Get a red scotch brite pad and take the gloss off of all the paint, lots easier than sanding. Some spray paint is designed for no primer like VHT...
If that RZ was the correct color, Yamaha yellow and black Kenny Roberts signature edition like mine was, this pic could have been taken in...
So what other model Honda or otherwise use the same front sprocket as the VF500? I suppose 428 would be too small.
I've found very little on this thru searching, just wondering who has done it and what parts you used. Rear sprocket is the same as a CBR600F1...
Maybe a Saudi Sheik. The lines on this one are good. [IMG]
Bobbers and RatBikes are cool if done right. Many miss the mark.
Never wash off your fingers with a pressure washer. Always have water connected to the pressure washer when it is running.
Always keep the nozzle moving and avoid areas like wheel bearings or seals, the chain, etc.
Older than I. Older than "I" there sport. Now sit up straight.
Wow, now I feel really old. You've seriously never heard of Kerker? The kidz these days I swear.:wink: Great find, looks great.
That sux. Must be the result of high rpm flogging or wheelies. Shoulda locked up the rear wheel and hopefully he fell on his face. We had a ZX9...
I just ordered a MotioPro throttle tube for an R1 but it also fits R6 and quite a few other Yamaha's, mostly dirtbikes. Are any of these tubes...
So an R1 throttle tube would be more like a 1/5 turn? Any idea what years? They went to throttle by wire around 2007ish, don't know if that...
Great info, thanks! Would you say that the R6 throttle is too quick or just the quickest of any you know of? I may have to look into one of...
What rate spring is on your F4i shock?
Has anyone done this to a VF500? It basically gives you full throttle in ~1/5 turn of the grip instead of the typical ~1/4 turn. Not every bike...
You are a bad bad person and undeserving of such a fine motorcycle, the authorities are on their way. On the other hand I find it interesting...
If that doesn't have the remote reservoir on a hose at the correct angle it will be difficult to mount.
True but finding a nice used high end race shock to modify won't cost too much more than modifying an OE part, F2/F3/F4i/VTR etc., and it will be...
That's the thread! How long is the VTR1000 shock?
