I had a 1997 VTR1000F that was a JDM, and that also had the 180 km/hr limited speed. Disabling the limiter was as easy as removing a single wire...
There is no stock Honda alarm system, so anything on there must be after-market.
It took one short ride on an MT-10 and I was hooked and had to buy one. The firing sequence is identical to all the VFRs with the 180 degree...
I believe the Japanese market was very tightly constrained in the past with tough licencing and machinery restrictions. It was a real challenge to...
11.8V even with revs is bad, you should be seeing 13.5-14.5V. I'd start at the 3-pin connector for the alternator on the left side below the seat,...
I sold my 1997 VTR1000F just a few months ago, to fund other acquisitions. [ATTACH]
I suspect even with a carb clean, it's still only going to run on two cylinders...
My VTR1000F had a noisy clutch at idle, so I whipped it out for a look-see. The only thing I found was the clutch damper springs were surprisingly...
That's a beauty Captain. Have you seen the resto that Aaron Colton has done? [MEDIA]
It would depend on how well you know your machine. I happily took my 1990 ST1100 at 110,000km for a 3500 km trip without any worry it would fail...
That is exactly what I used to do on my ST1100 (which I restored from a non-runner so go to know the joys of carb removal really well). Just...
Based on some of your photos, you are off to a solid start mate.
I suggested the day trip to Motegi to my non-motorcycling wife, expecting her to choose a day of shopping in Ginza but to my surprise she agreed....
Don't confuse volts and amps; just because your battery shows 13v when charged, does not mean it has enough current carrying capacity to spin the...
Don't over-think this. Get a voltmeter and put it across the battery with the bike running. If you are seeing 13.5 to 15.5 volts, you most likely...
I'm vaccinated and feeling a bit cooped up right now, some of that is our stay-home lockdown (3 weeks and counting) but I was regularly heading to...
It is not too hard to import vehicles here, there are plenty of ex-Japan machines floating around on the roads here. If you have valid paperwork...

Got the parts today...still don't have the bike (possibly end of next week). It will be interesting to compare the calculated revs from the...
Well, that would be one take on it. Personally I think the sudden lockdown was the only option available as the infection came out of the...
