Based upon my '86/'87 VFR experience, i'd say the pumps are NOT rebuildable, but i hope i'm wrong. :disturbed: Seems the impeller can't be...
Really ?? Isn't it time to send this expression to a retirement home ?
First of all, i consider your opinion far from humble and very well-informed. Sorry, but i was only comparing gen 1 to gen 2. I should have been...
So what things are BETTER about any VF vs. any VFR, except for price and the Comstar wheels ?
A VF is OK if you want to ride an older, lower-tech antique. Any VFR is a big improvement, so wise up, bunky. For what a VFR can do, the prices...

Ya know, that makes a lot of good sense! Especially any old rusty dented-tank scratched-up ancient VF (except the 1kR) that needs new tires you...
How many miles on that bike ?? Stock OEM shocks are usually getting weak by 35-40,000 miles, and i think that's your main problem.
Sorry to say, but a sudden noise usually means she's about to blow up like so many other VF500s have over the years, dropping a valve and holing a...
Check in search for "VF500 valve problems". How many miles on the little bitch ?
Just by the looks of it, a bike like that '92 would need a new chain and sprockets too, so add about $190. :wink: Go for the newer bike if it...
