That's true. If it were affordable, I would love to fix it. I don't have the knowledge to fix it. I'm in Louisville ky. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

If they can't get into the wiring to fix it, which they can't, then I can't trust it. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

A seriously over due report: Yamaha technician called me today. The bike worked fine for him at first, asked him to look under the tank and check it over. He called me back and literally said to me if it were his bike he would get rid of it. Apparently the fuel pump is a junkyard variation that...

This is very true. So then, red is a stronger hold. I never knew there were variations in strength of loctite. I don't know why I was thinking the loctite would block the connection. But at least it's bolted and not an amplifier type screw down socket. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

Thank you! Why red? I use white for all my guns and the like... I'm assuming the compound is electrically conductive. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

Very true. We will see what the shop comes up with. Although I'm not certain why the battery terminal would be loose. I understand vibration and all that, but I had just installed a new jumper cable and being a cabling technician as my main pay, I always make sure my wires are tight. Probably...

I agree that both these things are not likely the issue. I do not remember smelling gasoline, and the oil was definitely honey colored, no milkiness Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

Also, would this be immediate failure? Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

You're saying I would smell gasoline off the dipstick? Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

So let's address what happens if you have too much oil? Does anyone know? It just so happens that when I checked my oil before I checked it cold, it was on the side of the road and it was very hot. The curve of the hill meant I had to push the bike back onto the side stand repeatedly. This...

Lol, I'll have to yell at my father for that one. OK. That's good to know. If I measured the oil incorrectly, it probably isn't burning like I thought it was. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

I was always taught to check my oil cold because the expansion of hot oil will give an inacurrate reading. As for the center stand. My garage is reasonably flat, and I would center stand it, but with it still being lowered in the back, it's incredibly difficult. Sent from my SM-G965U using...

Oh! And I paid ten bucks to run the VIN, since I've had so many issues with it, I wanted to see what the owner history was really like. First owner didn't even put in 2,000 in seven years, the next two account for another 2,000, then myself. So the odometer is accurate, which makes this case...

I called them today, they haven't had the chance to touch it yet. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

Thank you, I will do my best not to get cheated. But honestly, they could cheat me a little and I'd be OK with it if the gremlins left. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
