Thanks for the tips, my mechanic torqued my wheel to 55 even though the manual states 34

Quick question Could over-tightening the rear axle nut (the one used to allow the wheel to be adjusted) caused the rotor to rub the outside brake pad more? I.e the tighter that nut is means it bites more threads which would affect the spacing? Or is this incorrect ?

Kipling and Jutland, he hides in the Purolator parking lot, almost every day in the morning.

Complete engine swap, I sent a pretty nasty email to Hyosung so they covered the labour ad I just got a used engine off of ebay, they took the best parts from both engines and it's running like a champ.

It has since been fixed, the new angle is much better. But thanks for the feedback. I normally wear gloves but I was dying in that +40 heat so I just couldn't do it.

I would love to join.

I finally got my Hyosung back on the road, and uploaded a video, nothing fancy just a casual ride home from work. DOn't mind the beginning, I never use to the kill switch and my co-worker clicked it when I wasn't looking. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH_uvVR5jQc

Haha, very funny. They only stop working when you change their oil, no big deal.

My Hyosung gets about 480km before it is on it's last bar.

The Broken engine does not run at all, it tries to crank but nothing more, I will do as you suggested and just keep it as a whole unit, butchered it as needed.

Sorry to revive a dead thread, just wanted to mention, the engine issue I had was my own vault. I put the oil filter in backwards and the bike is back on the road.

Re: A nice durham cop... and the story behind it I just wanted to share my experience with the Toronto Police. I was riding my Hyosung about a month ago when I had a major engine malfunction that cause me to pull over to the side of the highway. I pulled over and began to tinker with my bike...

I starved my Hyosung Engine for oil by putting the oil filter in the wrong way :( I was just wondering what I could use/take from the engine that would not have been affected by this. Ie will the clutch basket be okay? my friend and I are going to be ripping the old engine apart next weekend and...

I have filed a complaint as suggested.

6300km, we will see where the year takes me. Being 22 insurance plays into it a lot. It was 2500 a year for the Hyo, God knows what a 500 or 300 might cost.

You are correct there was a stub, sadly coming from a CBR125 which has no oil filter I was unaware of that, it is obvious to me now, yet the manual does not make it clear or atleast clear enough for someone as dumb as me :(. I am unsure what I will do in the future, since it was my fault I could...

I'm a tard so I will keep and use as a parts bike.

Engine is pooched as the mechanic told me, he keeps finding "pea sized" aluminum shrapnel inside the motor. A new motor will cost me 3300 dollars give or take after tax. This sucks :( ****ING HYOSUNG! SHOULDA LISTENED

UPDATE #1 I figured since a few people asked I would provide updates about the condition of my bike. It is finally in the shop but they are pretty backlogged and said they cannot really look at it until sometime next week which I assume will be Wed, or Thurs. On a side note, while bringing it...
