My guess - and it is just that - is that given the cylinder vacuums are even according to my sychroniser, the valves and rings are probably...
Ummm...unless the wheel is positioned exactly right, won't the wing just as often be upside down (or at some other angle) and then pointing in...
Yes in your photo the enrichener is the plain brass tube upper most in the cluster of the three jets. On my ST1100 there is a narrow restriction...
Well firstly there are no differences in jets/emulsion tubes or needles in the carbs. Tink I'm sure you'd find your way around the carbs no...
Thanks guys. I have kept individual carb parts separate so I know I haven't switched any parts. Doesn't mean someone else may not have done so...
Yes the 5th gen uses the same morse code approach to fault codes. There are long blinks (1.3 sec) and short blinks (0.5 blinks). Just remember...
I think Knight is referring to checking that the cams are correctly set relative to the crank. You need to pull the cam covers off and check the...
Mike the video link doesn't work (says it is private) so I doubt you'll get any helpful responses.
Thanks Jeff; I'll have a beer in your honour this evening, and let you know how I get on.

Plugs 1 and 3 are the left front and left rear, plugs 2 and 4 are the right front and right rear. All were new, with maybe 150km of use. [IMG]...
Jeff plug photos attached, cylinders 1 - 4 l - r. James the boots all look good, I inspected them closely. Also the carbs balanced v easily...
The one thing that should make the idle high is the wax unit. Can you see whether the length of the unit is changing as it should from cold to...
Thanks Jeff I have taken the vacuum petcock out of the system before I started into the carbs, I had read that it can give grief. Given the need...
I'm not specifically familiar with the VF500, but my VTR1000 petcock has a vacuum shut-off so the fuel can't flow with the engine off. A small...
Rob are you suggesting that I might still have carb blockages? As I understand it I am probably getting the stumbles with 1/4 to 1/3 throttle,...
Thanks Jeff, the exterior is in great shape for a 1992 bike, gets better every time I wax it. There was the expected surface corrosion on some...
I've been working on my ST1100 carbs lately so have a little first hand knowledge here. I'd suggest the enrichener circuits might be clogged, on...
Well I did work my way through the various air circuits again yesterday and believe I have them all opened up clean now. I have reassembled the...
