Exactly you tell the truth you might not make 2 grand but you tell a lie the truth comes back to get you whether it be 10!minutes or 10 years it will come back,
I'm a mechanic and I try to tell people how and what I'd do if their car was mine I suggest if they say no and want to go the cheap route no problem ill do as you command but ill follow all laws and regulations an note what I told the customer on the ticket.
You can fix stupid but you sure can charge for it, definitely a crooked dealer like Eric said better to sell her a 250 and have her come back alive to buy the 750 in a year or two but now they made a quick buck just to put someone else's life endanger,
Sad sad world we live in as the generations age the care for others diminishes eventually we will repeat the history we have made but I won't be part of that problem ;(
She should have done more research on best bikes for her situation, the dealer was wrong to a certain extent but she must take most of the blame for her lack of understanding of what she was buying. Should have walked away and got some advice, crikey the internet is full of it! (mainly duff advice though)
If she can afford the Gixxer then why not get a cheap ****heap for a few months and learn the basics, keep the prize bike in the garage until it's "Time"
Just my humble opinion of course.
