My 675 went through 3(!) regulators a stator, and a shift star
Most of my other bikes I just broke the shit out of or were stolen young, so they don't count.
My SDR, yeah, clutch cover.....again. I've already had one clutch cover replaced, I can't wait to hear what this one is. Bike goes back in Tuesday, pulled it apart re-torqued everything to manual spec WITH locktite on off chance that something was rattling loose. No dice, it held for all of 50 miles before I stopped to check it and smelled the sweet smell of motorex burning on the catalyst. Seem like its coming from around the water pump area, from there around the front of the cover was were I keep finding the fasteners fouled with oil.
At least it gets me home, the 675 I found each broken part the hard way, made for a lot of begging for people to go to my house get my truck and come save me.....oh and one 210 mile trip in 2nd gear.....because the shifter wouldn't move.
