Re release The battery on this motorcycle isn't charging, so a little investigative work is required to determine the fault. A service is also carried out, changing the oil, spark plug and air filter.
I am always astounded that people don't look after their bikes and then wonder why they break down. Enjoyable vid as always. many thanks for posting. Regards.
I've owned a 2007 model from brand new; there is a replaceable (but easily cleaned and reused) oil mesh screen just inside the clutch housing. Takes 10 minutes to change, but a case gasket is needed if the existing gasket tears or is knackered. Judging by the state of this bike, and since there is no conventional exterior oil filter, it's more than likely it's never been cleaned/replaced. I question the term "Service" too, as the valves weren't checked either. Being screw and lock nut, and the abovementioned seeming general state of the bike, I would almost guarantee the valves are out of adjustment.
Great video, as always. My daughter is training to be a mechanic and I’m kitting her out with tools and wanted to know what test meter you were using? Thanks! Rich
