VN 750s have fairly common issues with stators and rectifiers going sour, sometimes requiring "pull the engine" type fairly expensive repairs. Also has known issues with drive shaft splines not being properly lubed by the factory (wearing out as early as 10,000 miles) and some early cam chain tensioner issues as well.
Other than that, the bike was fine. Gives you things to check out thought, whenever you go bike shopping .....
Lookie at what is mounted to the luggage rack on my old Savage ......I had a subsequent thought on the transfer of gas from tank to tank when parked on a hill.
If I just remember to cut off the main tank petcock -- it
ALL stops moving, no transfer either to or from main tank is possible at all. Unless I have a leak of some sort or another,
nothing goes anywhere when the normal petcock is cut off.
Still thinking I need to have a small tank cut off anyway, though.
