These "Sutekus 2PC Set Tire Changer Tire Bead Clamp Drop Center Tool" for $23 made tire installation much, much easier (in a relative sense)....
Make sure you're buying the correct rack. I have the V37s on a V Strom, and I originally bought an incorrect rack for them. I wanted the rapid...
Thanks for the words of encouragement, Cap. That picture is awesome. I absolutely believe that comfort and ability would outpace raw power--that's...
Damn, that's one hell of a month! Greetings from just a bit north of you. -Fuel tank bumpers went missing when I pulled the tank off, doh!...
Knowing your attention to detail, I think it would have been a pretty expensive platform since a lot of it is in pretty rough shape. It didn't...
Thanks for the suggestion on the RuGlyde. I'll pick some of that up when I grab some more brake fluid this week. I was looking at some tire waxes...
In a weekend full of motorcycle losses, at least I managed to get one thing figured out that had stumped previously. I managed to remove the Vance...
So this was just brilliant. I never would have considered using the trashed lower I have as a clamp. Worked like a charm. If that didn't work, I...
Before I go any further, does anyone have advice on how to loosen the front axle once the wheel is off the bike? The manual I have just says to...

I actually think it's kind of funny. I hope it's one of: 20 years registration, 2500 messages, or special vote by high VFRWorld council.
I wish I had a good suggestion on where to find '86 intake boots, but I can't find them in stock anywhere. The '84-85 were very easy to find and...
Going to pick up some of that Trim and Bumper paint, thanks for sharing what you used.
I've got some brake pressure now. So I pulled off the master cylinder from the VF500 for another inspection and cleaning. I was surprised to see...
It started from a really bad spot. It's not that I haven't tried to go and verify that all the orifices weren't clean... it's that I was...
Thanks for all the suggestions. Diving Pete, one of my worries was that I installed the seal backwards, but I don't actually think it's possible...
... the what? ... there are 2 holes? f***! I just made a post on my rebuild thread that would be entirely resolved if that were the case. That...
