vfr800fi running badly

Hope you get sorted m8, i'm still waiting for my plugs to be delivered so been stuck for a week,as soon as they are in and pipes all checked i will update.

 

Yeah. I'm waiting for CSMNL to ship my parts. They have a lot of parts, but they usually ship about 10 days after you place the order. Which feels like forever...
I actually bought a complete throttle body at baboon.eu for only 50€. It only took three days from order till I got the throttle body.
Then I have more cheep spares, if the new hoses doesn't solve my problems.

 

I'm a complete mechanical dunce but just thought I'd add that when I replaced the rectifier I removed the block (followed advice from here) and haven't had any issues ever since. I've checked it a few times since (including volt test) and it has been perfect. Along with the new rectifier it took care of all my electrical gremlins.

Hope that helps

 

Hi, I just got rid of an srad that burnt the block out on rectifier and I removed block, at the moment I don't suspect it's electrical,leaning more towards this being a vacuum problem I reckon but could be wrong, I have it booked in the garage in just under 2 weeks so will get to bottom of it then,just want to ride it

 

Good luck and keep us updated

 

Had the bike to the mechanic this morning and he found the problem. The guy I bought it off decided to wrap the decibel killer in wadding before the MOT, turns out he blocked the exhaust.

 

Brilliant! Glad you got that sorted.

 

Well done getting it sorted!
