Yeah, the recall was prior to the sale and it wasn't on consignment. Sage advice about pushing diplomatically. I may farm for any ins with the dealership. Again, I'm not losing count of how lucky I was you guys had this thread up. Thanks for the advice Chris -

The battery hasn't been changed since purchase in '05. The model is an 02 so I'm assuming it's the OEM as it's that dysfunctional little GS S.O.B. Obviously an older battery but not many miles on the bike (4K) and I didn't have any issues with it until investigating after the thread.
