Is it unreasonable to ask for a loaner rig when your new machine is in the shop for warranty work?

I'd bet if you guys actually sat down and added all the money you had into yours, you'd be sick. I just did it all at once. Lol


@jtw has spent more money on broken axles than you've spent on half your accessories. He just wont admit it cause he sucks at math.

I got my Talon on the 27th, had it for 3 weekends and the dealer had it last weekend and has no idea when they will be done with it. So for sure this week end and I'm betting next weekend. Which, at that time, will be half of the time I've owned it.

Of course, I don't "need" it to get to work or anything,l like if my truck were at the dealer. But I didn't spend almost $40k on this machine (with tax and accessories) to miss out on trip after trip.

This is my first experience with a new powersport machine, so I'm curious, Would it be unreasonable to ask for a loaner rig?

If it’s your transportation to work I suppose not.....

Ah, makes sense now. In reality I'd ask for extended warranty for the trouble ya know?

Heck yeah, that would be worth more than a loaner.....

If it works ok for your rides see if you can pick it up for the weekend rides and return it on Monday. It will get fixed but it does suck to miss rides and your Polaris buddies will be having way too much fun at your expense.

They have it all torn apart and it pops out of low range.

I hope you have your Talon back. If not you might want to try creating an escalation case with American Honda Motorsports. I had good luck when I bent the frame on my1000R and was told it was going to be 3 months for a new frame On back order. AHM was very motivated to help me get my Talon back on the trails and had a tracking number to my dealer within two days of my escalation and the frame arrived in 3 days. I know it is a different situation but wanted to throw it out.

I did ask for a loaner and was told a hard NO. They said we saw what you did to yours and don’t loan to people like you. Then the service writer asked if my address and phone were still the same from a month earlier when I bought it. It was all in good fun.
