I received some legal paperwork in the mail this last week -- the good kind. Yamaha just sent me the paperwork for my extended warranty, which is good until 2019! I want to give a "shout-out' to Sean, who works in customer service for Yamaha in California. He was an excellent help in finalizing the details and paperwork for my transaction. You might think this is boring and routine. However, I have had a two year nightmare experience with a different manufacturer (who shall remain nameless due to settlement requirements). Receiving EXCELLENT customer service, with the help of a company employee who really went to bat for me, is so refreshing that I really want everyone on the forum to appreciate Yamaha just a little bit more. Seriously, I think I can safely and conservatively say that I am now a Yamaha rider for life. They have completely changed my mind and attitude about motorcycle manufacturers. And if you ever speak with Sean on the phone at Yamaha customer service, please tell him that Archer is a big fan of his excellent work. ::015:: ::022::
