I had the same problem, RR went out and I got stranded. Luckily I push started it, got halfway home and it stalled. Push started it again and got...
Bizarre Oil Leak From Exhaust Port? SOLVED Hi guys, I have an 86 VFR700 and I've been trying to track down this small oil leak on the front right...
I'm not familiar with this early style bike, but if you have a pushrod going through a seal, one possible fix is to pull the rod out and apply...
I'm pretty sure the red pilot jet is correctly named. Since it mainly works at idle, I suppose you could also call it the idle jet. Is the blue...
I checked the carb sync since it may have changed since the last time I did it and sure enough it was not sync'ed to the main carb #2. I balanced...
Well raising the float didn't help. Is there a pilot air valve? Maybe it's blocked. I'll pull my plugs and check them once the engine is...

I did sync them. I have removed the pilot screw and blown compressed air into the hole while blocking the 3 little holes in the venturi and it...

Check this out. Note that the pillion mounts are steel like the 86-87 model instead of aluminum like the 88-89 models. It seems the cowl...
Hey guys, I don't know if this is a problem or not, but it bugs me. On my 86 VFR700 the number one exhaust pipe doesn't warm up like the others...
Potholes..
Hey Captb, can you give me some specs on that damper, like body diameter (22mm?) and stroke? My 86 came with a damaged damper that was a...
Alright. Glad you found it. :)
OP might be installing projector headlight or cleaning reflector. He didn't say anything was cracked.
