You need to use your teeny tiny hands and reach in there, rotate the bulb holder counterclockwise and pull that and the bulb out for a look-see....
My experience is not with the VFR but my VTR1000F. At 70,000km I installed manual CCTs and after installation I checked the timing and it was...
The firing order is shown at the start of the manual. If you start at TDC#4 there are 90 degrees to #1 then 180 degrees to #3 so 270 degrees in...
Still not impossible to do with the camcover on as long as you can figure out when the front cylinders are at TDC on compression. If you leave one...
When you are cruising with good airflow, the engine temp is dictated by the opening temp of the thermostat, which is right around 76-78C. When you...

No clue here sorry. But my guess is that it is a piece that is used to secure the fairing or tank that has been dropped into the engine V during...

I was very happy with th Delkevic stainless tri-oval that I had on my 5th gen; well made, not too loud and fitted perfectly including the...
In my case it was the big red connector that feeds power up and back to the right switchblock and ignition switch.

Did you have to hit 88 mph at some point?
This is the VTR1000F arrangement. If you were to flip the arm on the shift shaft to 12 O'clock and add an extension over the back of the peg for...
