I am reasonably sure that you can disassemble the ignition switch without too much effort. There are rotating contacts in there with grease, maybe...
You can also leave the rear calliper completely untouched, and join both standard brake hoses at the rear master, using a double banjo bolt which...
The VTEC spool valve is the solenoid that opens oil flow to trigger the VTEC system and allow your bike to run on all 16 valves above 7000 rpm or...
As I get older I do enjoy a mellow tone as opposed to a loud exhaust. The Delkevic is not excessive but I do enjoy the stock exhaust more.
The mirrors for the 00-01 VFR800 are a direct bolt on, and I had some Emgo pattern ones on my last VFR. This bike came fitted with the Sargent...
Step 1 would be to find out what fault code is triggering the FI light. There is a diagnostic procedure in the manual that causes the FI to flash...
Yay! Yellow VFR's rule. Welcome SMYellowVFR. I had a red 99, sold it in 2019 and missed it, and bought my current yellow 99 at the start of last...
Thats the problem with a digital temp gauge; the numbers look scary. In the olde days we made do with a conventional gauge and never worried...
Try this link, manuals are under the "downloads" section....
If you have access to a car and jumper cables, I would try a jump and see if that allows the bike to start. Batteries can fail through internal...
I did the maths and assumed that the bike was all stock including the tyre size (170/60) and final gearing (43/16), in which case at 62...
I am a big fan of EBC HH pads, but would say that they make a bit more hiss noise than a standard pad. I have not had any unusual disc wear as a...
Maybe the tipover switch on the front subframe is loose; that would also explain why you need to reset the ignition to get things started again....
My last VFR800 had a grabby takeoff after 95000km, even when it was warm. I put new EBC fibre discs in and the clutch feel and action were like a...
The grounding issue with the 5th gen VFR often occurs in the common ground block. This is a rectangular block approx 1.5cm square and is taped...
A-ha, I had not thought of that one. I was reasonably convinced my first ST1300 had some major mechanical malady like a blown head gasket as it...
You are not going to get oil pouring out from a badly installed spark plug, but the Captain is correct that a badly installed gasket on the cam...
Sort of sounds like an intake vacuum leak; if the MAP sensor on the back of the airbox gets unplugged (electrically or the vacuum hose is off) it...
If the bulbs are OK and the high beam "pass" button works, then most likely you have dirty contacts in the hi/lo rocker switch.
I would vote for replacing the seals in both the slave and the master. The slave cylinder might be scored or corroded, so pay attention to the...
