Did They Fix It?

Published by: PrayasIride on 26th Sep 2010 | View all blogs by PrayasIride
I took my bike to the shop the other day,
Asked them to fix my bike, they said, "OK!";
I left it with them and was feeling good,
Knowing my bike would be fixed as it should;
I received a call and they said it would be delayed,
That meant that my bike would be in there another day;
They promised me, they promised me, I took their word,
I know what they told me and I know what I heard;
I had this strange feeling in my gut,
I felt that my bike would go untouched;
I have heard of stories, where they said they would fix,
and take your money and you would be git;
Now I don't want to give two wheel tips a bad name,
with the reader thinking two wheel tips feels the same;
All of this is just coming from me,
If my bike could talk it would agree;
I had a trip to Americade planned,
Hotel reservation made in advanced;
If I did not make it on time,
I would lose my deposit and my mind;
Something happened to my bike while I was riding there,
The same old problems started again and I will share;
What makes me so sure in my mind,
I knew a mechanic that used to work there at one time;
He told me of shady practices and lies,
That is why now, I have opened my eyes;
What can you do when you can't do your own work,
and have to depend on a dealer who is a jerk;
I really don't like speaking like this,
Because all shops this is not their practice;
I said, I would share what it was, they didn't do,
To be honest, I don't have a certifed clue;
30,000 miles maintenance, is what I ask,
and fix the fairing that was shaking like a blast;
The radio was making strange noise and sounds,
After, I picked up my bike and rode around;
The bike didn't feel tight like it use to would,
It felt loose like something ratteling under the hood;
I know I can't prove legit;
I want to know, did they fix it!

    two wheel tips feels the same
    a lot of crappy dealers are to blame

    I took my vtx in for some lizards lights
    they wired it wrong and my battery said "yikes!"

    There was a constant power drain
    The bike wouldn't start, what a royal pain

    I figured it out and unhooked everything
    my battery was happy and started to sing

    The dealer said it's not their fault
    Had to be something wrong with what I bought

    I told them that I bought it from you.
    They looked around and said "you bought it from who?"

    I looked at them with a pout
    They said it's closing time, so you have to get out
