Unsolved 2009 Suzuki RMZ-450 keeps breaking kickstarter shafts. Help me figure out why.
My son bought a 2009 RMZ-450. He bought it with a broken kickstarter shaft. He and his friend bump-started it and rode around the block, but it would not rev up. A little digging and we found the bike ingested a timing chain guide.
When opened, it looked bad, like someone ran it dry of oil. This triggered us to rebuild the top end. New cylinder, piston, rings, polish the bearings, etc. Rod play checked, any spalling removed, valves lapped (I think; maybe) and shimmed, timing chain guides replaced, and we inspected and cleaned the oil strainers, oil passages, oil pump, and crankcase. (Pieces of the failed guide could have circulated through the lubrication system.).
We got everything reassembled and fired up the bike. After 8 kicks, it started, ran smoothly, idled well, etc. After half a dozen starts, the kickstarter kicked back and sheared off the kickstarter shaft. This put us back at square one.
I don't know the reason for the original breakage of the shaft, but this new shaft breaking concerns me. I can't figure out what might be causing this shaft to break.
Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this?

2023 Royal Enfield Himalayan 411
My Himalayan 411 (Euro 5, ~3,000 miles) has developed a persistent orange check engine light.
Bike starts, idles and rides completely normally, with no noticeable issues. Recently had an oil change and general inspection with no concerns found.
I’ve restarted it several times, but the light stays on.
Has anyone experienced this? How do I find the source of the problem / fix it?
Thanks
(Still learning about motorcycle maintenance so might look really silly but I just want to be sure)

After low speed crash (slid on left side into railing) I did repairs but forgot to check/refill oil. I rode after and lost power at ~85mph for a couple of seconds. After that these sounds began and oil was low. What does it sound like?
Update: found silver specks on oil filter when I changed the oil.

Hello all, clutch issues, help needed! Moto Guzzi 2019 v7 stone III
Hello all! This is my first bike so kinda confused. I have a motoguzzi 2019 v7 stone with 13k miles. Oil change is due.
Recently, it became really hard to change gears. Like I have to apply more pressure to change between gears sometimes, and it never goes to neutral. On first gear at a stop, when I have the clutch fullle engaged, the bike wants to roll forward and I have to press the brakes. If I don’t, the bike will inch forwards.
Yesterday, the engine completely stopped at a stop light when on first gear. It would turn off and I’d have to start it again. This happened 4-5 times.
Any help or recommendation on how to to proceed will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Is it normal for the RPMs to bounce a little bit on an idle?

2015 Honda CBR 600 double R
Not sure if I’m nitpicking, but I did notice that the RPMs tends to bounce a little bit while it’s idling I don’t know if it’s due to the spark plugs and coils being bad or if it’s just how to bike is supposed to be, is this normal?

Unsolved 1994 BMW K75RT Humming
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
My bike has developed a weird hum a couple weeks back, and I would appreciate some input. Some background:
- I heard this for the first time after riding for an hour on the interstate in a combination of stop and go and free flowing traffic;
- When I turned the bike off and coming back after letting it cool off, the sound was gone; and
- I went for a diagnostic ride today (~1 hour), and there was no noise until about 50 minutes in.
The video I attached was taken after I parked, but left the bike running. Note that it gets louder the closer I get to the dash. In person, you almost can’t hear the noise if you’re down by the radiator. I bring that up, because a friend suggested something was going on with bearings near my radiator. I wanted to see if the noise was coming from the tank, even though the sound doesn’t get louder when I put my ear to the tank. I had to turn the bike off to unlock the fuel door, but the noise was gone when I turned the bike back on. Thoughts? Thank you in advance!
