And neither of you guys have problems with the speed rating (H-rated tires are good to 130MPH)? I always though you needed to buy tires that were...
Don't know if it's been addressed in this particular forum (I've seen it it in the 5th-6th Gen), but I'm curious to know what type of tires other...
Got the rear brake fixed. Had to remove the axle to be able to get the brake into it's proper place. Found another issue while doing this....
Thanks everyone. Guess I'm not the only idiot around. I'm loving the bike. Can't believe that I never thought of getting one sooner. One benefit...
Never got a chance to post an update this morning. It was what I thought, the bike wasn't in neutral. As soon as I put it in neutral, the bike...
I paid less than $600 for it. Glad someone else thinks I'm not an idiot. Now if I could just get my kids to believe that as well...

Finally have an update. Finally found a replacement tank from slickdizzy here on the forum. Also found out that gear shift assembly was all messed...
Also on your original question about the differences, I've found that a lot of people on eBay list Interceptor parts as a VF500. So if you search...
Gee, I wonder who got the tank and shift rod assembly? Oh, wait that was me!
Do my eyes betray me? Is that the F2 body fairing that I see? Man, wished I lived near there! I'd grab that in a heartbeat.
good luck with that.
DOH! Not what I wanted to hear.
Can an 85 VF500F petcock be used on an 86 VF500F tank? I potentially have a tank lined up, but it doesn't have the petcock.
Guess I should have clarified a bit more. I know how to start the bike, what I was wanting to know is if there is a recommended warm up time (2...
Lacking the owners manual for my 85 VF500F, I would like to know what the recommended warm up procedure is.
