What to do? Brand new bike faulty

[HenryDorsetCase]

Suzuki AN125 HKK for sale. 2800km, I am second owner. It is electric start, has enough snot to keep up with traffic, and can take a passenger on the seat and a weeks worth of groceries in its storage compartment. Had first service at 1000k, and I will change the oil and filter for new owner. It will have not less than three months rego on it. It has been off its wheels twice, once on 22 February 2011 and once on 13 June 2011. No damage bar a few scratches.

All good. Not a hipster douchebag retro POS but an actual functional transport tool.

Also, the left indicator has now blown also (It was the right last time).

Indicators should not swap sides, that's serious.

Get your money back and buy two China scooters, some duct tape and superglue. Anything breaks down on the China scootahs, you can fix with duct tape and/or superglue. All else fails, you can sniff the glue and duct tape yourself to the ceiling, it'll be some fun at least...

What this guy says.

On a serious not, as I said before, get your money back and buy a small bike, why buy something for more than twice the price that does less? That's like buying a toaster with one slot.

I think what everyone is saying here, is this - stop being a fag and get rid of the scooter and buy a motorbike.

That's like buying a toaster with one slot.

You can hire them on per 20min, 30min or 60min basis. Happy ending guaranteed

Also remember that dealers probably hear quite a few JRA stories. As in "I was just riding along, when the bike spontaneously...." Fill in the blanks. You'd be amazed at what some people will try to claim under warranty.

I was thinking about this, what happens if say one was in a tight corner and the bike decided to die and you went down? If it could be proven that it was a fault with the bike would the dealer be liable for injury, gear replacement and damage to the bike resulting from the crash?

wonder why the bike wouldnt start??
Did you do the normal checks like kill switch, petrol??, reserve tank???

How so? Stop being a whiny little bitch.

Ha ha!

Also I have a Suzuki AN125 for sale which is utterly reliable.

Ha ha extra ha! Good luck with that!

Nothing at all wrong with AN125's.

also epic fail

I thought it was a good pitch: he needs transport, he bought a pile of poo, and I have something that is (charitably) unglamorous, but reliable....

very good in a natural disaster, I can attest to that.

oooh, ooooh I know this.

Its about reasonable foreseeability innit? the leading case is about that ship at the waharf and an explosion or something? .... ummmmmmmm tip of tongue....
