Are you planning on finishing off the inside of the top fairing in black? IIRC that is how they are in stock trim. I'm very envious of your...
I don't know the specific answer to that, but I do know that the two types of 5G mirrors are interchangeable. so if you don't like the condom...
Slider pins should be lubed with silicone grease. These are the most critical parts to keep moving freely with this design of caliper. I would not...
I have a different perspective on this; I lowsided my red 99 two years ago, and rashed up the nose, right side and the tail. I took a punt on some...
I recently fitted an 8-spoke wheel to my 5G and (just as expected) it made zero difference to the handling. The 8-spoke is identical in all...
Checking the service manual, the outer disc is meant to be installed in the "shallow slot on the clutch outer". Found the same on my VTR1000 when...
A CBR600F4i can be used as the basis for a modified shock to suit the 6G, it has adjustable compression and rebound damping, plus preload...

You can try adding some commercially available fuel system cleaner to the fuel tank; you may just get lucky. The problem is the jets that are...

I've got LED's in my 5G VFR, VTR and ST. As a general rule, it is MUCH easier to take the top fairing off, to do this: while it is technically...
My guess (and it is just that) is that your clutch is perfectly fine but the slave piston is a bit sticky, so the first few times you release it,...
Yes just what Allyance says. Fork seals in my experience don't start leaking for no reason. Take a good close look at the fork tube and you may...
I'll take a stab and say that Randy's issue is caused by the wax unit being both clogged (hoses and/or the unit) and misadjusted on the starter...
Lint, sorry to hear about your tumble. Sounds like an opportunity for some upgrades now. Well done to you two guys who helped him out also. I'll...
Congratulations Jose!
