I think it is unlikely that a stator or RR is the fault; you can happily ride until your battery is too flat with no charging system at all. A...
I am a total convert to cartridge upgrades, and have done them on my 96 RF900, 99 VFR800, 97 VTR1000F, 09 ST1300 and 90 ST1100, plus my current 99...
When you buy someone else's bike, you really don't know what you are getting inside the mechanical parts. I've already replaced all the fluids and...
The Gold Valves duly arrived so much fork-fettling was engaged in this week. The bushings were a bit worn on one side but the others looked fresh,...
Thanks for posting the findings Chris. Makes it easier for the rest of us in fault-finding mode.
Dang...that 1100 is gorgeous! And worth a few $$ I bet. Looks like it is in very good hands.
I paid NZ$195 to get two rims powdercoated on my 86 VFR recently. That's about US$140. I removed the discs and bearings and had the tyres removed...

Makes me want to take up smoking! Nice work. My painting limit was the VFR clutch cover, it would be great to have the skills/place to work on...
Paging Squirrelman. The only reason that I know of is an over-filling carb; that means the float valve is not sealing properly, or the float...
Red shock spring + HRC sticker and you are looking at another 10mph easy...
Yeah, come on down! Our hospitality and tourism businesses need all the help they can get. The brakes are coming off as of yesterday with the...
No traction issues here. [ATTACH]
Me too; I wanted another 5th gen and preferably another red one. But the yellow/black combo is epic, and fortunately all the folks who have owned...
Over the last weekend I managed to do a thermostat-ectomy, with all of the usual shagging around that that entails. Initially had odd vacuum and...
I think our bikes may inhabit parallel universes...it certainly looks cleaner in yours...The red hoses certainly make them easier to trace.[ATTACH]
Cool; happy to help a fellow Kenny Everett fan.
Sounds like it might be the ambient air temperature sensor. That is black plastic about the diameter of a pencil. If so it should mount to the...
