Hi,
This is my first "posting" on this site although I am a regular visitor to it. I am not even sure this is the right place to post in this site either.....anyway........
I am having a problem with my Burgman and the dealer doesn't seem to want to take any blame or responsibility for it. It is still covered under the warranty.
Several weeks ago I brought it in for the first 600 mile service. Prior to that, everything was fine! The next 2 days I used it, I started to hear a whining noise. It got to the point that it was whining so loud it sounded like a fire engine siren going down the street!!!! Over those 2 days, the noise got so bad I was afraid to use it and made an appointment to bring it back to service. When I got it back from the dealer the noise was mostly gone but I still hear it if I listen for it, especially doing between 35-45 mph. I was told that the transmission fluid was "low". I believe that during the 600 mile service the tech forgot to refill it therefore I was riding for 2 days with my transmission parts grinding together. Also. I can barely get 110 miles on a tank before the final fuel bar begins to flash. Before, I was getting nearly 140-160 before the final bar flashed.
I am asking if anyone has any suggestions on how to deal with my dealer or what steps I can take to get it fixed or replaced to my satisfaction. I plan on keeping my Burgy for several years and now I believe there is already permanent damage on my tranny that will only get worse with time. I welcome any and all suggestions........thanks!!!![/s
