Yes it is normal for these wires to get warm, I also soldered mine before my connector did what your did and they've gone from too hot to hold to...
"Though I'm not the one to throw around opinions much on how things look...my moto is trashed! :/" I think "well-used" would describe your bike Jen.
Just to add to SM's comment and based on a VF750 diagram, coolant from the water pump flows up to the cylinders, splits in to the front and rear,...
Certainly sounds like you have some blocked passages within the cylinder blocks. Flushing hard with the hose sounds like the best that you can do,...
True enough, but they are a bit related, similar frame and radiators AND the same colour! I don't use the head stand on my VFR because I have a...
Depends which way I'm facing. I almost never park pointed downhill, and if I do I would definitely leave it in first, but wouldn't feel confident...
I have previously been using a block of lumber under the headers. Just recently, I had to replace a front exhaust gasket. Coincidence? The best...
http://www.daughertymotorsports.com/vfr800.html I have a shock and fork parts from Mr Jamie Daugherty; well worth doing and at 76000 miles your...
On my ST1100, I had a similar problem which turned out to be a weak spark, low voltage reaching the ECU and coils due to corrosion in the big red...
I don't know of any video, but I found the VFR to be a really easy machine to check valves on, once you get the cam covers off. Gear drives mean...
Does your bike have a vacuum fuel tap? Might have a small leak or diaphragm hole. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Good idea Oz; I've got a few of those. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
OK not really my speciality. However, from '02 onwards the VFRs have chain-driven cams (gear driven from 86-01), and camchain tensioners tend to...
It's not obvious on Tapatalk; what year VFR have you got? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yes, I do have a 5G. I'd suggest you start by cutting out the stator connector and soldering in some wire to make up the length, then see what you...
Faran, my understanding is that on the RR-stator, you just need to remove the connector, and join any pair of yellow wires, so that you end up...
I'd try jump starting off your car battery. If the jump leads get hot, pull your bike battery out of the circuit and try again. Sounds most like a...
Yes that is correct. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'm just going from memory here Steve (and it's not the best) but I recall the 85 and 86 are different, where the 85 has a completely flat gasket...
The headlight circuit is deliberately disconnected by the starter button when you push it (presumably so the starter has more amps available), so...
