Engine trouble... awaiting diagnosis
#24
I called my service dept today at closing time. It took them two days of trying (Sat & Mon), but they finally reproduced the rattle I've been hearing since I picked up the bike. They will contact Honda tomorrow to find out if there are similar incidents. They didn't commit to a diagnosis, but did say it "sounds like an oiling issue" and oil not getting to "the top end". If that is the case, then I've been riding the bike for 2100 miles with serious flaw. I have no idea what mfr do in situations like this, but I certainly cannot ride the bike the way it is. Will they want to tear down and rebuild the motor? Replace the motor? Replace the entire bike? I have no idea. I'll just have to wait and see what they (dealer and Honda) decide to do.

Anyone have a similar experience with any bike they owned?
