I bought a 06 Yamaha heres to hoping mine stays as nice as it’s been so far

[@Yamasetsui]

Same here 😅

[@fema_tequila7382]

Glad to see am not the only who wears a watch revered

[@devilsoffspring5519]

Make sure you don't have any electrical shorts. It might start a fire. Intermittent electrical faults can be bad connections but they can also be insulation that has worn away and now you have a short!

My old Suzuki S40 did the same thing. Turns out the stock air/fuel intake with vacuum line system would stop working. The fix was to install a manual petcock from a Yamaha Raptor 660, which bypassed the vacuum hose and directly put gas into the carburetor with the on/off switch. It looks like this bike is fuel injected? From the last clip, it looks like you were able to fix the problem? Once you get it all ironed out, you’ll know everything about this bike and you can make it continue to run forever.

[@hunterrides]

it is indeed Fuel injected. it had a bad ground to the fuel pump causing it to stop running so after just doing the straight wire its been fine.......not even worried about messing with wires/plugs on this harness its already to far chopped up by a prev owner to fix and it has to have a new one (well it needs a new one if i want engine temp readings and a non spotty wiring system lol)

[@denox420]

was that full throttle? and tbh mic quaility its pretty damn good at speed.

[@hunterrides]

I have yet to actually go wide open. It’s the wind noise that bothers me. Got to find a way to cut down on that sheit😂

[@devilsoffspring5519]

@@hunterrides You could try riding with earplugs. Motorcyclists that ride on the highway a lot sometimes wear them because it prevents hearing loss due to constant wind noise at highway speeds, which can get very loud.

[@hunterrides]

@@devilsoffspring5519 well usually i have airpods in which isnt ear plugs but....in this case i was talking about the wind noise the mic picks up at higher speeds

[@devilsoffspring5519]

@@hunterrides Ok, there probably isn't a lot you can do about it if it's being picked up by the mic. Best you can do is turn off the mic at highway speeds (or reduce the gain so it isn't so noisy, but it reduces the volume of your voice recording too)

Bullshit, buying a used sport bike is fine, once it is inspected by an independent inspector…..NOT a dealer, not some guy who says he knows bikes. There are people that do these kind of inspections….not cheap. Just remember that ANY vehicle will require some maintenance and replacement parts. Fuel pumps are one of those things that either just go out. Sometimes they give you warning. Most of the time they don’t. Wiring is ALWAYS a problem due to the greater majority of people not understanding how wiring works. What you are showing is the normal crap of “I can do it” dummy jobs. Even most “professionals” are wiring idiots.

I feel like you skimmed through the video and listened to zero of what I said😅

[@fatman-sam]

did you listen to the video at all dude? or did you listen to the first 3 mins and then write the comment LMAO 🤡

[@RowdyRide]

Watch the video retard

[@CopperHeadProjects]

there's no perks to getting rid of a Grom only negatives like the longing to buy another Grom. P.S. you can own 2 bikes :)

[@denox420]

why is old iphone camera quality so decent o.0

[@baitmaster8706]

Yeah it sounds like you just learned that you get what you pay for lol. I built an SV from ebay part outs and it fucks so I hate to say it but this video sounds like a mechanical skill issue. Should rename it "Don't buy shit you're not willing to learn about"

[@hunterrides]

Changing title now🤓. Watch the video and listen next time bum. It’s just the title the whole video I repeated how much I was loving working on the bike. But again weird bums like yourself go to yap in comments without any context

[@derekr3895]

@@hunterrides Definitely a mechanical skill issue. That thing runs like fucking dogshit. SV650s can get with it. Yours barely moves. Why are you riding a bike that clearly isn't running correctly in the first place . . . then complaining about it and then trying to gatekeep others from buying used bikes? When you wreck from the likely 15+ year old tires that are on it are you going to blame it on something other than your own stupidity as well?

[@hunterrides]

Please list a time stamp where i attempt to “gate keep” anyone from buying anything? Your so weird 😂 I said over and over and over that I loved the bike I loved the process of working on the bike. I wish you could tell me more about how the bike runs like shit. Is it because I didn’t crack the throttle wide open or is it because your ego was scared that I was bashing your bike?

[@RowdyRide]

Did you actually watch the video retard? Holy shit you're retarded.
