Quoteuhh... not bringing it back home?

I see it now....  The Stator lying on the Roulette Table, hoping to strike it rich!

Superfly

Ah yes, I too have felt the urge to push her (the bike... just to clarify!!) into the desert......
A bad marrage is like dirty carbs... It just makes everything else suck.

MrMe

Yea im bringing her home .... but there are worse places to be broken down....

QBS

Don't ever leave home without a known good spare TCI box.  It will easily fit in the tool kit tail light area.

You can lean a Vision against a tree, remove the alternator cover and replace the stator, and the oil won't spill out.

Yamaha must have anticipated this repair and planned ahead.
