How about some input from some of the dealers out there. This is a problem of a bad part (the weak spring) showing up on a significant number of new bikes. Is the factory aware of this and what are they doing about it? The problem of the scorpion (shifter part) has been well known for years but that wasn't fixed at the time GG built my 07 EC250. I know because mine quit shifting until I took the scorpion out and sanded it smooth on the edges (this is a stamped steel part). Don't get me wrong I love my bike and it's been rock solid except these two problems which are easy fixes and show up early when the bike is still under warranty. GoFasters was quick to send me replacement gears for the starter problem and I chose to fix the scorpion myself but I still want to know why bikes are leaving the factory with these two problems.
