All VF500F dropped valves are caused by the keepers "slide hammer"ing the keeper groove off the end of the valve stem. Valve lash has nothing to...
Something to keep in mind is that the main oil gallery type kit came first, the oil filter plate type second. The 500's can certainly use an...
This begs the question of the definition between "mods" and "customizations".
Are you sure that you aren't looking at the gauge sending unit? The sending unit and fan switch are two separate parts.
Hey man, I don't check visitor messages very often. Shoot me an e-mail to jamie@daughertymotorsports.com if you need anything else. Thanks!
This is a great how-to on the install, but the tuning bits should be taken with a grain of salt. For example, he changed from Maxima 5wt that has...
It's the elephant in the room guys. A switch that is part of the system is smoking - I'd say you need to get that fixed before doing anything...
I've already setup Matt with a rear shock and we have a plan in place for his forks. All he needs to do is find some time to stop riding and get...
The shock lengths are very different. The 2nd gen part is much shorter. While usually it's possible to lengthen shocks, the Hagons are not very...
Whoa! Yeah, the new part should not have had that additional section. Not sure what's going on, it's been several years since I bought one of...
I don't see anything wrong either, but it's not the cam lobes that are the problem - it's the rocker arm contact faces. You need to pull the cams...
Guys, I'm still struggling to understand what the fuss is all about. The stock 84-85 petcock works fine for gravity feed - what more do you need...
Sure man, I've been quite a few 929's for the 6th gens lately. Hey Matt, did you see this thread describing the de-linking process?...
Interesting! Does this mean you'll be having an R motor for sale soon then?
I'm not sure that it does. I've converted several VF's to gravity feed and never changed the petcock on any of them. I've never had a single...
Yep, I guess that I've fallen into the "I've got one on order" trap too many times. It sounds like you've done as much as you can, hopefully it...
Did they check warehouse inventory? The Honda system works weird, hopefully you will actually get the part!
Congrats and welcome! Make sure to keep us up to date on your progress.
If it runs, that's a great deal. A couple of weeks ago I sold a complete, somewhat rough around the edges, non-running 84 VF700F for $400. Just...
I've heard that you can add a resistor in series with the signals. Do you know if that is true?
Separate names with a comma.
