I spent time in Quito during the 1990s, always enjoyed my visits there. We always stayed at the Oro Verde hotel up on the western hillside of the...
I see, just the exhaust canister then. That black-painted header/collector is OEM Honda. Oh well, I was excited for a moment, the Two Brothers...
Look at you, hoarding all the NC35s for yourself... (you should be ashamed)
It's easy to tell: The Two Brother's header/collector will be shiny stainless steel colored, the original OEM Honda header/collector will be...
So you're saying you've got a full Two Brother's system on the bike? Meaning: you have the Two Brother's Header/Collector and the exhaust...
Nice bike, looks like a well-preserved example of the "best-Gen". What type of pipe is that on the bike? Kinda resembles the Yoshimura I have on...
No... no, no, no, no. Everyone has to like the 180 crank. It's half of a Ferrari flat-plane V8. It rumbles at idle, it lopes on off-throttle...
Here's something (wheel related) that's easy to get wrong but also easy to correct: Every back yard/suburban-garage motorcycle "mechanic" is...
What do the rubber O-rings from inside your calipers feel like? (the "piston seal" and "dust seal" O-rings that the caliper pistons slide inside...
Maybe find a complete, used throttle body assembly (ebay?) and use it as a parts-donor?
My afternoon 45 minute round-trip ride (from the Greenwood Village) when I really need a quick fix is Hess Road. It's a rural 5 miles of nice...
Your post reminds me of one of my bikes, it's an older (2005 year model) Kawasaki EX250. The EX250 has a known tendency to have loose engine...
pretty certain that Honda would have tested the engine extensively to determine the RPM at which the awesome VFR800VTEC V4 engine would "run out...
If your bike's thermostat is failing, as in: the thermostat is seized up or binding and not moving to the "open" position as the coolant heats up,...
That's what I'd describe as a "you only live once" engine. I've never (yet) had an engine (car or motorcycle) rebuilt by the widely recognized...
damn.
Yes, I'm going to do the download-and-save to hard drive soon (gotta find the time to devote to the effort).
Wow! I just installed the fix you described and it works like a charm... at least for now. Unfortunately I don't know how long my Photobucket...
POSTED MARCH 7, 2020 Sorry about the state of this thread, with all of the pictures missing from it. Unfortunately I built this forum...
Good catch, that. Not an easy thing to figure out, the fact that while your battery might be in tip-top condition, it could be true that due to...
