My experience with H4 LEDs is different. I've installed different ones in my FJR1300, ZRX1100, and my wife's SV650S, among others, all with...
Randy, after a bit of digging I did find the thread, but the info on the parts to use is out of date after some seven years or so.
I searched back a few years but no hits. I've tried changing the H4s to LED units but the focus is all wrong. I even rotated the lamps 180...
Ah, shades of the old GPZ1100 listserve. There, many thought red was swift but we Pearl Greenish Black bike owners knew better.
So at this point I've had my '00 nearly five months and have run up just over 6,000 miles on it. It's been an interesting transition. I'm getting...
I dunno. I've always had success with vacuum shutoffs over the last forty years or so. I rebuilt my 500's petcock with the Honda kit and it's...
Some good ideas here. I should start by pointing out that I install hotter horns on pretty much every bike that falls into my clutches and I do...
Well, actually I have a bit too much freeplay on those. Typically, the conventional wisdom is to tighten it up to reduce bucking. But haven't...
Not seeing anything great on a search... The horn on my VFR made my wife laugh out loud when we were riding and I check-beeped it. Has anyone done...
Heh, throttle snatch, thy name is Versys 650. My wife traded in a Ninja 650 for an '18 Versys 650LT. The idea was to gain a "touring" bike to go...
If by some chance you'd think of separating the Givi rack outfit, I would be interested. Have been looking for a new 5th-gen kit and they aren't...
Yeah, the idea of throttle snatch on this bike was a surprise. The chain is in adjustment. I am indeed kind of a chain fanatic- I got 58,000...
If I woke up tomorrow morning, went downstairs to the garage, and my US model '00 suddenly changed to Pearl Conifer Green, I think I would be...
The Power Commander thing is interesting to this old guy, too. That throttle snatch gets to me, and not just in traffic. I just spent the...
I've gotten my "garage find" '86 500 going very well now, and have been riding it with confidence it will get me back home- always a good thing...
Heh. Working on motorcycles is engaging, satisfying, gratifying, and occasionally successful. Yeah, but riding them is better still.
"Hope I don't end up hitch hiking home LOL." My solution was to do all the test ride in the company of the Missus. It paid off. The first time...
Just to add- with a bit more mileage done, I have not detected any pinging, knocking, or other distress using the local "regular" grade 87. There...
Kind of late to this thread, but- any chance it's fuel starvation from the fuel cap vent being clogged? I know it's a stretch, but parts of the...
Time for an update. Pleased to report some successes. I violated the diagnosing procedure rule of only doing one thing at a time an testing the...
