hey i have a question, yesterday night when i was going riding my bike just didnt want to start, so i thougt it was the battery so i replaced it so it work but it did again when i tried starting it the dashboard lights when out tooand it was still running , so now i dont know what it is they were telling that its problaly the generator can anybody hel me out and tell me how much that part is going to run me.i only have had the bike for like 4 months. i bought it brand new from the dealer.

 

Not sure what the problem is, but if you just got it 4 mos. ago, new, from the dealer, it's under warranty

 

but the problem is that this bike was in backorder her in el paso so i just went ahead and bougth it at an authorized honda dealer in mexico, so now i would have to take it all the way back over just for that, ill problaly waist more money on gas then what ill end up waisting on the bike.

 

If you just got the bike 4 months ago I agree with the others. It should be under warranty still, plus I would call honda customer service and start bitching. If you wheel and deal with them saying service sucks..you know things in that nature you can score some things. But take it back and have it look at. Especially if you just got it. Thank god for the extended warranty.

 

they wont talk **** if i have some aftermarket parts on it like an exhuast a 15 sprocket and air fiter.

 

Hmmm talk to the service dudes and get a feel on how they are. Yeah that can impose a problem with having aftermarket exhaust. Some dealers will get all butt sore but some will not. So you might have to feel them out and see how they are. I know out here in southern california they are pretty cool about it. Did you put the exhaust on yourself? If so I know it can be a pain the *** but if you have to just put the stock can back on so it can get looked at. Thats why I kept my stock exhaust and exhaust valve for situations like that. Hope everything works out for you man

Take care and Semper Fi

 

Take the bike back to any dealer that is an authorised honda agent they are under contract to sort your bike as a warranty job evevn if the bike was bought from another dealer in another country ,honda are renouned to be really good for warranty claims ..

 

Just happened to a friend. The dealer replaced the battery then figured out the armature in the alternator went out. His bike is only 10 months old. All fixed under warranty.

 

You put in a new battery and it still didn't act right? Even if it was the charging system it should run fine on just battery until the battery runs outta juice. Sounds like you may have something loose.

 

Might want to check the fuses if you haven't already
