Thanks! That price is for both forks. No, you do not need the F2 rotors. You can mount your VF rotors to the CBRF2 wheel as long as you have...
Hummm, that is an interesting one. It's certainly louder than the typical VF500 tick. You might be right on the cam chain, but I'd still check...
That's a good plan! Keep us up to date on the progress with your bike.
Well, here's what I suggest you do: pull the cam covers and check all of the valve clearances. You are not looking for one that is a little bit...
Sure, all of the parts to service the forks are still available from Honda. The rear shock cannot be serviced, these are junk so it would be...
Ok, so not at idle... when does it start making noise? Can you be more specific as to the nature of the sound? We can't be there to listen to it...
Are you asking about the shock or the forks? The forks can still be fully serviced but not the shock. There really isn't a way to check the...
How bad? Is it a tapping or a clicking? Does it go away above a certain rpm? These might seem like weird questions, but it's helpful to know...
Yeah, there is a good reason: cost. The triples you mention would be really expensive. Besides the Teflon impregnated hardcoat anodizing I have...
My preferred source is Shadbolt in Canada, but there are also several places in the US that do this work. Megacycle, Webcams, DRP, just to name a...
Here's one that I started about a year ago but only recently finished up. After doing many RaceTech Gold Valve Emulator conversions I wanted to...
The vent is inside the plastic cap with the slots. You stuff rags into the opening of the tank, where the gas is, to keep the garbage from...
That shift drum is a bastard to work with. It's been a while since I did this, I'll have to look at one of my spare engines to see if I can tell....
There are several brands that still make tires for the stock wheels. I don't use the stock wheels on any of my VF's anymore, but if you let us...
That's a pretty good price, I'd go for it! Once again, so called 'motorcycle techs' showing there incompetence...
This is a really common problem with the early VF's. Go to my site and click on the 'Rear Shock Solution' for info on what I've done to adapt...
It is best to put NO air in the forks. Air just makes things worse. If you have trouble with bottoming you should add more fluid. On that note,...
Yeah, that looks like it would shake like a mo-fo. You never know, looks could be decieving, let us know when you get some footage!
Pretty much any 500 is going to be gutless. They are just a little motor after all! As mentioned, the 500 twins are going to have a little more...
+1 for this being a possibility. It could also be the tank valve (you know, the ON-OFF-RES switch). Those are cheap to replace, like $10, so...
