Due to the mounting and inlet/outlet sizes (small), probably gonna have to get creative adapting a style like the later 90 - 97 VFRS use. I...
You tell us... is the battery dead? Please define, "I leave the bike for a month". Sitting with the key off, unused the whole time? I think...
Finally a little more progress. Pulled the front end apart last night. [ATTACH] Everything came apart very nicely. Front axle slid out easily...
Should just need to make sure there is clearance thru the steering range for a banjo & hose to clear that is now mounted on the end of the master,...
I couldn't get to the front of my 95 last night for a clear shot, too many projects going on to move everything. But this is the style I put on...
@102dalz - I cut a brown wire to one of the back illumination bulb sockets and crimped on a male & female bullet connector with the thin USB...
Godamn, I probably have 8 hours into the seat and bump, easy. Cover(s) removal, cutting, shaping and smoothing the pan, blending foam,...

Sweet! Welcome!!
"starter relay fuses were cooked" Plural? Are you referring to the Main Fuse? (singular)
This is post #4 in this whole ordeal. And it's exactly what happened. You read enough to fumble thru bench synching but never came across the...
How old is the rad cap? They are like tetanus shots... if you can't remember the last one and immediately tell the doctor, you're getting one.
Have you recently "topped off" your coolant res tank? Was it a hot day? Sounds like your rad cap released some coolant to the res tank and it...
I use a strip of medium stock paper (~7mm wide) as a feeler gage. Get a nice repeatable drag on the base carb (over the small hole in the bore)...
The carb with the idle adjust is your base, correct. What is your bench synch method?
What "gap"? Either you have the carbs synched or not. The idle adjustment screw is moving all 4 butterfly plates (and changing the "gap"), and...
