Not cool at all. Can't believe we would allow this classified to be posted. Bike with "claimed" engine failure listed without any details in classifieds. PLEASE BLOCK AND BAN to avoid someone getting scammed.

It’s a bike for sale, he’s allowed to sell something for a price as he sees fit. He clearly said in the ad to read his story.

I will link the thread and a warning, however.

I would also say that the advertisement must include the existing damage! it is unacceptable to advertise a machine with a defect as "new" and demand that you read through a thread to get your information.

In that regard, I agree with Atucker completely.

In Germany it would be a hidden defect and the sale would not be allowed. Of course you can try EVERYTHING, but then you have to live with possible consequences and also that the purchase has to be canceled if there is a complaint.

Serious looks different.

And just this one more.
I wish I was in Germany. Honda Germany might have been forced to back up their product.
I have NO problem with this or any other of my posts being taken off the board.

As long as we're clear & honest on "what" is being sold - I don't see any issue having it here.

I changed the title of the sale - and added obvious text to the description.

It's not uncommon for people to buy non-running "parts bikes" as a similar example.

In the updated form, this will be pointed out and nobody will be bothered by it anymore. No one will have a problem with that at all. ;)
The unedited form alone could have been understood as a malicious deception. If the staff waved it through, fine, we just pointed it out and gave our opinion.

Regarding the "waived it through" - nothing requires approval from staff.

We rely on what you said - members bringing it to our attention and sharing opinions.

Side note: always remember the Report button on any type of content to ensure we see if needed.

when you say pick up only, do you mean a trailer? does it run? If I live 18km away will I get home if I ride it? :)

Did you ever end up bringing the bike to the dealer for them to look at it? If not, no dealer or manufacturer will tell you the repair or replacement is covered under warranty until they have a tech look at it. This seems like a slam dunk no further questions asked warranty claim. Why are you having so much trouble? For how long did you ride it in the red zone?

GoodDay All.

No trips to the Honda Mechs. They have proved their allegiances. I'll test the bike's integrity by waiting for a very hot day. Then I'll run the bike in my driveway. If it can deal w/its own heat. WOOHOO. If not then I look for a fixer.
I find it strange that experienced riders like yourselves assume such a dire outcome, when the bike was ridden for at maximum ten minutes. It's not like I rode it with no oil in it.
What I was trying to put across is that I bought a NEW bike and engine. Not a NEW bike and an overheated engine. Honda should have stepped up.
I have since heard some very very shady things about dealers and manufacturers. It will curl or straighten your hair.

So next very hot day... I'll know.

BeWell; M

Honda should have stepped up but as you said with “No trips to the Honda Mechs” how are they to fix it? And you’ve given us nothing “real” as far as proof and information in any sort of clear manner.

Experienced riders as ourselves know what happens when you overheat a bike with no coolant in it, and it can be worse than an engine with no oil in it. We also know, or at least get a strong feeling, when people are shady and trying to pull something over others; constantly bashing things and people with no proof or explanation and changing a story over and over again are some of the signs. We also have experienced people making up stories to cover up their own incompetence and post something online to provide a “story” to “prove” something happened a certain way that didn’t.

I’m going to suggest you move on from this forum and try this crap on Reddit. They like this type of BS on there.

Ahh, found you Mr MiWeber929. ( Wonder if I was riding B4 you were born? )
May I retort.
With all the respect due.
I must challenge your statements " We also know, or at least get a strong feeling, when people are shady and trying to pull something over others; constantly bashing things and people with no proof or explanation and changing a story over and over again are some of the signs. "
Being that you are a Staff person. And IMO should be accountable for your own words. I ask that you show us where I was in any way...
" when people are shady and trying to pull something over... " Honest from the start ! Example please .
" constantly bashing things and people... " ( Unless you rep for M.O.Power or Honda Canada. ) ( COME ON ADMITT IT ! )
" changing a story over and over again... " ( EHH? Example please. One will do. )
Any and/or all of those strong statements deserve examples. I've not read over my own stuff . So it's all on my memory and good nature to suspect that you and possibly others have read things in as fact when I was suggesting them as possible problems. In an attempt to cajole Honda into doing the correct thing and handing over a "new" 2021 or better yet a 2022.

We, If you care to be play along. Will definitely find out where your allegiances lay. ( NO? Shirt... if you run a bike w/out oil it's bad ? Really ? )

So do it, don't. What does it matter when... I've got a 2021 CBR650R that screeems. ( 206 at 2nd line after 12k in 4th. B4 the limiter kicks. )
She most likely has lost some longevity. But WOW does it go! ( Though ... I'd like to ride a new CBR1000RR "
With a 2003 St-1300 ( highway hauler ) and a 2007 KLX250s ( township trails ) as well as the CBR in my garage i'm a very happy rider.

BeWell All.
Hope this wasn't to shady of a post.
BeWell; M

If my conversion is correct you are still looking for retail price for a damaged engine?

I am struggeling to understand your justification for this price.
