Photo is 2015, cart last used 2021. Google efforts to find the maker of the cart have failed. Asking the universe or the more internet savy. Owner does not recall where it was made. Staff suggested maybe new jersey. AI suggested perhaps Amish. Any guesses appreciated
Just landed Colorado Springs for the first dealership visit while on vacation (525 miles) and booked service at 8 months. My intent is to ask about the paint warranty for two spots, that lifted. The 1/1/26 software fluke resolution that has the brain saying its 2000 days past service, finally the AC oddities and inconsistency unless you roll the 20 sided dice correctly. I would ask for any suggestions that might be beneficial to ask or request when at the dealer. My drive yesterday in the winds averaged 9-10 mph at 84-86 mph. I knew it was going to suck moving on the super slab, but I expected a little more than 185 miles before critical fuel.
Edit: No paint issue, dirt found its way under ppf in two places. Added the Bosch blades.
Update: The mothership chimed in and said to have some valve changed that could be sticking occasionally causing erroneous AC fluctuations. Upside, warranty. downside full day effort and pulling the dash. Surprised efforts Service technicians staying after hours today so the vehicle is available to me again tomorrow morning sometime. That sure was an unexpected gratuity as the vehicle was not needed before Wednesday afternoon. Hoping for the best.
Service manger John and Salesman Eric have been great today and personal at Red Noland Ineos. Eric turned me on to the brand a year ago.
Alignment request is a little more involved with adjustable track arms, more labor and time. And a consequence of mods. Putting it on the machine to see how fair its out, before tackling.
The also now carry a Colorado brand of rear drawers Air down, Gear up unfamiliar to me. If any users see this thread and have an opinion please share. Before any consideration their system is 5K installed, 6K if you want the fold down platform too for sleeping applications.
Financial logistics after new gear, priorities. How do you see it? Status: New Bike, New Gear, Old rider.
Would you spend X dollars for a trailer to bring your toys to the track arriving as a green track novice with limited book smarts trying to figure it out. Then 2027 becomes the earliest school.
Or
Fly, rent and attend a couple 2 day schools, champs, California Super Bike, or both in 2026. And have that limited education before arriving to any track and 2027 becomes the trailer goal.
Big picture eventually is a smaller track only ride. But not anytime soon.
Just arrived this week via DHL. No complaints on fit, at inaugural stretch. It appears unworn but date of manufacture stamp was 2024 so two years NOS from Italy direct, MSRP minus 20% coupon code. Yet to locate any directions, user manual or data regarding the integrated airbag system. Yet to charge. Only drawback was the 15 day return policy. I have no near brick and mortar and ordered a size medium dry suit which cross references (48), to fit a size (50) Mugello 3, the larger sized dry suit would be better despite its cross reference to size (52). [508/155#) Return DHL shipping to attempt exchange was above $100 and the closest drop location was a hour drive away. No win in that regard.
**😁Update** Corporate Dainese extended in good faith as requested given the dynamics. That harmony earns my repeat business. Still don't have the approximate costs for a one off and the timeframe but asked in email today. Needed to clarify the return policy tho, not on a custom suit but ordering two sizes 48, and 50 keeping one returning the other. Stay tuned**.
If you snooze you lose!!! Yesterday 5/27 I was ready to pull the trigger and order the Mugello. I fit for it last month on vacation in a size 50 but left thinking a 48 might be better and it wasn't in stock. Yesterday was the Dainese memorial weekend sale 20% off, free shipping. My intention was to order both, and the Metal 7 gloves and keep the better fit and return the other. (50 above) I saw online In Phoenix the Dainese store had both in inventory. I have a friend in the community so maybe an excuse to reserve in store, fly and fit, skipping the mailing return experience. It was recommended to me I find out the price point difference to order custom works, a tailored fit before deciding between a one off and the Mugello. Email sent.
Fast forward to today, in the shopping cart the holiday coupon vaporized and no return email regarding my inquiry. I called this afternoon and inquired and was told sorry, the sale ended yesterday.-- No soup for you. (Seinfeld) Knowing the newest cosmetic is likely coming later this year but more importantly 20% on $6000.00 is real cheese. Was it really too much to ask for an extension in consideration for half a day? The company doesn't track prior purchases as I have made significant in three different locations and always needed to reestablish my customer data.
Because I spoke of cheese, I'll now stop the whine. It's hard to part with the coin, even on a holiday sale.
If anyone is affiliated and would tip off any future such offers, it would be appreciated. More-so if a friends and family code that could be used immediately. In the past they have been first responder friendly too, but you need the credentials in hand for those in the field.
I know, first world problems but damn Im a little pissed at holding out wanting more information at the deadline, after hours.

All responses appreciated, even if just cutting sarcasm. I really enjoy the motorcycle cycle forums here.
