how ya Owen, jaysus ya have that 900 a long time now. So your starter motor was nackered too then?
Yup, I've yet to find a bike that does what I need AND will fit my various ailing body parts
I went to the NEC in '18 to see if there was anything more comfy & modern, and came away massively unimpressed with the latest offerings.
The starter motor's still doing the business, but the mechanic wasn't prepared to say how LONG that might last with the current one.
He really didn't want to get involved in replacing it, the costs & possible extra work needed were expected to be more than the bike's worth..... Of course that may have been influenced by me telling the guy who came to pick it up that my biking days were probably over
I'm planning on running it until it dies again, and if that's just the rest of the summer, well so be it - I had fun while it lasted.
