Had my seat off, looked at the tank, saw a lot of gashes there. Turns out my seat has been recovered, and the person doing it used an "adequate"...
Nope, haven't checked the odometer yet. Something to do. Could be the gearing is non-standard. However, I compared my odometer reading with what...
I just filled the tank a 4th time after buying this bike, a somewhat tired and neglected '87 VFR700. Riding from Salt Lake City to NW Wyoming...
Thanks for this info! I have a key that barely works, wanted to get a new key cut. Now I know how to get it done!
Well, I think the California model is good enough as is. California however, is a joke. :wink: It's pretty amusing the state government is...
No. Frying wires are standard on this bike. :smile: I'm guessing the wires are only fried next to the connector, which heats up and melts...
Well, I don't think any fullflow filter can come close to what a bypass can do. The latter simply takes all particles out that can hurt your...
I bought mine online at that site. Maybe I'll have to try racing that toilet bowl cleaner against Rusteco some day. :smile: Yes, after...
I got a Cali bike too, in Utah! I'm to old to worry about "not enough power", but don't care for all the extraneous garbage hanging off the...
RUSTECO R-200-3 FACTSHEET It works as advertized, cleaning out all rust while leaving your paint alone. It can be reused a number of times....
Yeah that's what I thought, vacuum operated. Isn't there some diaphragm somewhere, maybe in the petcock, that has to be intact? Also, don't...
I wonder if the later generations have the same dimension forks (in the appropriate area), such that a brace made for us would work on their bikes...
I don't know if this bike has adjustments in clutch spring tension. I had an old bike that had a problem with a dragging clutch, due to the...
Actually, the cables look quite good. Maybe been replaced already. Well, I just threw some motor oil in there temporarily. Guess I'll find out...
Is this going anywhere? I'd take one, for a reasonable price.
I have a sticky throttle cable on my '87 VFR700. I took things apart and found what appeared to be dry graphite under the twist grip, and maybe...
Now that I think about this some more, it may be completely true. The power output of the stator probably depends only on rpm, so the current...
Well, it turned out to be no big deal to heat it up and straighten it with a big hammer on an anvil. However the pivot is still messed up, can't...
I was thinking there might be enough room inside the fairing for a bypass filter on this bike. I notice there is a 2-section oil pump. Does the...
I wave if somebody waves at me, but personally, I think the waving is a little silly. It can get tedious with a lot of riders on the road. I live...
