The first thing I thought of when reading the original post is steering stem bearings. Sometimes what would seem to be a simple change, like new...
I just use the "New Posts" link in the header bar. Yeah, that gets you everything but sometimes there are interesting posts in other forum areas.
That battery is just like what my friend has been building (albeit, without the fancy plastic top). He's offering them for $85 each shipped. If...
Most motorcycles will start using a 4-cell pack, what Matt bought is an 8-cell. For everyday riding that's what I would suggest using (it's what...
Yep, sure sounds like you need a good carb cleaning. Those in-tank fuel system cleaners will not fix something like this - you'd have to pull the...
That guy's comments have been around for quite some time. I think over the years we've thoroughly debunked what he said. Pretty much he is flat...
+1 for OEM, that's the only way to go. Honda seals are the only thing I install during fork rebuilds.
The difinitive source for Second Gen wheel swaps and such can be found here: The 1986-1987 VFR700F Page (New Owner Version) I hope this helps!
Just to clarify - I do not make these batteries. I know the guy who does and can attest to the quality and workmanship of his packs. I'm running...
There were issues with the Super Magna into the late 80's. The 90+ VFR750's are just fine, so it's safe to assume somewhere in there Honda pinned...
The only change I'm aware of was to the hardening of the rocker arms. That was one of the problems with the First Gens. Let's not forget a...
Well, that's certainly not a spark box problem - sounds like a carb issue. Most likely it's the pilot circuits, probably time for a good ol'...
The pulse generators are common failure, so that's certainly something to check. It's pretty easy to do so you might as well. If that's not your...
I'd say so, especially considering that the bike has Showa suspension and you put KYB stickers on it!!! Either way it looks nice, good job!
It's commonly thought that the oiling problems were fixed in the second generation VFR's, but that's not 100% accurate. There are actually some...
+1 Facebook isn't your problem. It's just as safe as VFRWorld. I'm guessing those people got your address from some other means and it's just a...
I always had tire wear issues with the BT's too. About the best tire I've found for the stock wheels is the Dunlop GT501's. Great grip and long...
If the carbs were the problem I think you would feel bad surging or other major misbehavior of the bike. I'd say there is something else going...
Man, I rode NW Arkansas last year and loved it. It was just me and the 1098 and I had a ball. I think anyone who rides the Ozarks will come home...
Very true!!!
