I agree with Squirrel. Here's the thing...you can add all the gizmo's and magical mystery fluids you want and if something's wrong with the...
Yes...you should be isolating, or unplugging the stator when testing. Also you are testing ACV? And a series of three tests? Usually if the...
The large electrical load of your starter can make things show up that unloaded circuitry won't. Check ALL the big cable connections for...
And to think we're only talking Viffers here. Honda uses so many different kinds of trim clips as to be ridiculous. Seems like they design a new...
Lots of air coming out that breather isn't a good sign. Do a compression check before you go any further.
Could also be just a really weak battery. The extra wires in the front of the bike (orange/white and blue/white) are for the STOCK turnsignals....
I've been using similar type elements out of late 90's Ski-Doo snowmobile on my ST for years now. My only complaint is the right side gets warmer...
If you're gonna bother to do it, why not just do it right? If that thing is an old SOHC 650 (which I bet it is 'cause they're known 'gushers'),...
Sounds like a bad flasher. find the 'thing' with a white/green, grey, and (likely) a solid green wire going to it and replace it with a known...
I really dislike when additional lift holes are required. I've had luck 'undoing' a couple of such modifications in the past by filling the holes...
Carbs are an amazingly intricate device. Very few people actually understand them. Small changes can make big differences. One main jet size...
I see your point Squirrelman. No mods are made to the enrichener circuit, and raw fuel in the CC is usually caused by float valve leaking....
Plug fouling...needs air to start (throttle open)...yes it does seem rich. 'Properly installed' are the key words, Squirrelman. Float...
Your bike shouldn't die from riding in city traffic. If it does, something's wrong. Your charging system should 'break even' at idle, or just...
Yeah...more detail is needed. Do you have to hold the throttle open a bit to start it? Does it have a jet kit installed?
Battery ignition Honda's like this one with carbs WILL die if the battery becomes discharged enough. The battery powers the ignition, the...
Hmmm...your caliiper is upside down from traditional. It sits directly below the pads. There's usually a tab or a detent in the caliper body...
I disagree. I always check float level anytime carbs are apart on V4's, if you replace parts it's more important yet. Because of the angle of...
If my US model 07 VFR800 has a passing switch I haven't found it yet. It's typical for Honda to use slightly different lighting systems in...
I can't see where you can blame your oil change for this. U Sure it ran fine before the change? Just get your bike outta storage? First...
