lifted the motor cover & winked at me.,,  & I knew that wasnt good.. WE shut it down to a crawl & got it on the trailer,,Took it home, discovered some of the wood had busted. We set about fixin it, Man, took a coupla weeks, fiberglass, borrowing saws, buying wood, Pain in the BUTT,, & as we were finishing up Ronnie says,
"Ya know,, I just sent in the payment for the insurance on this thing... Why didnt we use the insurance? "

Dooooh..

Glad YOU didnt cause the problem.

Theyll send ya a new plug, for FREE!

The rest is on you,..

Yeah I know it's all BS but I'm just gonna play along and maybe I'll be surprised....  Though rather unlikely lol.

What? You a glutton for punishment? You already GOT one "surprise" from them,,

You mite mention you dont have a real hobby & youre kinda lookin for one.. & that should you go away with such a bad taste in your mouth you just mite be tempted to spend time surfing the net for any place their product is mentioned & include a comment or two about your experience.. Whereas, OTOH, should you go away believing theyre an honorable outfit & stand behind their product youll tell everyone they treated ya right,,

You read my mind.   That's basically going to be my counter offer when/if they tell me they are only going to replace the plug.  Hell,  just sending the plug to them is going to cost more then the plug itself!
Lol I emailed them telling them what my mechanic told me and that he was very sure it was a bad spark plug and I got a response today from them thanking me for involving him haha.   Yeah...  I'm not one who would ever try and take advantage of a situation like this,  but I get very angry over the principle of how these things are handled and if I  feel like I'm being screwed around I'll definitely find that new hobby,  and get very good at it.    Wink (unless it involves complex motorcycle maintenance...)
