Yeah, My guess is that I'll get it all together with new parts and it will be fine. Alignment is the only real question at that point. I'll need...
Picked up a rearstand today and got it up where I can poke at it some. And then I ran out of light, and can't find my service manual, so I wasn't...
BB, I've used 000 and 0000 to put a satin finish on polyurethane. It's fine enough that it gives a smooth, satiny finish without leaving visible...
I think my process on these is going to be: 1) using detergent and a brush (toothbrush) to get the grime out of the scratches, as best I can. 2)...
@NorCal, that's a good point. I need to pick up a rear-stand (mine went away when I moved out of the country and I put the bike into storage, and...
12K miles? I dunno. It's been on there a while. I'm definitely going to bump up new sprockets and chains on the maintenance priority as a...
What parts _are_ left in that box?
I have the Zaino dual-action compound, but this is going to take a lot more than that to get through. If I were to start sanding, I'd be starting...
Offset issue, or rear wheel angle? (one I can fix easily, the other is going to require a new set of sprockets).
Does this look like an adjustment issue, or due to replacement sprockets not perfectly lining up correctly? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
The 2nd gen VFR has plastic side fairings that gets very close to the pegs. When riding, I "lock in" with my ankles as well as my knees....
Do you have any of the fairing hardware (bolts between front lowers and front fairing, and the spacers/rods that hold the lowers to the frame by...
I've found that a conventional automotive jack will fit between the headers, and with a block to protect the surface, you can jack from there....
I'm doing some work on SuperTrapps soon (repacking), and I've decided to replace the clamps while I have the 2-1 collectors off the headers. The...
I've since gotten confirmation (from videos of repacking, that mine are definitely in need of it (packing isn't supposed to be fused together the...
I've got a pretty standard supertrapp. 8 baffles on the end, a solid end-cap, and about 10-12" of perforated core surrounded by packing material....
I've had a love/hate relationship with the supertrapps on my '86 since day 1. I love the way they sound up high when the engine is under load. I...
That's basically where I'm headed with this.
After some poking, I've realized that my supertrapps only have about 9-10" of core in them, and then it switches over to the exit baffles. Which...
Does anyone on here know how different (quieter/deeper) 17" cans of the same design would be vs. 10" cans? (same diameter, packing, etc.). I'm...
Separate names with a comma.
