I agree, Hopit, I think it's the little sheet metal cage that's off. Now that the paint is off the frame I am continually amazed by the poor build...
Strange new things have been uncovered of late. Today I was working on an adapter to fit a GSXR shock (which may or may not be a total...
As far as the starter goes, I've had it apart and together about 6 times now trying to figure out what the issue is, it doesn't seem to wand to...
On a scale of WTF would you do that? to WTF haven't you done that yet?, how would you guys rate emulators in VFkR forks? The damping system looks...
[img] This picture shows what is keeping my armature from coming out. There is ring that runs 3/4 of the way around the motor's circumference,...
It didn't want to come out, but I didn't want to pull very hard, either. There was a plate on one end, I thought it was crimped in place, but it...
Is that a reference to the lawnmower in the background? Hopit: How do you get the armature out of the motor body? Remove the magnets?
I dropped the frame and radiators off with the media blaster today, they should both be done tomorrow morning. I didn't have to work today so...
My forks came back from Jamie today. All the parts (bushes, seals, springs) that he replaced were sent back to me as evidence of work done. I'm...

So, I have this friend, Stan. Back in '93, Rick (a friend of Stan's) got him into bikes and sold him a VF1000R. Stan then ran hell out of this...
Thanks, Jamie. I've got emails out to both of them now. At this point I'd just like to have everything put back to stock, but would there be much...
I'm apt to agree, Jamie. Does anyone know of a shop that will repair my cam and regrind the lobe to the original spec? Megacycle was recommended...
Well, that looks like a "no".
