Here's what Honda had to do on their racebikes. [IMG] [IMG] There is only so much room available on that bike. Going bigger (and thicker) in...
Congrats on the new job! Hope it ignites some new and different passion. I can't even count the number of threads that have been started...
Nice! Congrats.
Classic lean condition. Candidate #1: About 1% of V4 owners can do a proper carb clean on their own. Something is still partially obstructed....
Oil cooler lines. If there is a sensor wire coming out of the back of the front cylinder bank, it has to be 86. Which as discussed here, is...

Too much to list. Those engines are pretty damn bullet proof, so if you think it "ran when parked", you're probably ok in that department. It's...
