Boy, it's a good thing the folks who design and produce motorcycles don't think like you guys. If so we would still be riding CB350's, changing...
The part that gets me is that the bike not only has 84-85 bodywork but also the earlier wheels. The 86 wheels were all black. Something else to...
Unfortunately it won't. The 86-87 VFR's use the shortest shocks of any Honda so you won't find anything else that is a direct fit.
That bike looks decent, but nowhere near $1500. I'd say $800 is a good price from what I'm seeing (did you see the damage to the tank?). Not...
You might want to be careful there. I advise that you observe a 9000rpm max engine speed to avoid dropping valves. That means running through...
Hey guys, I think we discussed the main jet differences in another post but here it is again: The different size main jets have nothing to do...
I don't know of anyone installing an FI system on a VF yet, but it has been done on many older (and less sophisticated) machines successfully....
Why not?!?!?!?!?!
Keep the main jets stock, that's the first piece of advice I'd give you. You'll need to dial in the needles but there really isn't much anyone...
It looks clean and it's a decent price. Buy it!
Man, I would buy that in a heartbeat. In fact, it would be worth the drive for me to get it (assuming the price was right). Sure, there is lots...
Getting FI to work on carburated engine is not that difficult really. The Megasquirt system provides all of the control needed. All you have to...
You do not "turn" the main jet nor the slow jet, the only adjustment controls the idle mixture (pilot screw). If you are having troubles it's...
Thanks for keeping us updated. I would agree that it seems copper head gaskets are a touchy item. I would still like to give it a shot, but your...
Yeah, that's normal. You'll need a LOT more than a couple dozen pumps. Sometimes it takes a good 10-15 minutes of constant pumping to get the...
Copper gaskets are made from a very soft type of copper. While I've heard that some people have seen problems with sealing, others have not. I...
E-gads! It looks like I need to bump up the VF500F valve springs on the list of projects! I'd say the cost would need to be 25-30% of that quote...
Sure, later model VFR's also have cartridge forks. Those should be long enough to not have clearance issues either.
Getting the carbs back on isn't the most pleasant thing in the world, but if you use this procedure it shouldn't be too bad: Daugherty...
Oh heavens no! The F4's are cartridge forks. The only issue would be they are shorter than the F2 or F3 forks. That means you'd have to check...
