No, their plugs. And, I agree with all of what you posted. Just drove it back, told them the symptoms and walked home. A little pissed and depressed. I'm supposed to b leaving soon on a xcountry tour.
Yea, im glad its a honda. And, i dislike being patient.My money is on a problem with the plugs or the plug wires - BTDTGTTS - from dealer!
What I told the mechanic is to check the color of the plugs and one or more of them would not look right.
Three days later they called and said they had messed up one of the plug wires.
You might be surprised, check the Terminals at the Battery.
Will do. I hope u r right
Why? the bike runs.
OK, it runs, but not well. It sounds like it may be electrical, I suggest the bypass as sometimes they fail, I have experienced that. It was a suggestion,
What ever happened to a test ride after working on the bike? My car mechanic does a test ride before and after customers drop their cars off. It's good business, too. And this guy is probably the most honest mechanic in town.
Porcelain is still sparling white on all four.
I don't think one carb out of synch is going to buck, it will just be down on power and run rougher with more vibrations.
So don't be afraid to work on your bike.
Unfortunately this might not be practical for Mike, but I do agree with you. I think Mike is in Boston, and I think his ST is stored in a parking garage so the prospect of DIY becomes a less likely option.Unfortunately all too common. It's why I try to do the majority of the maintenance on my bike by myself. The things I can't do I get to watch em repair my bike. Like I said it's a shame that your bike is running worse instead of better after they worked on it. Probably something minor that they forgot to do. Remember the old saying i can screw my bike up as well as the dealer
