Re: Head gask. or exhaust man. gask?
Not sure how often you guys hire lawyers, or maybe they work a lot cheaper in Georgia, but, for damages under 5K it is rarely worth it to hire an attorney. Frankly, I don't recommend lawyers unless you are faced with losing your home, your life savings or your freedom. (Typically the people that come out the best in these suits are each parties lawyers.) However, you can sue the place without an attorney in small claims court. The amount you can sue for varies by state. Sometimes you can get pretty good results just reading up on the process and then letting the dealer know that, if you dont get a replacement bike, you are going to file in small claims. Make sure you have all of your documents and pictures and keep a log of the sordid details.
If you have a friendly lawyer, you might get them to send a nasty letter for a few hundred bucks, but if you plan on court appearances, etc. it's probably going to cost you more than you could buy a used GZ for.
