    Did we ever figure out what that bolt was for?? Just curious.

    New brakes front and rear. Not quite metal on metal but way too close at 16,000 miles. The mechanic didn't even remove the valve covers. Gave it the "listen with a screwdriver" routine and said we'll lift the covers for the 32,000 mile service.

    I noticed this the other night... And without the cap nut on there, this is what happens: 'I ordered a few cap nuts. 😉 Oughta' be in my mailbox tomorrow. Judging by how far out that was, it must've been like that for a week. Oooops.

    And that's exactly why it should have been in a more general section of the web site such as VFR Info. Owners of 3rd gen, 4th gen, 5th gen, etc. bikes may never peek into the 8th gen section. No reason to unless they're shopping for one!

    Your Mileage May Vary. If in cold weather, I've heard incidents of folks freaking out when their engines failed to crank, but not understanding that the batteries need to warm up first and that you warm up the battery by leaning on the starter button for several seconds.

    Seriously, that's absurd. Why bother having any organization of discussions on this system in the first place? I guess I can start putting all my 8th gen pictures and questions in the 3rd and 4th gen area as long as I include the text "4th gen" in the title?? EDIT: This area seems to be a more appropriate place for a catch-all VFR thread.
  7. Rectaltronics
    Seems straightforward to me...
  8. Rectaltronics
    At the risk of seeming pedantic, I thought this was a thread about 8th gen bikes. Anyway, are those marine grade crimps I see on the alternator input wires?

    Strange, it shows in the fiche, no separate part for the bolt, and no mention of that bolt in the service manual either as far as I can tell.

    In fact, the Honda sevice tech quoted me one hour to do the full warranty repair, which I was a bit surprised by. It would take me an hour just to clear my workbench, read the manual, and crack open a beer. Sometimes it takes me that long just to get the bodywork off, LOL! Well this is a helluva way for Honda to compete with BMW. :-( Good luck everyone.

    I've been having neck problems which have totally screwed up my summer but I really have been wanting to ride up to Seb's place. The compulsion seems almost religious after seeing his work here. It would be like going to Mecca.

    Never thought a 4th Gen could look so good nekkid...

    Beautiful work Seb! But the pic with the lady in the black dress needs moar F-stop.
