A trip to the AutoZone resulted in nada as they said their machine 'doesn't do motorcycles'.
A trip to the gas station ended up getting me riled because the attendant refused to allow me to add air to my own rear tire, ended up dropping my psi lower than when i started, and finally got a tiny bit of air in and said that was all the tire would take (23 psi when it is supposed to be at 33). Urg.
Went from there to the local stealership as the only place in town that can check MC battery load. And, are you all ready for this ~ Put your helmets on!
I told them why I wanted the battery checked, so the head mechanic came out ot the parking lot, sat on my bike and tried to start it more than a DOZEN times.....without engaging the clutch.
I am at the SUZUKI motorcycle dealership service dept with my SUZUKI bike....and they don't know how to start it. I stood there and watched him silently, getting madder by the second.
So he finally figures out that little trick (duh) and says after starting and stopping my bike multiple times, that he thinks the starter button has something in it and it needs replaced. I said fine, I'll take it apart and clean it myself, get off my bike you moron, see ya bye.
They did put air in my tire for free....gee thanks, glad I didn't push the knowledge envelope there.
(I checked after them with my digital tire guage and they did actually get the pressure correct).
So, as stated earlier, I'll take the starter button apart this weekend and see if it does the trick.
