    There may have been a few issues but TSS have dealt with them in what sounds to me a very good manner, of the few issues you have had the rear shock is the worst one and still covered under warranty, which is what is expected when buying a new vehicle. It is possibly time you started taking a little more time in checking your bike over on a regular basis, this can reduce the number of problems that occur during riding and may even prevent an accident.

    I have been driving company vehicles for years and there has always been 1 or 2 that seem to have got thrown together at the end of the week and always had minor niggles and others that never had a problem. Comes done to quality control and as has been said previously... the people involved
    If you can't be good, be good at it

    If they tell you what the rattle is, let me know.
    I've been hearing a slight rattle ever since I had the CDI wire cut to remove the power restriction/flat spot.

    Well kinda a cross between a rattle and something like air being sucked through a tube.

    Aside from that my Naked Yellow Hyosung has been doing me proud

    i think some of you are being a bit harsh on Dodger, if i brought a brand new bike, i would expect it to be spanking, having this many problems in teh first 6 months is potentially a sigh of more shit to happen?

    If we just go on accepting substandard manufacturing/assembily then we will continue to get it.

    We shall out our hard earned cash, i think it is fair to expect quality.

    Plus a number of those issues could have been bad, what if the chain guard had locked the back wheel, would Hyosung have shelled out for that? Doubt it.

    I know TSS are sorting you out which is great, but you are well within your rights under teh consumers Guarentee Act to demand a new bike that isnt a lemon. Document everything as you may need it in the future.

    That's what my wife keeps telling me, but I don't think I could bring myself to demand a new bike
    Anyway, other than the minor issues the bike has been great, no problems with engine/frame/wheels or anything "important"

    Although the rear shock is prob in the "important category"

    Just a little update.

    Well it's taken a while but the rear shock has been replaced. (Bike feels so much better) and I'm dropping the bike off on Friday to have the rattle removed (ongoing problem since Jan). The rattle is coming from the "box" under the bike which the muffler/exhaust is connected to.

    Also the tapping left foot peg has returned since the 4000k service. bloody thing.
