I did all the valve clearances that day without problems, put it all back together, and I still had noise coming out (and a bit of smoke). I...
Thanks kennybobby! I love this redneck squidbillie stethoscope! With it, it would seem like the noise is actually coming from #1 intake - which...
So I checked #2 and #4's valve clearances, hoping that might be it (since the sound seems to be coming from the front). Before my adjustments, 6...
I love your answer! Yeah... I figured (a) is the TDC... Good to know for F.. What might the II mark be? Also, I will check the cam lobes... I...
Thanks fredsncoma. The manual literally only says: 1. Line it up to the T1 mark. 2. Make sure # piston is at the TDC on the compression stroke...
Hello! Sorry for the MIA. I finally have time to work on the bike! I got the front cylinder head cover off per the manual. Now, I have a few...
Btw here is the manual I refer to. I know, it is for a VFR500F. But nowhere can I find one that is for VFR700F... It is the same year and...

Driving one day ~50mph and click, engine rev'ed itself up to 10kRPM, and ever since, I have this clicking/ticking/tapping noise. I've driven it...
SUCCESS!!! The radiator is patched (Thank you JB-weld) and I have no leaks, and she sounded great out there! One I'm-stupid-moment was shortly...
I'll check that once the radiator is fixed :) Thanks a ton!!! Updates to be continued...
IT IS A JOYOUS DAY! - I played with the lights a bit (literally played... just turning headlights to high beam and back, turn signals, brake,...
Yay! The starter is spinning - I get the starter sound (chi-chi-chi-chi), but engine does not start. And yes, as Kenny said, the headlight......
I have cleaned and checked the start button, engine kill, ignition wire bundle connectors. I could check the clutch side as well. The headlights...
- ohm between battery-negative and the frame is very close to 0KΩ and jumps to more than 10MΩ at times. This is the correct behavior, yes? -...
kennybobby, you got me - I was checking it against the anodized frame, hence, failing in making proper measurements. I did end up measuring from...
HORRAYYY!! Also, I am dumb. The new starter relay looked exactly like the old one... but not till today (3 days later, since I never had...
Sorry about jumping ahead/not doing things right... I am trying to learn as I go... Dumb question: is it right to read only 0.15VDC measuring...
Backup a bit. I didn't do the B+ test right, apparently. I probably didn't push the pin through all the way - I found the wires expose themselves...
Odd.. I'll do that tonight when I get home... The fuse was new, but its possible hooking up my car battery charger blew it? But I would doubt that...
