No worries; if you need any actual measurements I have my modified forks hanging in the garage (I sold my VFR with the 600F4i/6G parts installed)....
Sorry Skimad but I disagree that the charring is due to serious current flows and indicative of other components in trouble. Actually IMO the...
Link for the service manual:...
VTR's don't have external compression adjustment, just the rebound adjuster needle which reaches from the fork cap down to the rebound valve....
If you can see the clutch plates moving a little then I doubt you need to bleed the line but it can't hurt. I'd suggest you simply have plates...
You could also put a jumper cable on from a car battery while the newer battery is in place; will quickly tell you if a lack of current is the issue.
I'm not aware that Honda made any changes to the brakes or fork externals on the 01 onwards; they did change the handlebars and the internal...
That's an interesting observation; I tend to agree that the small amount of run-out should not be a concern, actually it suggests to me that the...
I also own a VTR1000; the calipers are not awful, but I do feel that Honda used a poor combination of master and caliper pistons that made the...
[ATTACH] I sold my 1100 this year along with my 99 VFR, and bought the ST1300. I miss both but needed to rationalise things a bit. The 1300 is...
Thanks Cap'n, I also looked up the Racetech info. For reference, my 1990 ST1100 came with an odd mix of TRAC/damper rod in the left leg and a...
Hi All, my brother in law has a VF1000F2 that he has decided to refresh and possibly use for some casual track days. He has converted it into a...
Because I didn't read the manual I never bothered with sealant in those areas, and even greased the gasket so that if I needed to remove it again...
Bastard! Looks like a really envious collection, mate. Especially the NS400. Look after them for the rest of us.:)
I'm going to sound like a grumpy old man here but there is nothing mysterious about the linked brake system. The front lever works the front...
The list looks good (plus the OIL) and don't bother with 17 or 9, they're metal parts.
VF750C I think; should be mechanically the same as the VF750S. https://www.partzilla.com/catalog/honda/motorcycle/1982/vf750c-a-v45-magna
Does your bike have the HISS security system? If so you need one "programmed" key to enable subsequent replacement keys to be accepted by the ECU....
You will need a long-reach 6mm hex bit (for the bottom bolt) and a couple of 14mm spanners (for the damper rod locknuts) plus a large...
Sounds like you are headed in the right direction; if the engine is turning over then the valve timing can't be too messed up. Have you checked to...
