It's all good - oil is supposed to be behind there!
Just stick a piece of paper towel in the hole beyond where you drill. That's what my oil kit instructions state - everyone who have used this...
I feel like it's 1992 again with all of the subjection and assumptions! It's like Deja Vu all over again.
My suspicion is that the fluid had been leaking for some time and the level was below the seals. Once you filled them up there was ample fluid...
Hey Tink, I think that guy sent you in the wrong direction. Harshness is the biggest problem with the VFR800 forks and going with heavier fluid...
Yes, the remote preload adjusters have fluid inside. They are very difficult to refill and bleed though. If you have a good adjuster on another...
Yeah, I can help you out with whatever upgrades you are interested in. Something to keep in mind is that springs just support the load but the...
Yeah, I think you are finding out that the old VF's suspensions are just getting plain tired. It's a real shame too because they are still...
Congrats! What a great find!

Sweet deal, Congrats on a great find! I've always wanted a white 93. You don't see many of those anymore.
A guy on the V4HondaBBS captured the ignition advance, not me. He found there was a clean step at the stated rpm with no ramping up. I've wanted...
I'm not 100% sure abot that, but I think it's a step (or maybe steps) as well. I've seen data captured for the First Gens but not the second....
Just to clarify: the ignition systems on the early VF's have just those two advances - nothing else. They are literally a step at 3300rpm.
Wow, that is super sweet!
+1 Well put!
Same with the shock - air is bad.
I've had this happen before. Take a chisel or flat screwdriver and bend the bashing in to a 'C' shape. Then you should be able to pull it out. For...
They probably just feel like they are bottoming. What you are likely experiencing is hydraulic lock through the damping rods. This is a common...
