Sounds like my old tendencies with oil filters, tighten it until yer knuckles are white. Seriously folks, hand tight is OK on oil filters,...
Yep, it pays to do it yourself. The last time I had anyone do stuff to my bike was when I got new tires put on, I can trust my local tire guy for...
Sonic Springs, they have a spring rate calculator on their website.
#BG-2675 from CRC2 worked for my 86 VFR750FG when I replaced two of my float bowl gaskets. I guess it was a combo of staying up too...

Yeah, they make the BT-45's in bias-ply for the VFR sizes.
I am not writing the Keyster kits off, they work fine- I just never used the needles. I couldn't get my slide screws off to get access to them on...
