I replaced the R/R in my 4th gen '95 (thread here), and I have the old SH638-12 regulator sitting here. The bolt center-to-center distance is 7...
From the manual: [img] Looks like a feedback wire of some sort, should read approximately the voltage at the battery. It's for the regulator's...
Well I lost the auction on the CBX luggage rack, but I'm glad I did because I eventually found out about Pelican cases. I bought a pair of 1520...
Couple guys on a local forum are going with the Sena SMH10. One guy has been researching what intercom system to get for a while, and this review...
Thanks for that, I'll definitely keep an eye out for Krauser. I like how it mounts, but I may need to either modify it to make it wider or...
I'm planning another long camping trip on a bike this summer, but I'm seriously thinking about taking the VFR this year instead of the Katana....
Upgrading the wiring really just consists of replacing the wiring and connectors with heavier stuff. If you can, use better heavier connectors....
Wherever two plates contact each other, there should be an o-ring between them. When I changed my horribly worn chain/sprockets on my Katana last...
Well I've been riding it for several days now and I've noticed the front has softened up. I searched around for clues as to why, and it seems that...
I suppose you could try pulling the oil seal out by drilling holes in it. Unless you have one of those stupid leak-proof seals, it should have a...
From Where Is Motorcyclecarbs.com - ThumperTalk Community EDIT: Slow response seems to be a common complaint, if the Google search for them is...
I searched around and the impression I got was that straight-rate springs were better than progressive rate springs for a sporty ride. Now there...
I got around to replacing the fork springs as I talked about in this thread: "Advice/tips for replacing fork springs in 4th gen" It wasn't too...
There are several factors that could have contributed to its failure. To start, the stock R/R is known to be weak. Second, electronics don't like...
Sounds like a failing R/R to me. You should be near 14 volts while running, probably higher. A weak battery shouldn't pull the charging voltage...
Your rotor could be coned, which is a kind of consistent warp. I had this happen to the rear rotor on my Katana. One way to check is to hold a...
Quick way to check is to do a rolling start in second gear (helps to have someone push you). Turn the bike on, put it in 2nd, and have someone...
Interesting that you mention that... it has a little under 19K miles, and makes a clunk noise when I brake hard and compress the forks, and a...
Sounds good, thanks!
I bought my VFR late last year, and the front suspension is a lot softer than I'd prefer. So I recently bought a pair of Race Tech 1.0 kg/mm...
