A VTR is my daily rider and I love it. I've been wanting to get a new bike for the last 3 years but nothing can pry me away from it. Poor girl,...
The last I talked to him BillyC didn't offer them and wasn't going to. I've been wanting to offer a VF500 kit similar to what he sells on eBay...
Titles are pretty easy to get, all it takes is about $150. There are many services available for this which work in all states, a simple Google...
I always laugh when I see this. I've found the "quick change" front end to actually take more time than the VF1000F design. This is because the...
Actually, the 85 VF1000 engines were all line bored. This is really a moot point because line boring is not an issue when it comes to any topic....
I'd like to see that. I've not heard of carbs "wearing out" like that before. It sounds like you are talking about the slides, maybe? If so,...
I run 20w50 in my 500's during the summer and 10w40 in the early or late portions of the season. Due to the lack of an oil cooler these engines...
Dude, absolutely certain that has nothing to do with the chain. It's on the wrong side of the engine for one thing. That's a significant...
The 500's seem to have come up a little in value over the past year or two. A nice shape bike used to go for about $800, now that same bike is...

Yeah, but they quit making them many years ago. I've been doing a lot of shock modifications for the early VF's lately, which is an indication as...
...or the entire petcock assembly. Don't ask me why/how, but sometimes you have to replace the whole thing. Luckily they are really cheap (less...
The jets aren't your problem. The key area(s) to clean are the passages inside the carb body, especially the idle circuit as those are the...
Sure, check out my site for details! If you have any questions feel free to shoot me an e-mail at jamie@daughertymotorsports.com .
All of them I've ever seen are a color I like to refer to as "rust".
I've got a set of stock mufflers that I would let go cheap. One is real nice and the other is starting to show some pin holes on the inside. The...
I didn't see this mentioned so I'll chime in late: the fairing on the bike in the first post looks just like a Lockhart-Phillips part. Those are...
Congrats! I've been looking for another R, but something requiring some work because 1) I'm not into 'stock' and 2) I'm cheap. Keep us up to...
