R/R failure, again

So I only got about 3k out of this one. I had the original fail at 14K and replaced it with the updated Honda finned unit. Enough of Honda R/R's my mechanic has a Rick's unit on order. Luckly having had this failure before I saw what was happening and was near my mechanics shop so I pulled it in there. When we went to start it to check voltage it wouldn't even turn over. So at least I got it there since clearly I wasn't going to make it home.

Honda ones suck bawls.

Only Circuit_Burner sells ones with a lifetime warranty: www.motovoltage.com

(Dude, you need to put a link in your signature that says something like "Lifetime warranty R/R" that links to your website.)

VTRumble is an unknown quantity at this point
I bought one from Rick's afew years ago, no problems. They do come with a 1 year warranty as long as it's bought direct from them.
