Free bump...wish you had posted these parts a little earlier...I was down in Orlando mid-January and I could have picked them up locally! I'll see...
I'm pretty sure they work. Search on the parts diagrams at revzilla.com. They'll give you OEM part numbers to double check.
It could also be that your slave cylinder is also leaking....sometimes a new master cylinder will "finish them off". Leaking brake fluid is hard...
Awesome! Glad to hear it's running. Oil mist? Was he preserving it from the elements? Here's a tip for all the early carbie V4 Hondas (at least...
If it's a manual Honda fuel valve/petcock, that little triple-o-ring seal to the tank is one culprit. The inner o-ring is a more likely...
Are those for the silent type hy-vo chains, or the conventional roller type chain? If it's for the hy-vo chains, I'm interested. It'd be awesome...
You have to love this site, don't you? Solutions available to all your Interceptor troubles...(almost) 24/7! Glad to hear it's sorted out. Good...
Not his fault...that's Honda's problem. Who would even put something like that on a bike? Flat out stupidest carb design I've ever seen, and I've...
The VF1100 Sabres I've had also have that adjuster rod going from the three-position clicky dial down to the valve. Do you think it...
Congrats! Nice to know 'one of ours' is in the glossies. I haven't heard of Practical Sportsbikes myself, thanks for the post. From the looks of...
Hard to say, I'm no expert. It could be both analog and digital - there are plenty of digital controllers that run analog I/O.
Yep, I think you're right there. I'd guess the 86 box can fire coils individually once per 720deg cycle. The later bikes still fire individually,...
Sweet! Glad to hear it's good, thanks for posting an update. I've heard that conventional battery chargers will still work, but do they have any...
Vance & Hines 4 into 2? There's a good thread here. Check posts #57 & #58.
I'm sure they're all digital. Most digital control units accept analog data (like sensor inputs), but they use a DAC to convert it into digital...
I wouldn't think they're that complicated, but reverse engineering them would not be a simple task. It's just a CPU with an integrated timing...
The '86 spark box is wired to all four coils independently, I'd bet that so they can fire individually. You'd need a cam sensor to fire...
I can confirm that for you. The '86 has four connectors - three red multi-pin and a single bullet. Just out of curiosity, I checked what the '86...
You're right - I wasn't checking my info. I figured Honda just changed that "F" identifier every model year. I should have referred to the letter...
The VF500 Magna & Interceptor are relatively unloved over here (I like them so don't shoot the messenger). If you can arbitrage the American...
