Honestly, using that manometer would be a huge pain in the ass on this bike. I used the Motion Pro 4-cylinder version a couple of weeks ago....
PM Sent!!!
It should go to A. B is the vent. Have you taken off the petcock filter cap there at the bottom yet? That may have gunk in it as well.
Jamie, Well, the opportunities are dissolving as quickly as they appear. If I can't find any in a few days I'm going to take mine apart and...
Flat head screwdriver. They face outwards and you can reach them with the carbs installed.
No, but if they still have the caps on them you will need to drill them out and remove them to get to the screws. It would be about the same...
Bump for fork tubes. The guy in Baltimore never replied. Michael E, if shipping to zip 23322 is reasonable please PM me with a total cost.
While the carbs are out I'd hook up a temporary source of fuel (funnel maybe?) and find out exactly where the leak is coming from.
True! And these are keys to tuning a bike. Every bike is different. Bikes are at different temperatures, elevations, and mileage. Different...
To prevent gas spillage, you can turn off the petcock and then run the bike for a bit to burn off some of the gas in the line. If it's a vacuum...
A guy in Baltimore PM'd me. I'm thinking that might be the most viable at this point. If it doesn't work out I'll let you know. Thanks, Greg

Well, I really just need the fork tubes, but if you have the whole fork and don't want to break them down I can buy them assembled too. My fork...
Well, it's hard to judge pricing. Only one pair have sold on ebay lately and they were for a Magna and went for $10. How's $30 + shipping sound?...
Yeah, I checked ebay and wasn't happy with what I found. I'm going for used because it'll probably be cheaper and also a little quicker.
Quite alright. I'm really only interested in the condition of the fork tubes (chrome part). My lowers are good and I've painted them recently....
The VF500F already has a sort of fork brace built into the front fender.
Like....? Most of the guys in this thread seem to be from everywhere except HR.
Yes, please let me know. The bike is in a friend's garage right now torn apart and I feel a little bad about it.
Hey guys. Due to me finding two bent fork tubes this weekend I am in need of a good pair. Please email me with what you've got. Straight and...
