Re: "The customer wondered why their bike wasn't responsive"
Holy mother of god.
Are people that unaware of whats going on between their legs? the scary thing is that chain doesn't look too bad externally. The owner is definitely too stupid to own a motorcycle. |

Re: "The customer wondered why their bike wasn't responsive"
Someone brought me a 350 Yamaha some years ago complaining of 'terrible clutch slip', even if you were completely blind the awful noise from the chain and toothless sprockets should been impossible to ignore I would have thought. Apparently not.
I'm surprised it moved at all.
