New member (again) From UK

Good morning good people
Just a little note to introduce myself, I've just turned the grand old age of 50 and just bought myself a new project bike to keep me busy for a year or two. It's a uk spec 1986 VF400F why I here many of you say, well it was local, in my price bracket and I think it look's bloody lovely. I have previousley owned a 5thgen VFR800 which was such a good bike. I hope to get some pictures up the weekend and get started on the bike, I am a qualified tech, but would apriciated any advise along this jouney too. I have been looking for a PDF manul for the bike, but cant seem to find a link that works, can anybody point me in the right deriction please? Regards to all, Alan.

 

Welcome ….sounds like you have a good plan for the 400 …..

 

Thank you Can't wait to get started.

 

This is the only manual I can find for the bike

Whereabouts are you?

 

Hi, thanks for the link, I'll keep looking on ther, but I can't seem to find it at he moment (as I said i've just turned 50 and not to good at these computery things!!)
I am in Lowestoft which in the Norfolk and Suffolk border, miles away for most forms of life and decent road links!

 

I see what you mean, the site is not working properly …..or it’s advertising what they don’t have

This is for a 500 but the correct years so the cycle parts should be similar

Hi Alan and Welcome to the MadHouse

The folks on here really like photos - so when you get time please post up a photo of you VF400F. ("Upload a File" link then follow prompts).

You may want to update your forum profile to include an approximate location town/city is ample but you may be lucky and find someone on the forum lives nearby and might be willing to swing by and offer advice or pick up a wrench - especially if you have a well stocked beer fridge.

If you need guidance there is a heap of reference material available in the document library over on the 400GreyBike site.

Hope that helps

But not the VF400.

Paper copies available on fleaBay at a price.

One manual covers English, French and German languages.

 

Thank you

 

Good morning and thank you

I will get every updated over the weekend, and yes the fridge is always well stocked

Can't wait to get started on it
