The frame and engine are 6th gen carry overs. --- The rear wheel would work if you buy a new hub, rear brake. But the 8th is separate brakes...
I've seen a lot of guys do that. I just wired it with a separate switch so I can check battery voltage before start up. It helps with no surprises...
Nice job!
Hey Zoom -- what about an aluminum sealer. I am looking at something called Zoop Seal and also have read some good things about Optimum Opti-Seal....
So waht parts would you need? I have the mother lode of stock brake parts wasting away under my work bench. I did a full brake delink to RC51...
recheck above post 12 with edits...... (I'm slow..) May as well add a btw.... stock stators generally go 40ish to 60ish miles. You may have one...
Well those reading are in the good range. --- maybe just ride it awhile......Do you have a voltmeter on the bike to watch voltage trends of what...
Hey Zoom -- Thanks for the info. I am a polish tryout addict. On the Valkyrie, there is always something to work on.
Just a quick note for a data point. I'm on my 3rd season for the Compufire and it still is running fine even with quite regular trips to redline.
+1 for a metal polish. Mothers is very good and so is Meguiars products. - No sanding or steel wool....
No - you need to do the tests while hot. That will point to either/or... Stator or R/R - Thats why "the drill" has -- repeat hot............ my...
I dont trust those strait LED voltage monitors because the cutoff for "green" is in the high 12v area. Thats fine for idle, but its in the...
Dude, I'm serious, replace the stock bleeder with the speed bleeder part. Its a check valve so that it doesnt let air in when you pump the master...
Replace the stock bleed valve with a speed bleeder - use a SB8125L. --- Life will be much easier. [IMG]
Another tip on that is use a JIS standard screw driver as opposed to a Philips. The shape of the tip is different and may be the difference...
I think Billy nailed it. Quite often if brakes are dragging, gunk in the master cylinder is blocking return flow so the caliper pistons can "back...
I'm not sure I would agree with with Honda's Engineer. I read that and kinda scratched my head. More spokes would be stiffer than a wheel with...
That would be correct. Design engineering wise its a tough assignment. But on the front typically an F4i wheel will fit. Again I would double...
If you know you're gonna shit can the chain, just grab a cutoff wheel and cut thru a set of side plates on the the bottom loop of the chain. 30...
