RHC: In fairness, the vast majority of locked panels I come up against are
installed by the smaller companies. In my experience, larger firms don't
seem to do this, at least in our area. Unfortunately, consumers sometimes
don't seem to be too sophisticated and let industry of all sorts get away
with all sorts of things, usually because it's cheaper to simply pay again
rather than fight the entrenched bureacracy....

RHC: If it's your first bike, I would recommend you take an approved
motorcycle safety course in your area. It's well worth the time and money
and might just save your life. I've been driving a motorcycle for over 40
years and occasionally retake the course to hone my skills. I always learn
something new every time...
