Not much of a mechanic if he 'lost the timing'. I'll assume that means he didn't know how to properly time the camshafts. The first thing you...
Welcome, and nice lookin' VFR. So... you've gone from a sport-TOURER to a SPORT-tourer. Not that a well-ridden VFR can't hang with the squids; but...
Um... not 600's. It's 'Daytona Sportbike', which includes a broad range of displacements. 2nd place was a Triumph 675, there were Ducati's (848's)...
Couple of possibilities. I'm only 6' and 62; but I can understand the problem(s). I have GenMar risers on my '86 VFR, and they do raise the bars...

What a beautiful machine Don. Absolutely beautiful. You've done a masterful job! Now the tough part I guess. Keep it and put it on a pedestal with...
Just to throw this out there... I had a V65 Sabre that went 156K miles without any cam issues, and I had a V45 'Ceptor that was on its third set...
Really cool to hear about somebody racing an RC24! Keep us posted lad, more pics and race reports would be great! :cool:
I'm with Monk on pretty much everything, and since no mention has been made yet of corners let's go there. Remember the middle-of-the-lane issue?...
Says the man with an '86 VF500F :cool:
Looks like maybe a VF500F (baby Interceptor) tail?
:worthless: Well Daddy... ya gotta post a pic or two or you're not legit. :cool: But welcome to the zoo lad. Fill in the details in your...
The 'Little Dragon' is just one segment of Hwy 49 that's interesting. Trouble with 49 is everybody knows about it. While there are plenty of...
