Hey all, I'm going crazy while my forks are at the shop getting resealed... I'm having to drive a CAR to work. The only good thing is I get to drink Starbuck's on the way. Anyway, I ordered a couple new toys. I have a K&N air filter coming soon, and also a K&N PC II so probably will have some new how-to's posted before long. I still haven't done the valve adjustment on the littl VF500 if anyone wants to stop by in cali and do it for me btw. :biggrin:
That is an adv to driving your vehicle to work. I've been putting off my valve job too. I know its going to be a pain. How does the little viffer run? Did you get the clutch problem fixed?
Just started a new job since the move to Washington, for one week before I was cleared to to receive my company car I rode the VFR and had a blast taking the back roads. The ride just isn't the same in a Pontiac Grand Prix. I was also thinking of upgrading my air filter, can't wait to see if you can feel the difference...
FYI...When you install your new k&n filter dont forget to take the rubber gasket out of the groove in the air box.Or your k&n wont fit.You dont need it for the k&n filter.Save it so if you deceide to put the stock one back in. Also if you ordered that pcII from dynojet get the to map it for the pipe and k&n filter you have on your bike.
It starts great and idles well. I still haven't done the valve adj so I still have the tap/tap. I am working 6 in a row 12hr days so I haven't done any work other than sticking a front brake lever on it... I wanted to ride it to work! But the clutch thing wouldn't let me although I think I could do it by shifting into neutral at lights and taking a back way... I just can't ride it with the tappping like that , though.
Yeah, I'm hoping having all 3 aftermarket items will make a difference. I plan on adding the pcII and the filter at the same time to be able to notice the change...
