I get this *&$% all the time at work, (sell car parts for ford and holden) so youd imagine how many taxi guys we get.. all wanting a 2004 commodore engine for $400 bucks, discount the price hard out, deliver it for free and they bitch on and on about how much it cost to put the engine in and want us to pay for some of it!

Id tell the dude that bought the bike to shove the faring up his ass... in a respectfull manner.. or something

He comes in totally "shocked" that the bike shop charged so much for a simple oil and filter change.He was only prepared to pay for the work he asked to be done. He denied even having a wife even though her name was on the HP paperwork at another bike shop.

The plot thickens... as I'd said before, there's no way the guy could honestly have expected to get the fairing repaired for free after getting a discount off the bike being as is. My mate manages a restaurant and people constantly try to scam free stuff or discounts by saying the food was cold or didn't taste good but only after they've eaten 90% of the meal!!

And these scammers don't get their comeuppins so don't get dissuaded from doing the same again in the future

Can you do one VY Acclaim wheel? (I have a set to sell, but one is broked).

FOCUS: Frosty, find out where the prick lives/works and go kick the fucking thing over.

Problem not solved, but some stress relieved.
