That's a Diode symbol on the top of that item, so at that point in the bike's wiring harness Honda needed to insure electricity could only flow in...
Every item has markings (some have more than one) that allow you to reassemble the cylinder head from a pile of parts. Numbers are stamped onto...
I'm sure there's a fuel tank in there somewhere, wonder how many liters/gallons it holds. With this engine and its (apparent) fuel capacity...
Cosworth pistons? I'll be watching the rehab of the bike. Lots of pictures would be nice.
I'm surprised at your findings on the valve clearances. The bike has 55K miles, this is the first time you've checked clearances, and somehow all...
That's surprising to see. So you're saying this in the first time you have been inside the cylinder head? Are you the original owner? Are you...
What was the nature of the engine problem? Did I miss your description of what happened? From reading back in the thread I'm guessing the issue...
Yeah, it's a bit of work to go through the valves but you're really gonna like how this engine responds to proper valve clearances. It's worth...
I'm really enjoying your work.
I've had very good experience with Hagon rear shocks on two smaller bikes: a 2005 Kawasaki EX250 and a 1993 Suzuki GSF400. No problems with the...
It's funny that a lot of 5th Gen VFR owners haven't read VFR800 Service Manual Chapter 21 "Technical Features", but this chapter is some really...
The "fail-safe" temperatures for the ECT and IAT are listed in the manual, Chapter 21, on page 21-29.
Have you looked at Chapter 21 of the manual? This is the chapter entitled, "Technical Features" and on pages 21-14 and 21-15 there are Ohm...
Nice work, when I did my refurbishment work on my '99 5th Gen in the Fall/Winter of 2016-2017 I didn't do the Pair block-off but now I'm liking...
It's a fact that our 5th Gen VFR800s are now 20 years old. I don't know how long Honda intended the original fuel pump and fuel pressure...
Great way to start out with Honda, you picked the Honda with the most character (possibly the last evidence of the old Honda greatness), and the...
The "mesh filter" isn't a filter, it's function is to perform as an anti-splash for the returned excess fuel flow from the fuel rail (the returned...
There's a pretty good chance that a prior owner of your '98 VFR put in stiffer clutch springs when he replaced the clutch plates, it's a very...
The "driven" end of the water pump's impeller shaft is open into the engine oil of the crankcase, so this side of the shaft has an oil seal on it....
The single statement you made in this post that really got my attention is: "... and the delivery gets very choppy" It sounds like you're...
