So it won't RUN without the effing choke; what the hell are you supposed to do ??

1) B.S. The charge for that alone is usually around $100. I'm sure they routinely give away hundred dollar bills.

2) Total bullshit. When you foul the plug on a single cylinder bike.......it stops running. Is he also telling you that they did NOT check the plug when they had it.......or that it fouled again before you made it off their lot ???

Is there another Suzuki dealer within reasonable distance from you?
This one sounds totally incompetent.
