Seems the car won’t even boost the bike, cranks and turns over but not enough to start tho

Gonna see if I can boost it off the car here, and yes the car will be off lol

lol. I I haven’t got a clue but I’m just saying that’s it’s a yusa battery and that I have no clue how long it been in the bike for nor can I see a manufacturer date or anything in it really

Battery was in the bike when I bought it like month ago tops. It has a yusa battery

It just odd if battery is dead cu it always started good and now it just nothing tho seems odd

So when I just checked the battery with my volt metre I’m at 12.79 when it off and then with key on and I try to start (hit the start button) it drops to 6-7volts

I’ve also had the charger on the battery all afternoon thinking it was such but nothing still

All fuses are good I can hear starter relay clicking lights on dash come on yes I’ve tried pulling the clutch in and also trying in neutral I’ve tried with kickstand up and down and just still nothing When I has the starter out earlier I crank it and it spun lickidy split

So I’ve got a 01 Yamaha 1100, and I changed my oil as well as pulled the left engine case off. As I needed to replace the gasket due to oil leaking and ever since I’ve put it back together the bike won’t turn over nor will it even start now …. I’ve checked fuses and nothing I’m at a loss right...

Well I noticed when running it the oil was dripping from the bolt which made me think it was leaking from somewhere there 🤔 plus the little lip on the case oil will pool there when it runs and I soak it up it looks again

So I picked up a 01 Yamaha vstar 1100, and there is a small oil leak. It was leaking from the valve cover so I replaced that and fired it up to make sure it wasn’t leaking and noticed it coming from this area the stud for the exhaust Anyone have any insight on this ??

Well I broke down and bought some portawalls lol, 95$ shipped for a set. I think they look awesome all thought the rear was a real PITA to get on, every time I went to fill air I had to let it out and do it again. The dang things kept being pushed out of the bead itself, I bet I did it at...

It’s a steel core that’s sandwiched between like regular gasket material

Yes I have a new gasket for it just incase, this gasket is a steel gasket so they tend to last awhile, I haven’t checked the cam chain tensioner yet so I gotta take the cover off for it anyway. All got gasket for the exhaust too just incase not to worried about it standing out as I tend to...

Makes sense, well maybe when I have the covers off when checking the cam chain tensioner I’ll clean it up and polish it about as best and as much as I can and let her ride Maybe paint it in the future but we see, not sure if I’d care for the cases to be black. But we see over time lol

No I had a few lines on some but gonna pass on em for now and just ride it out on the s40 with her since she won’t be on the bike very often

Ah I don’t wanna have to remove all the coating, I just thought maybe I’d get away with sanding and “feathering” the edges and blend it enough that I could polish it and make it shiny and clean looking Guess I could always just remove em and paint it black to match the motor lol

I just like a nice clean look, and take pride in my bike and how it looks. Plus I figured I wanna check the chain cam tensioner so thought I’d try cleaning it up when I have the cover off

Can’t load up the other pic of the other side says it too big

So I noticed I’ve got the coating coming off the engine case of the bike, I was wondering if I had the case off. Could I wet sand 600-800-1000-1500-2000, then polish with some chrome polish like mothers ? Will that make it look new again, or are there other ways you guys have done such ?
