That small of an irregularity is not a big deal. In fact, I would venture a guess that most float bowls are warped to some degree. Once tight...
It seems like I've been posting this info a lot lately! Here you go, with fan switch info as well: =======================...
An early (late 80's) Integra or CRX use the same thermostat. I have the part numbers at home somewhere. Getting that from an auto parts store is...
Here is the procedure from my site, maybe this will help a bit: Daugherty Motorsports - V4 Honda Carb Removal and Installation Procedure Enjoy!
I'd say your quick fix has probably let you down. The symptoms are typical of slides not working properly - thought it certainly could be other...
I probably wouldn't worry about a .001" discrepancy in the clearance - that's really not going to hurt anything.
I really don't think that I would dictate the rest of the carburation just on the way the engine returns to idle. Those bikes always have a slow...
Just to completely correct, the internals that I adapted to your forks were CBR900RR parts. They required custom fork springs and I setup the...
I think by his own admission Dave does not have much experience with the 500's. I can tell you that it's been proven the 500's also suffer from...
This is something that happens. You'll want to keep an eye on eBay for another spark box and hope that it works! In a pinch an 84-85 part would...
AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!! Donald - please do not drill those slides. That would be a terrible mistake. It sounds like you are using a Dynojunk jet...
While it's true that a valve spring design which would correct the valve float issue would result in higher contact stresses, there really isn't...
Colt Cams or Shadbolt Cams are both great choices for that kind of work. They each have several grinds to choose from and do excellent work.
See post #6 above.
Have you considered looking at the carbs? It sounds to me like it could be a jetting issue caused by dirty carbs. A coolant change is regular...
No, they are not the same. I think it's possible to swap fron-rear, but in the least the timing marks would not line up. It's probably best to...
Huh, interesting. Falconeer - I've still got that rear wheel if you are interested. PM me and I'll make you a deal on it.
Both 1985 and 1986 parts are identical. Battle Creek huh? I was just through there on Monday!
You know, it's possible to just remove the pump all together. That's what I do with all of my VF's. Pretty much as soon as I buy them I ditch...
Exactly, rocker arm wear is the #1 cause of engine noise on those engines. The cam chain tensioners aren't the best either, but I would rule out...
