Re: Bought a bike that was under water. Help.
Sounds good - take it out for a 1/2 hour or so ride rather than let it sit running at idle in the driveway for 5-10 min. The bike doesn't cool well and doesn't produce any significant battery charge just sitting. I would bet that if all your electrical connections, like lights, brake lights, directional signals, cutoff switches in the kickstand and clutch and RUN/OFF are working, you will have no problems with this bike. Check the battery voltage at high idle (2500rpm at least) to see if the charging system is working (should put out at least 13.8-14.8 V).
Lube the throttle, brake, clutch cables too. By the way - you work FAST. Login or Register to Remove Ads |
