It was a Honda scooter you could trust completely,
\nbut with this Forza, our confidence has crashed hard.
\nThose legendary trouble-free Freeway and Foresight days are ancient history\u2026
\nWe finally got the ignition fixed the other day, but\u2026
\nWhen Yuzu took it as a loaner and headed out, it died on the way\u2014soaking wet by evening.
\nWe figured it was the regulator, so we swapped in the spare\u2026
\n12.5 volts\u2026 hmm\u2026
\nMeasured the three-phase AC from the generator\u2014one phase is completely dead.
\nSo
 
\n
 
removed it and drained the oil,
 
\n
 
stator assembly: 22,500 yen
\nOddly, the resistance values are the same on both old and new\u2014bad sign, but
 
\n
 
boom\u201414 volts! Regulating around 14.4 volts, so all good
 
\n
 
filled it with coolant
 
\n
 
air filter replacement: 2,650 yen
 
\n
 
drive belt replacement: 7,900 yen
\nBelts really do harden over time\u2026
\nIt’s not so much worn as it is the old one has lost its flexibility.
 
\n
 
harsh thermal environment
 
\n
 
operation check!
 
\n
 
replaced the fluid and we’re done\u2026
\nSee you next weekend!
\nThe oil is NC50.
\nMan, scooters wear me out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
