Okay, so first. I'm horrible with anything mechanical.
I recently found a 2007 Burgman 400 with 29k miles on it for 1600. Took it for a spin, seemed normal. Around the block ( it was raining so didn't open it up properly).
On the way home, I noticed it was accelerating slow. Like super slow. Once I got it home I took a look again this morning noticed the FI light was on. And it wouldn't go past 4k rpm.
Everything I've looked at says it's the SVTA, either the motor stuck or the valves themselves.
Assuming I use a shop to repair it, I'm expecting about 800 for part and install.
Is this still a decent deal?
Also does anyone know if the throttle body on the 07 is the same as previous years. I can get a used on ebay that might save me money in the long run.
