Engine - Drivetrain

if it were mine ?, i'd drive the 3.5 hrs to the other dealer, but this is me..lol. i have a hard time dealing with sorry ppl..lol.

Ouch ok thanks for the advice.   That dealer is 2.5 hours away and the next ones are 3.5 hours away.    This dealer said they check the fluid level before it leaves (then why was it still wrong…?). They will take it apart but if they find nothing broken they are worried I will end up footing the bill. 

ok, now that you have that out of the way, now look into another dealer besides the one that sold it to you.what i have learned in my yrs of dealing with '' stupid '' dealerships ?, is there is always another dealership that will take care of you. what the first one wants you to do..is give up !. never...EVER..give up, if it takes getting a lawyer ?, then do it...then sue for damages while your at it. ppl give up too easy..and that is what they want you to do...GIVE UP ?!. don't gve up !.

Here is there response after I reached out, got a response, replied with additional info, and was hoping for a solution. Needless to say this isn’t a good look for Honda. I chose this brand SPECIFICALLY because of a reputation for durability and quality. And here I am wasting my precious time on my new $9k bike.    Thank you for contacting American Honda Powersports Customer Relations.

I almost had this done to my 400AT at one point. Factory drums are still going strong on it though.
