Usually we try to find bikes from outside of the rust belt to bring here--not the other way around, hah. Actually you've simplified your life by...
I'll swap over the VF one to test that out--good call. I ordered a harness today on eBay as well that came off of a running bike since I think...
This battery is a brand new Motobatt AGM and cranks really strong when I bypass the ignition. The main 30A fuse isn't the one that's blowing--it's...
I printed off a wiring diagram and started racking my brain a bit on the ignition fuse blowing. Don't have that figured out yet, but I went for...
Whelp. Probably going to be some deep thinking time because I'm popping the ignition fuse the moment I press the starter button to try to get it...
Good news on the valves and cams. The cam lobes look great, and none of the valves were more than 0.001" out of tolerance. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
I didn't really document it, but the included instructions were easy to follow. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I find it highly coincidental that I'm wearing my Rice Owls sweatshirt while working on the bike now and reading your post. I think it's just...
JetsRUs has carb rebuild kits at $33/each which is a pretty penny. You're getting new float valve seats and needles with it though....

I think Captain shared that link with me a while back, so thank him, hah. Congratulations, you just completed the best quality of life...
I laughed out loud reading this. I'm trying to find something of similar 4.5mm outside diameter (looks to be 2mm ID--caliper can't quite measure...
The phrase you gave in Rogue's thread of "Carb Guru" helped me laugh through quite a bit of this. I suppose it is at least a little fun having...
Regarding the battery--It seemed like the terminals were in the wrong orientation to be able to work correctly on the VFR. I couldn't say with...
I like that you can flip the terminals around on that Motobatt battery--I may go with one of those this time around as opposed to Yuasa....
Just trying to get an idea of where I'm going to be cost-wise. Bold has already been purchased. I think I can actually use the existing intake...
Title is in jest. This is the 1986 VFR700 I posted a Craigslist ad I found here back in July. I bought it for $920. I’ve been trying to ignore...
