Excellent build and that is not his first one, judging by the work he did on this one. The VFR engine will likley work pretty good once you get...
So true. Trick can be finding a good one.
I hadn't heard that either until today when I happened to do a search on Google for the topic of overcharging and it directed me back a topic on...
I have done some other reading on R/R issues on this site and others and one thing that comes up with overcharging R/R is that it will eventuallyt...
Something really isn't adding up as you note that now both batteries are doing fine, one in & one out of the bike. So in other words you have no...
A drop of 3 volts in 3 hours is pretty astounding. It would have to be something major to cause that type of draw, ie: headlight,or tailight and...
Might be ghosts, but that doesn't explain it going dead after a short layup of 9 days. Go back to what you last did before you started having...
I'm sure there are other brands, but I've always found the NGK plugs to work just fine, and they are the right heat range for the bike as they are...
Looks like the standard 3 yellow wire plug, from the angle you show. The electrical gremlins with some of these bikes is kind of weird. Honda...
Why not just use the stock ones or Iridium ones from NGK for this bike. I'd give you the number but my bike is a 99 and not sure if they stayed...
Good to know as most of my experience is with the BMW & old gold wing world, both having screw adjusters. The exhausts in those tend to close...
With valves there will be some indications from the engine when it is time to check them. One is excessive noise and the other is hard starting...
This is a lesson for all. The master cylinders on these bikes is small and you cannot push, by using the lever alone, an air bubble from the...
12.84 sounds pretty good, can the bike shop load test the old battery. That will tell you if it is any good. Electrical issues are always a...
Sounds not too bad, but the 12.5 is an indication that all is not well. Now that you have a base line measurement, let the bike sit for 24 hrs...
I forgot to add, but the high numbers you are showing indicates to me that the R/R is continually trying to charge up the battery. I like to...
You've not say if you are running a stock wet battery, or an AGM battery and I can't recall you saying anything about its age. The numbers you are...
First off any tests on charging output have to be done with a fully charged up battery in good condition, ie: after 24 hrs have a resting voltage...
Yes the tire dates are important. The general rule on motorcycle tires is that 5 yrs from date of manufacture is the maximum, then they should be...
Never is one of those words, that doesn't really work. Having been a Motorcycle Instructor for a few years, a good crash is one you walk away...
