Haven’t been overly thrilled with their service department, but we are all busy and down time sucks this time of year. It depends on what your problem is on whether I would say go or not go.

Thanks. I bought a used bandit 65 and the engine just died today...like it ran out of gas...but no electrical, no starter, no lights...maybe just a fuse or a connection? I guess I take it to them and see what they find.
 
Chippers can be deceiving to diagnose when the engine shuts down because of all the momentum the disk/drum carries. It drags the dying process out and makes things sound different then they actually are. I does however sound like an electrical issue. Check the battery, ignition and starter. Also if it has one the Murphy switch. We are working in Haverford today if you are around there, PM me and swing by we can look at it for ya if you want. No promises though. Hope you have a good day!
 
I just replaced my Ignition switch not long ago after it just stopped working during the middle of a job. It really can be that simple. Or not of course, but as Mert mentioned Modern Equipment is the dealer around here. Where exactly are you? Earthborne Equipment is in Warrington (215) 443-0770 and they work on all brands.
 
Thanks for the info... I woke up at 2am with the solution... the deadman switch above the disk vibrated loose... I should have diagnosed it right away... too much going on at the time I guess.
Thanks for the service suggestions.
