May their souls ride the open road forever...
Sounds like the previous owner didn't adjust the valves right after putting in the new cam and burned the exhaust valve on the #4 cylinder from...
+1 on the what havcar said about running between 180-200 being the sweet spot. What model/yeah are we talking about here? Done a coolant flush...
I've never ridding my vfr, or any bike for that matter out of my home state of PA and I am just itching to ride the dragon. I'm gonna go ahead and...
I want to come bigtime, I graduate college second week in May. So if it ends up being after that I'm all in. I can get a real job after the dragon.
Uh, counter lean is what you do when you are pulling out of your driveway... it was designed for slow speed turns.
I'd get a pipe on that bike, having an open header affects the way the bike runs. Rumors say that due to the complete absence of backpressure and...
Boy all these trips sound awesome. I just picked my VFR up in august and only got to do two 500 mile trips across PA. The first one ended with my...

Good point, Larry. I've done stuff like that before, I'll have to dig up some scrap metal in my garage and break out the angle grinder.
Tinkerin is right, if the rear brake were the issue, it would be very difficult to turn the rear wheel by hand. Follow the leads on the choke,...
I've been looking at them too, send the seller a message and ask him what they are made of. If they're aluminum then I'll be getting em.
I like to call little washers, snap rings and stuff awshits... I'm interested to see how it does. Nice write up by the way, the pics are really nice.
Mine backfires some alittle on decel that is very audible now with the aftermarket pipe, but I could faintly hear it with the stock exhaust as...
