Hi
Background info first, took delivery of brand new blade march last year 2008 when first came out aside of problems with the fairing getting holes in by stones all the time, did 10,000 miles on road and at the ring, 3 months ago strange noises from engine, bike goes to dealer, Honda inform that a new clutch and clutch basket to be fitted, noise still there next stage is a complete counter measures kit including primary drive, engine bearings etc basically a full engine rebuild.
Explained not acceptable and eventually after much discussion and help from local dealer who were brilliant it was agreed that I could get a new 09 blade at reduced cost.
2700 miles on new 09 blade same engine problems again bike going to dealer
Has anybody had the same problems or engine rebuilds as this getting crazy bike does not seem fit for purpose
Any advise or info would be great
Thanks

 

No problems at all on my bike, but much less mileage than you.
