This must have happened after the last long trip. I am sure this will be a warranty thing but I doubt anyone stocks these things. I will be having the 25000 or should say 24000 up service in the next few weeks. been quoted $750 plus and $850 plus so I am shopping around for a better price. attachment=9392:Left Side Crack

Right side crack

Thanks everyone on the advise. I will have it done at a good shop. I understand a new shop is going to open in Roseville, Ca. anyone know about that and where it is at. don't want to ride to far with the fender brackets like they are.

Just my opinion, if you are having all the scheduled maintenance preformed, the price you are seems reasonable. Any less in price, I would question exactly what is being done. :thumbs:
Yes the brackets are covered under the two year warranty.

Bummer on the brackets, I've seen that a couple times.

I agree with Tharken on the service, make sure you end up at a place you can trust 100% and that you know exactly what they will do. It's usually money well spent if done right.

you are being quoted a fair dealer price if they do all the required work and not cut corners.
I was told there is a lot of man hrs to to this service if they check the heads.
