Title: New Guy Here
Post by: Pablo.gyds03 on September 16, 2020, 12:08:38 AM

Hey all,
New guy here, recently picked up an 05 Grand Vista. It sat for about 5 years due to a charging system issue, I replaced the stator last week and I'm waiting on a new regulator rectifier to come in (old one burned out and burned the wires) Other than that the bike runs great. New plug, battery, fresh gas, adjusted the valves and a carb clean. I think I need a new auto bystarter as well since it doesn't like to idle when it's cold.
A few things that need to be done but are not mission critical.
Replace left Mirror
Replace misc missing fairing bolts
Convert headlight to an LED
Replace top throttle cable
Brake fluid and coolant flush

If anyone is parting out a bike let me know!
Thanks

Looks like you've bought yourself a bargain there Paul.  A bit of TLC such as that you're proposing should see you with a mount which will last for years of enjoable riding!  Thanks for the photos and welcome to the forum.
