The VFR uses sliding calipers that need to be able to move freely on the sliding pins in order for all the braking force to be generated. At the...
Wasn't expecting any sympathy Glenn. I get to ride year round! This was my rest stop yesterday. [IMG]
I have three bikes in my stable, and each has it's outstanding points, but none of them is perfect. I love the riding position, tank range,...
I think the tip-over sensor cut-out would only work if the ignition was on when it tipped over. This is designed to latch out, until the ignition...
Wow, sounds like my day yesterday. I left my company car at home and did a customer visit for work on my ST1100 yesterday, which based on one...
Quite right Gavin, everyone needs a copy of the manual for their bike. I found this one...

I gave up supporting my local Honda parts supplier; the guys who work there are great, but the support from the importer (Blue Wing Honda) is...
That high idle when you release the clutch has to be an unintended air leak through the flapper solenoid. Make sure the hose is blocked properly.
Good luck with this. If the starter solenoid isn't getting power then you need to check the kill switch and starter button, the neutral switch and...
Glad to say my 99 model has NO wax unit; if I don't like the fast idle, I can adjust a lever on the bars! The idle speed is controlled by air...
I've got Hot Grips on two of my bikes, the VFR install has never given any problems, but I had an intermittent fault on my ST1100. On...
It's been a few decades since I owned a VFR700, but I recall there was a charcoal canister for gas tank vapors, as well as a PAIR system on these....
