The problem I'm finding with the decal sets is that if you buy a set from an independent place they either give you red or blue, no black. I'm not...
I wonder if I can take a pic of the FSM's diagram for you... I'll get on that when I get where my book is.
Here's the deal, y'all, I'm trying to get as many reference pictures as I can of the OEM paint job and decals for the red '84 VF500F to send with...
+1, I'm gravity-fed on my '84, although I still have my vacuum system intact. Fuel pump was more pain than it was worth. Here's Jamie's site's...
+1 for the cheap, easy and revertable fixes. Sometimes the cheap and dirty fixes last longer than you'd like, too. :-D That suuuuucks about...
wait wait, that wouldn't be the pushrod per se, that could also be the gearshift linkage. Do you have a Factory Service (or even Clymer) manual?...
That does sound like the oil seal for the pushrod. I haven't had to replace mine (yet), but check some parts fiches at cheacycleparts or...
what you've got going on sounds like what I HAD going on last week and before. It seems like it's fine, but sometimes dies for no good reason, or...

A rebel flag AND a pink bow? Isn't that redundant?
Oh, and as for the sticky throttle cable: if it hasn't been lubed recently, do so. Otherwise, make sure that it's not getting smooshed by the air...

Also, for future reference, here's what I did for my missing clamp situation before I got replacement carbs (long story short, the carbs on the...
Oh god, look at that beautiful paint! *droooooooool* ...but if he doesn't turn that fuel valve off RIGHT NOW I'm going to slap him.
Someone on another board pointed me toward this: Moto Retro The #4 issue (the most recent) has a feature for the 80's Interceptors. If you...
I'm not sure if I'm absolutely down with this idea or not, it depends on what I can do with what I have, but I figured I'd put out some feelers...
That almost sounds like the clearances are off on the valves. I'd check valve clearance first.
You know, if I was in your shoes.... I'd go ahead and swap that starter clutch and then check the wear and tolerances of the one that's giving you...
I like the idea of a custom plate, but ultimately I'm perfectly happy with a regular one. This BNANA one is less of a statement than it is a Cone...
Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. :-)
