| First topic message reminder :
FWIW, you may be happy you own a Silverwing. If you look at the posts on BUSA over the last nine months, you'll see quite a few on how the CVT has failed. It is a guess only, but I'm seeing about one failure every two weeks. The approximate cost if you take it to the dealer to work on it, is about $3K.
So a Silverwing may be an "upgrade" after all...
It seems generally that the failures occur after 20,000 miles. Some owners will never reach that, but more and more people have.

Could be but the Silverwing will still be ready and waiting. Having two competing machines is fun. I can brag about the Burgman here or the Silverwing at BurgmanUSA or I can pan the Burgman there and the and the Silverwing here. To finish the whole Megillah I could put CTs on one of them and deride the other because there are MTs on it. The possibilities are endless. |
