Hi all!
Checking out a high mileage 2017 ES tomorrow, and would love some advice. Price is right (almost suspiciously low but at a reputable dealer), bike looks in amazing shape, and has 61k on the clock. Valves were inspected at 30k, CCT was not replaced. I plan on a cold start to check for tensioner rattle.
I might be able to get the service records, which would obviously be of interest.
What else to look for?
How much is valve service with cct replacement?
I’m a bigger guy, 5’10” 265# - any thoughts or concerns of high mileage suspension issues?
Is the brake switch recall applicable, or easily enough replaced by the mechanically inclined?
Thanks in advance!
Edit to add: I’m in southern New England
