A lot of times if you take an older bike in to do a "simple" repair on, it can turn into a nightmare. Case in point: I took in an older GPZ1100...
I'd check the CCT's first. Very common problem and an easy fix.
One more bike I regret selling. As soon as I can find another and have the means to buy it, I will. Go ahead and buy it, you won't regret it.
Me at Chimney Rock, NC.
Check your ground wire at the chassis and the battery. A loose ground can cause all kinda wacky stuff to go on. I just fixed an r6 that when you...
Sounds like the forks may be twisted in the triple clamps. Put the bike on the center stand, raise the front end, and loosen the forks in the...
Sargent seat is way better than stock, money well spent. Even though the bags are expensive, they are well worth the $$. As for the mods, I would...
Yeah, the stabil won't work for 5 yrs. Ditto what chesthing said about the tank, lines, and pump. You may even have varnish on the injector tips....
If you go during the week and either morning or evening it's not bad at all. Every time I've been there during these times it's been relatively...
Gotta be something screwed up somewhere. I used to average 180 miles per tank on my 99 no matter how or where I rode it. You would probably be...
Either ebay them or put them in the classifieds here. I'm sure someone will buy them. I've bought a set and they shipped them to me, so thats not...
I have a zg and ordered a puig. The puig came in a purplish tint whereas the zg is almost black. zg all the way.
I've regretted selling two bikes that I've had. One, like stewartj239, I had an 86 vf500 that was almost perfect, sold it because I needed the...
I went from a 99 to an 06 as well and I don't regret it a bit. Vtec is a non issue for me, I think it looks better and handles better. I love the...
I consistently get @200 miles per tank. My 06 has @7200 miles and is stock. That is usually what I get while commuting to work, some rural some...
This is from the May VFRd meet. I hope to take some co-workers up in July that have never been.
At least you got the shock spanner. All mine came with was an allen wrench and a screwdriver. At the bare minimum they should have the hub spanner...
What's up with that 5% at fault crap! Just 'cause the guy's riding a bike he's found a little bit at fault. Just goes to show you how screwed up...
Sounds about right. We charge 1 hr/carb. to clean. If they need more work it could run a bit higher. Depends on the labor rate at each shop. Ours...
The 5th doesn't have a red bar. On a 6th gen when the last bar starts flashing, it flashes black/red.
Separate names with a comma.
