As I understand it at Partial throttle 2 valves is more effective at lower rpm and at full throttle you only spend a second or two below vtec...
It is actually a VERY low mileage motor. I bought the bike used with 2.5k miles and it was like that when I bought it. No coolant consumption,...
It was the CCTs. I just spent 5 hours replacing them with manual ones and now the bike runs super smooth. I spent a good 3 hours trying to fish...
I got a motor but it has between 0 and 60psi compression on piston #4 and burns 1 quart of oil every 500 miles ;)
New manual tensioners are here. How much of an oily mess should I expect when removing the old CCTs?
Checked the headers, no loose bolts there. It is the CCTs for sure. Gonna order manual ones later tonight and be done with it.
Forgot to mention I can feel the sound in the grips. Really doubt it's header bolts.
Well as some may know I recently swapped the motor of my bike to a 2005 engine with around 11k miles on it. Today I noticed a ticking sound when...
Yeah mine never goes above 167 when it's cold and I ride daily even at 32 and under temps. I suspect the thermos is stuck open.
but how you gonna mount the hardcases :P
I wouldn't mind trying to use that gauge cluster on my 6th gen. Given how little has changed I would put money on it being a direct swap as far...
My clock resets all the time but it's due to having an EVO2 battery and it being winter. Every time I start the bike cold I got a reset clock and...
Better get some. VTECs aint complete without them IMO. I don't mean you have to ride all the time with them on but I think everyone should own some!
Did it come with hardcases? That's another 1k from the factory :O
I took him to mean if he pulled the clutch the engine wouldn't find idle and stall but if he dropped the clutch while it was stalled it would fire...
I have had the bike cut out on me like described as well but only when it is a cold engine, as in no temp reading at all yet, it has never...
I did ask him but I always get multiple sources before deciding.
Well the ole tax return was nicer than I expected so just going straight DMr but I had another question. How much can I safely raise the rear...
I know I should, you know I should, but I just want to avoid spending $400 on a rear shock. My old SV650 spoiled me, I swapped the rear shock...
Can I use a CBR600F4 rear shock? I see a lot of talk about the F4i rear shock but I can't find any suitably stiff springs so I want to use an F4...
