The shop owner did ask me if I was bringing in the bike or just engine. I told him bike but if it is a really easy job to separate the engine, I guess I could ask the bike shop where it is know to help me. Then I would not have to hire a tow truck (or whatever truck) from the repair shop. The negative would be that I would have to go pick up the engine and drive it back to where the frame is as oppossed to just driving the bike home from the second repair shop. I do not know if I am under warranty or not. I think that kymco is helping me because they stand behind their product and this "injury" should not have occurred at anytime under usual circumstances.
