Curious what the reason(s) for stranding were in those instances? Lots of Hondas stranded from time to time out here. Of course that isn't surprising considering the number of them. And 5000-10,000 miles/year is rather ordinary with any of them.
Evening Klik,
The first time was the fuel system, the second time was the electrical. The fuel system was on an older carburetor model. The float bowl sank and that was that. Luckily we were not to far out and still on good ground.
The second was a newer 700? Anyway nice bike until it quit. The part of the system that keeps the battery charged quit working and the machine ran out of spark a long way from camp.
I know folks that really like the Yamaha and have had good experience with them, just with my experience I won't buy one.
