Just bought what was once a beautiful show bike that had been neglected and abused. Cosmetics are beautiful, but it has a 0few minor (I hope) issues. Low beam is REALLY low. Put a meter on the socket and tried another bulb I had laying around. Same result. What number bulb is required? Or is it an electrical problem? While I'm here, After warming up a bit, sounds like marbles are rolling around in the tranny. Put a stethoscope on the clutch cover and it was coming from more so there than else where. Finally, I've been told of a 2nd gear problem common toi 1100's... mine sometimes seems to down shift, to 1st, but comes right back. was that the problem. My 5th Yamaha. An old 180, 3 Visions, and now the 11000. Yamahas rule! Any or all answers? Please post and also please send to renthalf@yahoo. com. Thanks in advance for your help. Allen P.S. It's a trike, origonated in FL. now in PA. "El Jefe"
