    VIFF: THAT is the reason? Pretty flimsy reason. I got fired from a car dealership (the only time in my life I have been fired) when they got tired of me constantly sticking up for the customer after they changed their pricing/marketing structure in Service...they got tired of "do anything to keep the customer for life" and went with "screw the customer out of as much money as possible." They have declined in revenue since then of course...

    Not all dealerships are evil...just many of them.

    I'd say most! We agreed on a price for a ZR1 Corvette on a place in Seattle, went back the next day with our financing papers and they told us to get lost. Does a hand shake mean anything to anyone these days?!

    I already have a 2nd bike - a Valkyrie. I still like to laid back cruise ez at 45 mph thru the countryside. The flat 6 is da bomb for that duty. Then if you want to wick it up - 95 ft-lbs of torque is instantly available to unleash the beast. Fun Fun. I think the Valky has more torque at idle that the viffer at peak.

    My brain swims around at how about a 3rd, a 4th, and a 5th bike. (Although I dont have the energy to handle them) How 'bout an 848, a Speed Triple, and a FJR1300. Yeah - that's it.....:tongue:

    That and apparently I took too long when I was picking up supplies for the whole store at Costco.

    I made a lot of little mistakes (to which my manager couldn't elaborate what specifically), I never made the same mistake twice and they never warned me or cared to address any of them as or after they happened.

    **** happens.
