40 psi sounds really low and yet the front two sound pretty high. When I did mine I got them all in the 160-135 psi range. Warming the engine made...
Can't disagree with much of the prior sentiments but the VF is a jewel of a bike compared to the GS500/EX500 types It's a four compared to a twin...
Not in Europe. At least not unless they are some special corroding type of stainless steel. I have four rusty down pipes to prove it. Julian...
Yes, they were sold in Europe. It's all the UK got, with the half faired never making an appearance. I 've always wondered why Honda went to the...
Stainless steel downpipes. I don't think so....
