start saving and looking for a newer bike now ;)
you don't need anyone here to give you permission to go ahead and get that bike.
hang in there buddy. the guy who sold you the bike knew it had that problem for sure. :confused:
crikey ! it would be madness not to have the manual. :eek:
an uncommon failure but it does happen [ATTACH]
unplug r/r first
following on from terry's idea................crank for awhile then pull a sparkplug. if it's dry, you're not injecting fuel, and you have a FI...
GRUM will have an answer for you. try unplugging the r/r first to see if smoke stops, and try to find the exact location of the smoke.
grum is the maximum 'lectickal expert, so go by what he says. i say if you have 4 sparks at 4 plug wires, there is nothing wrong with the ecu....
i remember once that i covered a leak hole with aluminum foil and then covered that with the JB and it held up well cuz fuel wasn't touching the JB.
this is the one i fuckedup riding drunk like an idiot. no rust ! [ATTACH]...
if you get sparks to all 4 plugs the ecu is probably fine.
maybe you could try contacting caswell to find out if they know of a solvent to remove the liner ? whatever it might be it's gonna be nasty so...
fits CB750 and many others from the '70s. like new condition. $18+ shipping from 14260 [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

it's easy enough to bump the engine over by rolling in gear or with the starter motor. ****** so there is no real need to remove alternator cover...
you went the cheepo route and got crap, hope you spend bigger for wheel bearings. probably inferior metallurgy and won't last as long as better...
almost sure thAT'S a result of not having a proper drain/vent tube on the battery, fairly common.
better to remove shift lever and put it in a vice to bend, not on the bike.
