Hi everyone.
Im new to this so I extremely apologize if I have posted this in the wrong area.
I have a 2006 Vento Triton R4, and its been down for about a month.
Everything was fine until one night, the bike jerked, I heard a clanking noise, and it stopped on me. I was in the middle of a light with a jeep on my ass. It scared me, but I was able to coast the bike into a gas station. Well I took it to the dealership, where they had it for a lil over 2 weeks. The decided to tell me it was my fault after all that time, and that it was no longer covered under warranty. I asked them for an estimate on charges and they said $350. I was a bit shocked when he first told me that. But he said just by looking at it, it would cost $1000 to fix. Needless to say, I about fell out of my office chair.
He had told me that the fan cover was busted, and whatever hit the cover, and broke it, screwed up the fan and knocked the blades off of it. Which caused the bike to over heat. He said he tried to crank it, and it would try to start up, but it would make loud popping noises and not even turn over. So now, we have the bike back here, and we just need to know whats going on with it. This is my way around town. My only way. We decided we were going to work on it ourselves, but our dealer has been trying to contact vento for over a week for a service manual, and no one has contacted them back. Ive also tried contacting vento myself.
So does anyone know where I can get a service manual online. Maybe in a PDF format. Or does anyone have an idea what could be wrong with my bike.
PLEASE I NEED HELP!!
:angry:
..pray..
