My first dirt bike was a Hodaka Super Rat! What a blast! I remember the sparkplug fouled a lot. I always carried a spare plug - and a book of...
Please post an image of the dyno run. Thanks.
I have had a similar experience. Although, I must admit - when I see a Ducati 996 I go weak in the knees . . . .
I appreciate the squirrel. I agree with his assessment of the 1983-85 VFs, but I am an addict. Still, now that my 1984 VF750F is running well I...
Honda is aiming the 1200 at a different demographic than your average VFRWorld member. I think the poll results reflect that.
I voted no, but mostly for the reasons Reg71 laid out. I don't replace bikes often, and I never buy new. If someone stole my '04 VFR, I would...
A Ducati shop owner once told me that a bike was "new" unless it had 25 miles on the odometer. Then it's a demo. Maybe that was Ducati's rule....
Minor threadjack - Jamie, I am running one of your modded F4i shocks on my 1984 VF750F with stock wheel - at least for now. It's a great...
Well, you really couldn't have set the sag properly before you installed the shock . . . . One last thing - it can be very dangerous to ride...
The preload aduster is the ring at the bottom of the shock. I believe position "1" is the lightest setting.
Man! That stock saddle! Ugh . . . .
I am guessing that the misalignent is so gross that the strings (straightedges) will show it. If not, Slow isn't out anything except the beers he...
Slow, you can check wheel alignment with the string method all by yourself - SportRyder's Wheel Alignment Method It might not hurt to buy a...
invisible cities wrote - Slow has inspected the front to rear sprocket alignment and this checks out. As a next step the front and rear wheels...
This is a messy job and I don't have an impact wrench. I wonder if it makes sense to pull the fork legs and take them to the dealer for seal...
The bike had been in storage for 18 months. When I bought the bike the PO said he had the fork tubes straightened . . . .
Well, now the LEFT seal is leaking too! Unbelievable!
