  1. That sounds about right , including the repair.

  2. Taking risks to save a customer money is something that needs to be discussed with the customer, and put in writing. I'm a mech, that can weld, but I'd explain the options and opt for pulling the engine.. If they want to save some labour by cutting the bike then it's their risk.

  3. I would agree I’m no pro welder myself and structural integrity would also be my concern plus that takes time also. That’s why I said if was mine I would pull the engine, but you also want it safe for your customers , so I would just take the time and pull the engine,it shouldn’t be too bad .

  4. I totally agree, oil pan needs to be replaced. I know JB weld is a standard cheap fix but i have not had good luck with it. If it was mine i would pull the engine and replace the oil pan, but since it is a rental unit i might be tempted to go with the easier option.

  5. Agreed, i never did find the exact manual for mine either , it was close enough that i could do wire tracing and little things, but was not exact, for yours with the higher end electronics it could be difficult, i hope you find the right manual.

  6. Yamaha wiring, and their ignition systems in particular, are absolutely the worst of any make I've ever looked at West. They change everything from year to year and nothing can be taken for granted. Even when the stator or cdi has the right number of wires and the same colours, it doesn't mean they are compatible. Good work doing a diagnosis and coming to the right conclusion. It's worth the time rather than throwing parts at something when it could just be a broken or shorted wire.. especially if your a mech and have to justify everything you do.. Well done.
