Ok, so on my VF the steering stem bearings were the originals, and they were feeling sloppy, so I removed the top triple clamp nut, clamp,...
Image of allen bolt: [IMG]
they're on the bottom if you take the caliper off. So I cleaned up the allen bolt inside sealing cap with a dremel and put thread sealer on it. no...
lol, good story. i read that there is dot4 resistant teflon tape. i have tried tightening the bolt with about 25 ftlbs and it leaked, so that is...
Thanks... I'm referring to the allen key drain plug at the bottom of the caliper. Will teflon tape be eaten by the brake fluid? I was reading...
I rebuilt my 84 VF1000F's front calipers. Now the one caliper's drain plug is leaking. I took it out when I cleaned the calipers, nd now it's...
Which craigslist?
Anyone know where I can get the bottom plastic a battery box for my 1984 VF1000F? It's discontinued from Honda. Just something that the battery...
Do you mean watch the lever without pulling it in? Or squeeze the lever mid-way and see what happens when I put pliers on the line? What am I...
was i supposed to fill the plunger first with brake fluid in the m/c before reassembling it? I actually put new lines on, too (well, I...
Good points. I angled the mc up, down, left, right, while pumping the lever. No bubbles got out. I tapped the m/c with the wood-end of a hammer...

How big is the tiny hole for the return path for the fluid? The lever returns to full out slowly and it seems the hole is still filled up with...
Is that why I have to pump so many times after bleeding with just one opening of the bleeder screw?
On my VF500 I just totally rebuilt both calipers and the master cylinder. I cleaned out the 25-yr old gunk that settled in the calipers and m/c. I...
Ok, that totally might have happened - I am the third owner. Off to the dealer I go for some parts!
Having previously bled my '83 VF, the clutch lever feels firm, so it seems there isn't any air in the line. What kind of abuse would cause the...
Strange...when I start off on my VFR and keep the revs below 4k, it takes off smooth. But, when I start off with revs above about 4k, the bike...
Maybe they'll have something like the variable cam in the ZX-14 and bump up the displacement. A MotoGP replica and replace the VFR? I'd say not a...
I adjust them a bit on the wee tight side, with two feeler gauges and the special tool by Honda that "lifts" the cam up, plus that long wrench to...
