The oil mod should be available from Dave Dodge. I emailed him a little less than a year ago and the kit goes for about $300. Best pre-made kit...
On my 1985 VF700F I had the Avon RoadRider tires. They're supposedly the best all-around bias ply tires you can get and one of the few brands...
IMHO as long as you make sure the threads are nice and clean beforehand and no brake fluid is in them, with the plug tightened all the way the...
When I rebuilt my brakes, The bleed nipples had a good amount of corrosion. I took apart and blasted/cleaned the calipers and wire brushed the...
You have yourself sort of a "Jumbo Shrimp" situation there. If the clutch is hydraulic it uses no cable and IS somewhat adjustable, you'll need...
It sounds like it might be gradually dripping from the rear head's valve cover down to the collector. Take a look at the rear head with a...
Yeah I've been to his shop once or twice. I've heard some not so good things about his repairs but I haven't seen any of it firsthand. It seems...
I could be wrong since there are slight undocumented differences in the few years of 700s and 750s but in the FSM it shows the connector for the...
Personally I don't even have the time for it anymore. My dad's multiple projects are sitting and he's expecting me to do all the work for him...

Well in the FSM it says the default pilot screw setting is 2 1/2 turns out for 750 and 3 turns out for the 700. I'll get a picture of the plugs...
Checked the plugs and pilot screws today. Plugs looked light chocolate brown, all pilot screws were around 3 1/4 turns out. Toying with the...
I had to get fork tubes for a 1985 vf700f and I just went the safe route and ordered bran new ones. Call Frank's Forks out in Illinois. A brand...
Here's some pictures of the fuel pump and wiring of it. Looks like someone put on a Mitsubishi fuel pump and changed the wiring for it? FSM shows...
Well upon further inspection of the oil it doesn't seem to be ruined with gas. It just seemed extremely thin when it was hot and i feared that it...
Sorry about that I didn't word that quite right. I meant lean condition from carbs/pilot screws or from petcock/etc low fuel flow
If I'm running lean will it give me shitty throttle response too? I'm not sure if its surging due to lean condition or if it might be fuel...
Well the tank isn't perfect but all I can see is some slight rust color and spots but doesn't seem at all serious enough for debris to get...
The carb history as of now is a mystery to me. I bought it with 11,000 original miles in about the same running condition as it is now. It seems...
Well, the bike was winterized for the most part and any time it was remotely warm i would run it, so Im pretty sure the problem never actually...
