Here's a link to the tool I was talking about ^^^ GA317, Remover/Installer, Metric Valve Keeper
Just sand or grind or whatever to get the old valve out, without damaging the guide. Are the rplacement valves NEW, or just new to you, used?...
WOW! Not much else to say! That thing looks NICE! Clean some dust off it and it would look awesome!
I'll play the devil's advocate this time... ala squirrelman. There are enough weak links with this engin that it's going to be very expensive...
Interesting. It's about 102mm which is 4 inches, on center. I would've expected a nice "round" metric dimension, but the inch dimension...
I'll try to remember tomorrow.
Oh, I just noticed you were talking about a VF1000R. That makes a difference!
Wow, I've had no problem with either! Plugs are a 20 minute job! For the carb boots, I use Zep 45. Very slick stuff, with teflon in it.
I hope so! At least enough that people will start giving away their 500's to me for parts! Who's first?
I have to agree with this, unless you're like me and just like to do stuff that defies logic! Actually, I'm going to put mine back together...
They're 85 heads, the valves aren't in the greatest shape, in fact, I'm probably taking the best 8 out of both sets to run on my bike for a while....

Yup! I bought mine in similar condition. I would love to be able to just tear it all the way down and clean and repaint everything, but I need...
Let me know if you decide to let it go! I have no problem driving down to Lancaster to pick up an Interceptor 500! I did just that less than a...
If I had some extra $ around, and 2 more would be all it took to get them rolling on it, I'm sure they woudl sell! Look at how well they sell on...
That Jamie guy is one smart fella! I do have to say that I'm interested in a full exhaust system more for the sound than looks, or HP gains....
Valves and springs ASAP!!!! Oh, and reasonable pricing as well! :D I'd be very interested in a nice 4-2 system. Ofg course, without a price...
Something liek this would work: Motion Pro FCR Carb Tool - BikeBandit.com Now that I think about it, I think I used a 1/4" socket with a...
That is SO true about the tool trucks! Seeing that I repair cars for a living, I get WAY too many tools from them. I didn't care for it. I...
Some of us are a glutton for punishment! (Myself!!!!) They're too far away for me to have any real interest.
