    I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW ON JUNE 28TH, 2006. ON JULY 7TH, I NOTICED A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF OIL ON MY RIGHT BOOT. MILEAGE AT THAT TIME WAS 269 MILES. I WAS STILL IN THE MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDED BREAK-IN PERIOD, SO I HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE ABOVE 5000 RPM'S AT ALL. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ON JULY 11TH, 2006. THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A HEAD GASKET LEAK/BLOWN HEAD GASKET. TODAY IS AUGUST 3, 2006 AND THE BIKE IS STILL IN THE SHOP. *JB
