Hold up private collections? Sorry I missed that one. Do you have a link on that? I haven’t seen that stated yet
That sounds about right! And about average for every older vehicle I’ve had once they start causing these rabbit holes type issues
Yes but it almost never does anything
They can not only garnish your paycheck but also your social security aka retirement money…
The fact they still say they have faith in the dipshit is astounding
They do, though admittedly I’d steer anyone towards Honda over anyone else for price and longevity. We have a 1978 Honda in the garage that runs almost like new still!
Now I won’t say motorcycles are as safe as cars (statistically they’re not), but I will say it is less risky than many people think. The majority of fatal crashes involve no helmet and a very large portion involve alcohol unfortunately. The average commuter who gear up is fairly safe if they’re conscious of the weather and road. Plus they make vest worn airbags now that are showing incredibly promising things if you do know someone who rides. Something like a 89% reduction in spinal injuries. (YouTube link)
No clue. Swore I’d never buy another Yamaha…but I failed and have another one. This one I’ve had to do nothing but normal maintenance on and it looks like the same thing. 2 sizes of Allen keys and a socket wrench to remove the plastic fairings just to get to the oil filter for an oil change.
I’ve just started to budget for a mechanic doing all the larger maintenance on it this time!
So there is an exception to my past statement. Yamahas. The last one I took the engine apart on every bolt was a different damn socket size!
Usually yes. The bike I work on the most the whole motor falls out the bottom if you remove five bolts so even large overhauls are manageable. Other routine maintenance things are also placed in convenient places.
The clutch is on the side of the motor (usually the bottom left) and come out with just that cover removed.
The suspension I replaced without any tools besides a socket wrench as I could put them on the wheel and just lift the wheel by hand to place it correctly onto the other side of the frame.
It hasn’t been consuming oil or misfiring, so I don’t think it’s that, it is showing more signs of an air leak from what I can tell
