Where do I begin? Might as well pull up a chair.....

First let me state that in no way do I blame Steve Johns for TRYING to sell me a bike. I finally decided in June to purchase the F800S from Bogarts (Birmingham, AL). That was when I heard that BMW was factory-lowering the bikes (for only $175), as opposed to spending another $1000 for an aftermarket shock. I gave a deposit and watched as Steven entered the order into the system. I was told that I should be looking for my new bike in the fall.

In July, Steve checks on my order to see if it was in cue, and doesn't see it. He contacts the BMWNA Rep to see what the deal was and was told that they weren't going to lower the bikes until January. He (the Rep) had very little concern for my situation. Told Steve to tell me to just buy the shock. Very disappointing. BTW - No Notice of the schedule change.

So I wait patiently for my bike, thinking it'll be here this spring. I got a call from Steve today telling me that when he went to check on my bike, the order was gone. When he checked on it, he was told that they were not going to make the F800S anymore and that my order was canceled. BTW.... No Notice that my order was canceled.

I contacted the Customer Relations people at BMW, told them what you just read here. After being placed on hold for a moment, he comes back and tells me that they were still making the F800S.

WHAT THE PHUK?????

I'm livid... well, I was livid at 10am when I first got the call. Stay tuned, there may be more.....
