    This bike failed with bottom end problems it was repaired by Rochester
    Motorcycles it failed about two months later . Not sure why but the repair
    work was no warrenty.

    My question is , was this engine a lemon ?
    Should we attempt repairing it again ?
    The engine is free cold as it warms up it becomes stiff and will stall at
    idle .
    The bike was well maintained and is in excellent order except for the engine
    ..
    Comments regarding Rochester Motorcycles would be appreciated .
    Guess as too what the problem is ? Odd that it's happened twice ?

    Cheers ideekay

    How long is a piece of string Ian?
    What sort of bike and engine is it?
    What's the problem? What was replaced? Is it the same failure this time?
    Is the engine lubricated correctly? How much use has it had since the last
    repair? Was there any symptoms leading up to the failure?

    If you're just gonna take a bike to a shop and say "make it better; I
    dunno' what's wrong" you may as well be saying "here's my pin number; help
    yourself..."

  4. Errrrr - is that a question, or an order? Either way, I think I'll pass
    this time...

    Thanks anyway!
