It seemed to run just fine to me. I don't race it around though. I'm hearing it helps to ride it real hard every now and then. I just always put 91 octane and after I drove it to work one day (a 35 mile trip) it didn't start after I got off work. Pretty weird. I finally got it started after...
I agree. The dealership here (North County Yamaha in San Marcos California) do not have technicians that can diagnose. They can see the end result and replace bad parts, but they cannot tell you why it occurred in the first place. My suspicion is the valve seats were not pressed correctly and...
Well I finally got my motorcycle back. Six months later! I had to pay $1200. Yamaha corperation and the dealership are blaming it on the gas. Yamaha corporation are recommending I use (what do you know!) a Yamalube product called "Engine Med" in every tank of gas. I am currently writing up...
Thanks for your response, I wish I would have the same experience. It is trippin me out because the fix is only $1200. And to be so stubborn over it is strange to me.
Aegis Powersports Extended Service Contract continues to stonewall me. After presenting them with specs on piston rings being out of spec., they again responded with the "poor fuel" excuse for the massive carbon buildup. They also said there is a normal and acceptable amount of oil leakage and...
Thank You for that info. I'm still getting the run around from the extended service contract company. Even though it was pointed out that one or more of my piston rings is out of spec at 16,000 miles. Beware of Aegis Powersports extended service contract company! They are really trying to...
What is also funny is these are the out of spec rings that the dealership provided me measurements on. They said nothing about the third ring. Super unimpressed with their "lead technician".
Yes it is an extended service contract the dealership sold me when I bought the motorcycle. It is called Aegis Powersports. I gave them $1,215 for this extended service contract that covers the whole motorcycle, all systems, etc. against "mechanical failure".
I found out in the last couple days that the top piston ring on one of the pistons is at its limit as far as specs go and the second ring was out of spec. They called Aegis powersports for a second claim with new information and Aegis is sending an adjuster out again tomorrow to look at the...
