Good point. Once we get her handle bar reach set up to fit, we’ll look at the controls alignment. None of it seems to be too far out her comfort range, but I know from experience that small tweaks can sometimes make a big difference in developing that second-nature interaction with the bike. She's a "I'll do it myself" kinda girl, so I'll look it over with her, but step back and let her take satisfaction in working with her own bike.

I don't think this is anything out of the ordinary. I think just about everyone on here (me included) has had this experience. Dealers just don't seem to care anymore.
Yah, we got the feeling that they weren't doing anything that was not specifically requested and paid for, even at the point of purchase. They told us up front that the 600 mile check would cost $320.00… Strikes me as a bit steep. Well, I guess that’s why forums like this one draw so many members… sharing information and doing what you can by yourself.
