Thanks Dukiedook.
Yep, ridding while fatigued can, of course, bite you on the rear. When I first started racing MX I found myself, and other novice riders, so tired...
When you get it all back together run 12 volts direct to the fuel pump for 30 seconds or so. This should prime the system and save you a lot of...
Eric, your strength is something that I think we all can look up to. I know I can. And the same respect can be paid to you Carl. Stay strong guys.
You're in V heaven alright! Now all you need is a V6, V8 and V12 Jag... no wait, you've probably got those too... And ya, that RVF is one sharp...
Sorry for your tragic loss Eric. I'm sure your brother is very happy to know that you've got her running strong again. Btw, have you...
Is the '87 switch the same as an '86? Thanks!
Welcome aboard Viffer86, and thanks for the interesting post! I too have an '86 and it bothers me just to look at the wimpy 37 mil forks. What was...
Looks like you may need to use a mild to moderate strength spray type carb cleaner.
Double check that the yel/grn control circuit wire is being energized. If not, check the fuse (if applicable) and the control circuit wiring....
Sorry, meant to say fuel pump relay. Seven years of sitting in a humid barn can, of course, take a toll on electrical devices (i.e. ignition...
Sorry to hear the bad news. Sounds like someone started it, or tried to start it... I'd disconnect the bat, put the key away, and chain the...
Welcome to the forums bordin, I'd skip the car battery idea and wait until you have the proper bat and new plugs. Meanwhile, you'll probably...
Like others, I'm going to say that replacing the valve would be a lot less work, and far safer, then trying to salvage it. Seriously, the last...
Thanks for the tip squirrelman! The fan switch is working. However, the temp gauge is not, so I'll need to troubleshoot that before I ride it....
Thanks for all the advice CB-1! I happen to have an accurate hand air pump for the rear shock on my mountain bike. Should work I suppose. The...
35K miles, spindly 37 mil fork tubes, near-new Bridgestone tires, and a Yoshi slip-on. The good thing is that my wife has been looking forward to...
The hills, the road, and the bike are all top notch. Thanks for posting!
I'll let the infinitely more knowledgeable members give an in-depth answer to that. However, most makes and models from that era, or before, have...
I too would probably use a simple little test light. I say this because some sellers might not agree with allowing a prospective buyer to go...
