Darn, that's too bad. Is it the relay then? I replaced the one on my VF700 before I sold it, but symptoms were different. Out of curiosity, are...
I'm sorry if I wasn't clear - Yes, I pushed the start button for just a brief second, let it go and the pump activated.
The tank is off, no fuel, just testing the functionality of the pump. After depressing the Start button the pump activated, ran for some time then...
Cap'n, I put the Carter in the place of the stock pump, pushed the start button for a second and the Carter whirred into action. I did not jump...

Oh, actually by changing my search there IS a whole vf700f set for sale...
I lost my keys to the '85 VF700F. Literally in a few steps. I grabbed three sets of keys, two to start the Hondas and one for the Yamaha to work...

Hi guys and Happy 4th of July! I am waiting for a new rear shock. I had the bike up on the rear stand with the shock off. I bumped into it moving...
Well, finally got the 700 running. Turns out to be a nice handling pig of a bike, pretty fun. It seems there were a couple things going on. The...
