I just would like to meet him and get his autograph. I still tell my wife about the cool items that "The Guy from Up North" has done with his 1000's and basket.Let's all meet at @CumminsPusher house, hope he has a big water heater and good septic system! HA!
My throttle gets a little crusty. I just spray it down with some silicone spray.
Had it freeze up last year. Went to Walmart and ask for a syringe. Man I got the look! I explained I was injecting iso heat in my throttle cable on my ATV. It works. But I've never been so scared to stab myself!Why would you do preventative maintenance like that?!? Ha! I don't blame you for keep it clean and lubricated.
I just purchased a 2018 1000-5 LE on Saturday but I haven't taken possession of it yet. Filled out all the paper work and the only thing pending was to see if my bank was going to roll the accessories into the loan or not. I'm hoping since the paper work was already done before the stop sale that I won't have to wait. Oh and hi, I'm new around here! I've been wanting one of these machines for the past 3 or 4 years and i finally got one!

Just dropped this morning.
Throttle pedal pivot could get corroded and stick causing a stuck throttle issue. Service Bulletin to be released around March 25th.
That's sort of a gray area. If the unit had been funded by Honda Finance already then it would be considered sold and you be in the clear.
Not sure how outside finance goes, I believe since the dealer hadn't registered the sale with Honda tho might not be able to take possession of it.
You may have them call Techline or their district service manager and see what they can do about it.

Just do what some dealers in Florida do: swap out the dashboard and zero miles! That's a true story Kay!Were going to sell it privately. I was a little worried about having trouble selling it with about 5000 miles on it, but we have a bunch of people that say they are interested. They all say, it's a honda so miles won't matter. We'll see.
And the yellow I think is leaving. I ordered the silver panels like Jackal posted on his 1000-5 build. My wife sent a picture of the yellow to her dad, that just picked one up a few months ago and he said he really like the yellow, so we might have got rid of those too. I said I could learn to like the yellow, but the wife said she couldn't.
I have over 1,200 miles on one and 380 on the other and no problem. They both ride in deeper water most of the time.I wouldn't worry about it honestly, I've never seen or heard of 1 sticking.
Just keep it lubricated if your iffy about the situation. My GM has over 2K miles on his and it's never stuck. Another good customer has over 3600 miles and it's never messed up either. Both of then driven in whatever terrain very often.
