So my bike was stolen. Two kids walked about a block away with it and a lady confronted them about it being stolen. Lucky for me. So they dropped it on its side and ran. After I got it back I can't see any visable damage. What could be the reason it will not start? This bike is old but has never had problems starting.
Is a honda shadow a good motorcycle? - 1
I have an '03 Honda Shadow Spirit that began stalling on me. It was working fine, and then i took it for a ride and it sputtered and died on me while riding. We managed to get it home by keeping the throttle up kind of high. Is this a clogged fuel filter issue? Also, when we opened it up, it looked like there were 2 fuel filters. Has anyone heard of 2 filters on these bikes? Any help would be appreciated. I need to sell the bike.
A Honda dealership sells both motorcycles and cars. THere area total of 200 vehicles on the dealership's lot. THe detailer cleaned all the wheels of all the vehicles, which totaled 698 wheels. How many motorcycles are there on the on the lot?
It's only done 6,500 miles, its a 125 Honda cg, it's only a spare run about bike of mine but it shouldn't be losing power! Got enough clean oil and full tank too (not like petrol should have anything to do with it) Breaks aren't touching ect why is this?
My bike really struggles to start, I have to hold the ignition down for ages again and again. The engine will keep turning over but it won't accelerate, eventually once it starts and I turn the throttle it is sluggish to pick up revs.
As soon as I let go of the throttle and leave it to idle it cuts out. If I get it started and ride it, sometimes it will go for the full journey, sometimes it just cuts out and slows down very fast whilst moving even with the throttle on.
Also i can hear a popping/puffing sound coming from somewhere in the bike, not sure what that is, or if it is related.
Initially I was having problems with the battery not charging, I fixed that, so I don't think that has anything to do with it.
It's not due to cold, I have stood for five or ten minutes revving the bike to warm it up, it seems to start a bit easier with the choke on initially, but it still takes a long time.
If anyone has any ideas on how it can be fixed, I d like to be able to do it myself as I can't afford the mechanics at the moment, but if I need to take it there I will.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Why we should not buy Honda Livo Bike?
I'm pretty sure its underneath the seat but i don't want to rip the seat off if its not under there.
I'm having tough time for past 6 months with my motorcycle that has battery charging issues. The battery gets fully discharged even when the bike is being ridden, leaving the horn and indicators dead. I took it to service centre and they have replaced the battery thrice, regulator rectifier twice, wiring kit and stator. But the problem still remains unfixed. My bike is a 2005 model Hero Honda splendor (100CC, 4-Stroke). I noticed that this is the first time that I'm using dry cell ( maintenance free) battery. I wonder if my bike is only capable of properly charging flooded battery that I was using earlier without much problem.
Added (1). The mechanic told me that he has checked the vehicle thoroughly but couldn't find the exact cause of the problem. I took it to another service centre of Hero honda but they too failed to identify the problem. They have now temporarily given me a wet cell battery to see if things improve.
I just bought a barn find original 82 cr250r. Bikes in overall good shape for its age. Starts first kick and runs great. All the cosmetics are In good shape except for a small tear in seat. I'm just curious to know what a bike like this sells for. Thanks for looking!
