Recently got the rear tyre replaced on my 2003 Honda Sabre sidecar outfit. Got lazy and decided not to remove the wheel myself this time but let the dealership do the whole job. Big mistake. They left an axle spacer out and the only thing holding the back wheel in place was the brake pads and brake rotor. Won’t be going back there and from now on will go back to removing and replacing my own wheels. The dealer concerned is getting ready to retire and seems to have lost interest and the person who is taking over has no idea! Bit like when you pay big bucks for something like a valve check/adjustment - was it done properly? Was it done at all?
