Yeah, that is a Corbin seat with the rear back panel done in white. Hehe, my Corbin also has drywall screws on the bottom too! :hss:
Avon Roadriders AM26 are hard to beat for a vintage application.
Well, if you have an OEM and you look right below the teeth in the pic there are two metal spacers held on by retaining rings held in with what...
Didn't come stock on the bike, so yeah.
The width of the sprocket including the spacers on both sides and the retainer? Or just the width of the sprocket part itself?
The guys at my tire shop love the Avons on the track and swear by them.
I like that paint scheme on the Rothman's. I think my first VFR will go with that kit when I get the new tire on. Cleaning the carbs and valve...
Whoops. I got mixed up and thought you were talking about a 750. My bad, they do look pretty similar to a 700/750 switch.
The design was marginally okay as long as the plastic retains it's strength. The problem is this type of plastic becomes brittle over time and the...
Man, just get the circular O-ring Viton. That is ridiculous to pay that price each when you can just get an o-ring that will work just as well for...
These starter buttons like the one in my 86 750 had known design flaws that only get worse with time. Save yourself time and frustration and go to...
Could have just been corroded connections. Run the stator test like squirrel said. Be sure you have a fully charged battery.
Chuck that old battery, if you had to refill cells odds are some of them are dead and no amount of electrolyte will bring it back.
So what do you do if you have to test the R/R when you solder the wires together?
There is no need to solder those wires on an 86 or 87, they are sufficiently sized. You need to make sure the metal connectors are not corroded...
I have had to point out this fact to feebay sellers trying to sell 700 fairings as 750.
I was about to say I would eat my hat if my stock 750 produced 102hp until I read your post further.
No, bore is the same, stroke on the 700 is shorter and the rods are longer to get the 700cc. Besides that they are the same bike.
I have two center stands, do you double hate me too?
Rear tires always wear out before the front, usually at a 2:1 ratio. YMWV with tires depending on type of tire and where and how you ride.
