It's the chain (which is very likely a 530). And I've got a wild idea... count your chain and see how many links it has.
The case covers should fit, but I can't definitively say yes. While the valve covers may have the same silhouette, it's possible their actual...
Verify your coolant level as well... at the radiator. Does it seem to run hot?
Also do you enough oil in the engine? Or any? Has someone else done an oil change on it recently?
Have the chain and sprockets been replaced recently? Conversely, do you truly know the condition of the chain and sprockets?
Please define "engine died". Like just stopped running instantly, or sputtered and then died or did you lose electrical power. Neutral is a...
I think your talent and budget are better served elsewhere for my viewing pleasure. There.... I said it. I fucking wanted my friend's CBX750...
Stock ones don't move my needle much anymore, but I def still like them. They will always be cool to me. There are some sick RestoMods out there...
Yeah... if that was around here I would buy it instantly, space for it be damned.

Offered the previous owner a day on his 1986 VFR750F (which of course he regrets selling). My buddy is finishing up his modded VTR250 but wasn't...
She just shakes her head... "My god dude. You got a problem." The other night we were riding to dinner and she asked which bike are we taking....
There was a very nice red one for sale around here last year. Price wasn't stupid, but it was all the dough. Shoulda just bought it, but I...
I know, I've ridden a few. I thought they felt like a large 1998 VFR as far as ergos and handling. A little more deliberate in handling of...
Goddammit... that is the XX I want. Fucking love that color on that bike. Trying to convince my buddy who is fairly tall and big he needs one...
It is tilted back a bit to me too. Plus I see you don't have the side brackets installed that attach to the rear of the three holes that mate the...
Don't forget you have adjustment on one of the cables near the throttle housing. 8mm adjuster and 10mm lock nut. I always give it as much slack...
Yes. They don't usually "rot out", but there is another member that did some needed patch work on his. The section gets expanded from freezing...
Squirrel, this is a VF, not a VFR. Cables are in the center of the carbs, not on the side.
For the 3rd time... NOT COOLANT!!!! it is the crankcase breather catch tank. Every now and then you drain the goo that is in there. Jeesh.
