Sorry you’ve had such a rough time of it. Thing with Sinnis is the bikes are built at the dealership so if you get a crappy dealer your likely to get a poor build too. I have a hoodlum and I made sure I checked out as many reviews for dealerships as I could. I haven’t had any major issues with mine other than an issue with the side stand cut out. Took weeks to figure out the problem though. I had my ECU sent back to Sinnis for reflashing before they figured out the cause of the problem. However, all work was done under warranty. Sinnis were not too bad when I ordered a battery from them. In general I would say that you get what you pay for and I can’t really complain about my hoodlum as I’ve had it two years and the only issues I’ve had were the battery and side stand switch. My dealership are very good which seems to be more of a factor than Sinnis itself for me. The comment about passing your test and getting a bigger bike is bang on. I bought mine because it was cheap but Chinese materials have a bad reputation for a reason.
