Looking good.
Yeah, I have too many parts kicking around for my own good. I know the 4" is a "dirty" measurement, it's more like 3.75" or 93mm from a...
Sorry, didn't think to mention that I had both. I have a 750 and 800 arm as well. IIRC, you said wheel CL to chain outside on the stock 500 was...
Is the chain on the front sprocket in the above photo? If so... Note below. The rear sprocket carrier mounting surface is inline with the left...
I pulled out my VFR400 wheel and Hawk arm and have some numbers for you to chew on while you're waiting on parts. Hope it helps. [ATTACH]...
Aw man, you mean this is a no-no? [ATTACH] I kid of course:wink:
Now that's my kind of package. I'd be thrilled to open that and I don't even have a 750! Can't wait to see them on.
Congratulation BR. Looks like another one found a good home. Ask Billy C here. He would know what the deal is on the fuel tubes. The man when it...
Boy that's going to look nice in the frame.
Looks great Pops!! Keep it up.
I have a MOTOBATT in my R. It was under $80 IIRC. My R had a YB16 in it and was a BIG battery. I put in a YB12 replacement from MOTOBATT and it...
Welcome. The '84 RE will suffer from the same poor parts availability as any of the other years. Luckily, the differences between them are minor...
Actually not surprised the stock R is only slightly wider than the 500. 3.5" is a really narrow wheel. Sounds about right, mine is at 125mm or...
VF500 stock distance from wheel center to outside of chain(the important number) was reported to me to be around 90mm+/-. Mine is around 125mm....
Forgive me but I'm at a loss with this statement. How can looking at a bike with a larger frame and motor and doing THE EXACT SAME THING help in...
Um...that's quite a leap in logic there. The R's swingarm is split in front and use's a 2 pivot bolt set up similar to the 500's so there's no...
Looks helpful.
I know this is an apples to oranges kind of thing but it might illustrate the chain issue. This guy wanted to mount a 5.5 CBR rim on his VF1000R....
Sorry but this doesn't really apply. Totally different motor width and frame dimensions, plus, that's an 800 arm which is 10.75" at the pivot...
My '91 arm is 22.75" on the bike. Probably in the middle of the adjustment. Really a secondary consideration. I think first and foremost, if you...
