In my own experience, my 99 5th gen is very prone to stalling if the idle speed drops too low. If you didn't already know, the idle adjuster screw...
The only Torx fitting on the 5G is a T40 holding the ignition switch to the triple; not something you're likely to want to remove on the road....
I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest the fasteners will be the same size as a 5th gen. 19mm for the back wheel nuts, 22mm for the front,...
Hi Ruffing Code 19 is a pulse generator fault and you are right, according to the manual it should not run. FI faults remain in a memory until...
Well put Mohawk. I re-read my owners manual and it states to check the coolant level at normal operating temps, and fill the reservoir to the...
If it was mine I would replace the thermostat and radiator cap before I would sell. Have they been replaced? There's not much else that would...
Well if you started at the low level and added 1/2 a beer can full of coolant, that is the level it should rise to at normal operating temps....

I must be Old Skool then. I prefer the carbs on my ST or especially my VTR1000, over my 5th gen. The FI just seems snatchier than the carbs....
Today is New Tyre Day! Getting some Metzeler Roadtec 01's mounted to replace the Z8s that were on there. Looking forward to riding on some fresh...
Did you follow good compression test practice? Never done it myself, but as I understand it, you need to have the throttle wide open, cold engine,...
I embarrassed myself last week when I decided to change brake and clutch fluids on my 3 Hondas, and found that the VFR clutch had lots of black...
Welcome Budo I also ride a 5th gen (99) and have had it for a couple of years. My one has been great under my ownership, and about the only...
This does sound like another ground block problem. The ground block connects lots of earth wires together, on the 5th gen it is an orange plastic...
That's kind of a sweeping statement Jose. I have a a Cyclops LED bulb in my VTR1000, and it works great! Light output is many times better than...
