There is a manual for 5th gen listed at VFRD, don't remember the details, but search for it....
Owww! So it sounds like you had a regulator failure in which the voltage went way high. At first the battery tried to hold the excess charge until...
Only one thing to add. If you can, solder the stator connections after crimping them like the videos show. A connection that is only crimped may...
Ah, that's a "fix" I've never seen before. You can get a new R/R without the additional red and black wires and it will work. For a while. A more...
Your bike has had some rewiring done, so we are sort of guessing from what you describe what your wiring actually looks like. In other words, we...
Your R/R has evidently been rewired. The plug from the regulator to the battery has been eliminated. Most regulators have a 4-pin or 6-pin plug...
MOSFET is not a brand, it is a type of transistor which is used in the regulator. These are NOT original equipment type R/Rs, they are made by...
My observations about the V four charging system (I'm a retired electronics engineer) for whatever they're worth. The basic issue comes down to...
VFRnewbie, you've done the tests needed. Your R/R is internally shorted, the rectifier diodes are OK, but the regulator part is shorted on one...
The best place to record will depend what you want to capture. Exhaust is best captured by strapping the recorder to the passenger seat. A mic in...
I replaced the batteries at the same time as the R/Rs on my bikes, because the OEM R/Rs failed and ruined the batteries. In the case of the VF750...
So far, these R/Rs are working fine on both of my Hondas. Are you sure your battery is OK? I know, it's a 2 year old Yuasa. Personal experience...
Howdy from Pflugerville. The VFR is great for early morning hill country rides. You'll enjoy it.
I moved the new MOSFET R/R down onto the passenger peg bracket on my 5th gen.
Your naked bike looks cool for summertime riding. The CB600 radiator looks like a general purpose part that would fit a lot of bikes.
[ATTACH][ATTACH]Wolf exhaust was on the bike when I bought it. Initially there were problems. The metal pan which replaces the plastic rear fender...
Propped tank up and bungied bottom of airbox to it rather than remove them completely.
Thermostat housing accessible under the fuel system.
Throttle bodies held to the left by a bungie cord. No need to disconnect fuel lines & cables.
Separate names with a comma.
