UPDATE. I examined the starter clutch body thoroughly and it appears all normal. Since putting everything back together I have done about 200...
I tend to agree with him. I took my bike for a spin today and there were no leaks from the cover, even from the area of the bolt that was loose....
I think you may have solved it. When I took the bolts off I very carefully arranged them in the same order that I took them off. However when I...
I checked the starter clutch on my 1995 a few days ago, and when putting my clutch cover on the bolt directly above the dip stick did the same...
Took a while but I took the clutch cover off today. The 3 bolts on the clutch starter body are tight and there are no cracks. One thing I did...
Nice workmanship on your part, but the rear looks to be a little too high and somewhat strange.
Say what? Get a Gold Wing! Isn't that a 2 wheeled car with every gizmo?
Get a Corbin for your bike. Have one on mine, and can ride long distances in comfort.
Can't remember where I got the info. from, but someone stated that if it was the starter clutch causing my problems, lean the bike to the left...
Nice looking machine, How about some close up photos.
Try changing the front fork fluid. I had the same feeling on my 4th gen, no feel to the front end. After changing the fluid with 10w, it made a...
BT-16's are a reasonable price.
Walk away from this bike. There are a lot nicer VFR's around on Kijiji. They maybe somewhat older, but it is not unusual to be able to pick one...
Basically every bike I have ever owned, except my 1990 VFR has done this. My back is not completely in alignment, and I am pretty sure that is...
Rode 1500 miles on a GSXR1000 with a plug in the rear tire. Cruised between 50-90 mph. Plug didn't lose any air, and at the end of the trip I...
Seeing as you live near the Gap, get a 600, any brand, and go there at least once a week. You'll get out of this thinking. A road I think is...
No offence, but how do you manage to get 10 k miles out of a rear BT16? I run them on my sport bike, and am lucky to get 4 k out of a rear. What...
I like Rossi. I think he is pretty much the greatest rider of all time. The problem he is experiencing now is that he is just plain getting old....
Thanks for the info. Makes sense to me. It's too intermittent for me to believe that it is anything serious. It does make me reluctant, until...
Thanks for the offer. The bike has now been making the noise for about 2000 k. It only does it on idle and very intermittently. It is more of a...
