I have been wrenching on these machines since I was 15-now I'm 45-in my own shop. I just wanted to throw this out for your perusal. I am SICK of opening up chaincases and clutch covers only to find out I'm the FIRST one to actually check the ****. If you don't KNOW your mechanic, try putting some clear fingernail polish in a few of the screw heads holding the inspection covers in place. If they charge you for a full service, the polish should be busted up where they used (in most cases a T27) their tools on the fastener to truly adjust your chain and clutch.
Rampant? You have NO idea-it's at LEAST 7 out of every 10 bikes! If you can't see it and it's not making noise, they will let it go until it becomes a problem, and then they'll tell you it's not a warranty issue and slap you with a Godless bill. These bikes are INCREDIBLY dependable-it's the so-called "techs" that are failing you.
