Wow...those pictures really bring it home. I live about 200 miles SE of this area. My town has been sending busloads of volunteers to Fargo -...
Ghost...I can agree with your previous post. Honda does have a bit of 'grounding' issue on this bike. Matter of fact, the recent recall on late...
True...and good for you CARMINE. I've done the same to 'fail' a cut relay and it's worth a try in this case. In my experience though it's not...
As 199Q has found out and stated in the previous post...yes, you can completely remove the R/R and the bike will still run...of course until...
Keep in mind also that your fuel pump is allowed to work through the fuel cut relay, which is wired to your ignition. So...if you lose spark,...
I don't think 500 would be too bad for a GOOD used engine with a gaurantee. You could easily spend far more than that fixing the one you have....
Wasn't watching the forums much in October, but I read through this thread now, since it was made current. I tend to think part of the...
You should inspect the speedo gear mounted on the front wheel. Elevate the front wheel so you can spin it, take your cable off the wheel, notice...

I would price and get a number at a Honda dealer. Sometimes parts for different years are listed until the part is actually priced or...
You didn't ID the exact model. Check your fuses. Check your work. Do you have and know how to use a multimeter?
Might as well test 'em before you buy to make sure. It's pretty easy. You need an ohmeter...do you have one? They go from the engine to the...
And I agree the pick-up...or pulse generators you mentioned earlier in the post are high on the list of culprits. Over the years, I've seen many...
Sounds great...good thinkin'
It is hard...welcome to my world. It's the simplist way to know for sure. I was thinkin' if you removed the side cowls before you ride you could...
I don't know if it's THE problem but it's a potential future problem. If you lost contact on those thick wires you would either lose all your...
Yea...check chain and sprockets...broken tooth on the front....kinked links...too tight.
Intermittent probems can be tricky...bench testing switches and relays usually isn't very effective unless they're dead out failed. I would...
It sounds like about 500$ of your shop bill went to training the techs. Also sounds like the dealership in question has a lack of communication...
