Beavis RC36-2 refresh (1995)

After some tests with my Coils / Leads , i realized that I can't get measurements , so I decided to buy and replace the wires. Even with that the problem persists. So I checked the covers and voila , it's green ...

After some contact cleaner and some long wire to scrap inside , it's back to business.

That's why I was getting weak spark and misfires.

 

Wheels arrived from Powder coating.

 

Fuckin purty!

Did they do a good job masking?

 

Unfortunately I need to back to start with the HT wires , after several attempts with silicone wires , they simply don't get to the end of the spark cover because they are too soft , even with some grease they just don't get to the end so I can get a solid connection. Already bought classic PVC 7mm wire to get this done.

 

Oh yes. It was the first thing I have noticed, they perfectly cover the hub and bearing hole.

 

Classic wire is what they like. I rebuilt a bunch with some bulk 7mm NGK I bought a long time ago. The compression fittings on the coil side sometimes like a slight smear of black silicone to ensure a good seal.

 

Nice wheels!

 

I'm very pleased . Thx

 

I'm still considering getting the ugly white wheels done properly. Cost for paint/powder seems about the same. Any input is welcome.

 

Today was the time to prevent the infamous Stator/ Rectifier problem.

 

If going PC route, make SURE those MFers understand what is crucial to be masked. An apology and shrugged shoulders, and even a discount, don't go far when you are trying to remove it in critical areas.

It's why I paint everything now.

 

Bought some CBR 600 mirrors but the bases don't match the stock holes. Well no problem , I will make them fit.

 

Result :

 

Nice! Future reference if it's ever needed... the 2000-01 VFR mirrors are that style and bolt right on. Have them on my 1995.

 

Yes , mine come with those , but they're too long for my taste. Entering my garage with my car inside it's a Herculean job lol.

 

Gotcha. As you were.

 

They fold in and out in a second...

 

I'm gonna be busy tomorrow.

 

Hi guys need some help.

Already Installed everything (
Fairing isn't ready yet) .

Put some funnel with gas , center stand , battery charged , no tank , vent tubes opened ( because I don't have the tank) , put the side stand opened , and tried to fire it , but something is wrong. When I hit the starter the engine don't crank , but it makes a loud noise like something stuck.

What I'm I missing here?

****EDIT :

It was the starter motor stuck. Give it some love hammer and it started to work again.
