Now you've got the first clue. I'd say the speedo cable, or the speedo itself, would be a good place to start looking.
Hummm.... kind of looks like Steve Scott's old bike....
That's pretty typical damage. The seals will fit just fine, no problems.
Here's a quick way to check if it's the speedo cable - does it follow the road speed or engine rpm? In other words, if you are moving along and...
Wow, I would want the whole bike!!! That's really too nice and complete to part out. What a shame.
I've checked this out before and found that clearance issues were a problem. Granted, this was several years ago but my numbers just didn't...
Here's my comments from the 'other' forum: "I think swapping the shock is not too big of a deal. I've heard that some people have relocated...
I support that! Let me know if you think you'll be ready for this coming weekend.
It's very significant. The stock shock is pretty much junk and allows for a lot of wallowing in the corners. You are a brave man taking one on...
I'm prototyping a set of caliper brackets right now that would allow the use the of the stock forks, calipers and wheel but the larger F/F2...
I'd probably just leave it alone. The slip-ons mostly cause disruptions in the midrange. This results in a hesitation when getting on the...
Nah, a full jet kit isn't really necessary. I'd suggest shimming the needles only, that will clean up any issues with the midrange. Since the F1...
The biggest modification to the VF500F forks involved the oil lock at the bottom of the stanchion tubes. Because the VF500F forks are a smaller...
Why, I'll do you one better!!!! http://vfrworld.com/forums/buying-selling/27121-free-vf500f-thats-right-absolutely-free.html Something...
Actually, it's because I did this three years ago! That VTR is my daily rider, the VF's only get a couple of tank fulls of gas put them each...
DKC, I guess the part that you don't realize is: Squirrelman PM'd me to tell me that he thought he damaged the pilot jets and asked...
Bump.... After some more work I've found the 15w fluid to be too heavy. With some shim stack adjustments and 10w fluid I should have it dialed...
I think you'll find there would be a lot of fabrication to make that fit. Not the least of which would be cutting out the steering stem from the...
Sorry for the delay in posting my findings, November is always the start of the busy time for me. My first inspections showed that everything...
I'm still bummed that you didn't make, I would have loved to see that in person!
