swing arm removal for a chain? Really? Just a chain tool to rivet and "endless" chain on.
45 minutes to prepare battery? Time to find another dealer.Better yet, time to find A dealer, this one obviously thinks being a dealer means dealing.
Prepping a VLR battery takes a minimum of two hours. Better yet leave it overnight.Pete
OP - was this GP?
Problem is John that if you wait for them to fail catastrophically there may well be further engine damage and they won't cover that. Get it inspected by someone with a clue, as you saw, it's only half an hour's work.If, as I suspect, there is damage you can take pics, go back and tip them an extra arsehole!Pete
AGM batteries are a plug and play, there is no prep unless you have none on hand, even then, walk into most shops and the batteries are ready to go.AGMs leave the manufacturer sealed, no prep. There is no acid to add, no liquid to add and they are charged.If they aren't charged, an AGM can be charged very quickly, their rate of accepting a charge is very high. Their self discharge very low.Maybe they are putting different batteries in the bikes headed down under?
Probably an endless chain . Had to grind the pins out of a link on Jay's Kawasaki Police Special to remove the chain . Replaced with a standard master link version . Dusty
break the chain and rivet a new "endless chain" on. You can use a chain breaker or a grinder and then rivet the chain on with a punch. No master link.
It's a Yuasa. All I know?
Tappets were proclaimed to be fine and it was reassembled before any pics were taken or contacting me so I'm sure I'll be covered in case they fail. Pfft! Where's my beer?
This all sounds like the Indiana dealership that was really a shoe salesman.
Pete, I'm referring to AGMs, same as found in bikes like the Norge straight from the dealer. Bought more than a few, various applications. They are shipped directly from the manufacturer sealed, no provisions for adding acid. You really can't add acid to AGM batteries, the mats inside are saturated from the factory.
