Well, we have our first oh shiitake moment! If it is the crankshaft sensor, it's part of the STATOR! $650!! BREATHE!! BREATHE!! LOL Okay, so that's bringing the total to $1850 so far, still a good deal. Here's the next question. Before we buy this CKP and stator, anyone know where we can get one cheaper?

Would you happen to have anything for a Burgman 650?  We got a SWEET deal from an older guy that had inherited a non running bike when his nephew passed away. It wouldn't run, suspecting the CKP, crank position sensor, but we also need a drivers backrest and the large trunk with backrest. We'll need the windshield also. If you can get any of these parts, let me know how much before we go ordering them from the local dealer. Thanks! |

I think we got a GREAT deal! $1200 and we think we know what's wrong with it.  This thing is set up more like a car than a bike! Right up Dwayne's alley as far as working on it. I'll post pictures in a few minutes! Thank you so very much for the service manual JR!  |

Thanks JR! As usual, you have rescued the novice! We're hoping there's not a lot wrong with the bike. I'd love to buy the bike from the man, but we're not going to screw him over for it. |

Hi Guys and Dolls, Hope everyone is having some good scootin' weather. ;D We have the chance to buy a 2008 Suzuki Burgman 650 for $1000 or less, depends on how good we are at bargaining. It is what I would consider pretty low mileage, around 4k, bought used with 450 miles on it a few years ago by a man that drove it around town mainly. He passed away and now his grandson has the bike. It's sat up for about a year without being started, no fluids drained, battery in place.  BAD OWNERS! It won't run at this point, but we're sure we can free her up and make her purr again. Does $750-$1000 seem reasonable to you for a bike that old? She still looks good, but body don't count and we know it. LOL |

I've gotten so used to mine hanging up now and then that I can reach under the bike quicker to open it by pulling the cable than I can by using the key. LOL Suggest you use graphite powder in all your lock cylinders as well. Happy scootin'!

I've done the cold pack thing, and it does help! Riding here in Louisiana during July and August is torture!

I found mine at Advance Auto. ;  You should be able to get them. But if you can get the bent ones, great! We couldn't find them locally, and I wasn't giving up riding long enough to order them off line! |
