No fog around here today! Here's a couple of minutes of twisty roads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63DMixgS_SQ&feature=youtu.be
Too true.
Here's a little video clip I made this morning, showing my forks hard at work! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63DMixgS_SQ&feature=youtu.be
I have spent too much time thinking about the way the cartridge works. Whoever devised these did a great job as in principle the rebound and...
I agree about the recommended settings from folk like Race Tech and Daugherty being close to spot-on. I've tried compression and rebound damping...
Well I tend to use Motul 5W because that is what my local shop stocks, but Oz is absolutely correct, the W viscosity rating seems to have little...
Well maybe that is good news that you no longer have a fault code showing, I presume that means that you can rule out a sensor as a fault. So if...
Sounds like you uttered "Garage Words", Oz. We've all been there. I do use a trace of Loctite blue (add a drop, lightly wipe threads to take off...
Thanks Oz. Not too different to me (85kg) I guess: 0.90 kg/mm springs 120 mm oil height 5W Motul (18 cP) Compression: DMr valve body, C33 stack...
My quick check for the thermostat function is to start the bike from cold and keep touching the radiator. If the tstat is doing its thing, it...
The engine coolant temperature sensor is plugged into the back of the front head down low in the v, left hand side. At 80C the resistance should...
Care to share your cartridge set-up Oz-man? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The bike sounds like it comes with some good extra bits. VFR's are in general very mechanically reliable. The 6th gen's occasionally have cam...
OK I was close but not exact. From the service manual: 1 Turn ignition off 2. Install the jumper wire 3. Turn ignition on 4. Pull the jumper out...
There's a small black 2 pin female connector at the left rear on the standard loom. You stick a wire across the contacts and( from memory) turn...
I had something similar when I forgot to reconnect either the MAP sensor or it's hose. The bike started right up and idled OK, but ran ragged when...
The SH lowers are very easy, the hardest bit is making up brackets so you can reuse the 5G fender, the rest is bolt-on. I already had SH lowers as...
I've read that the F4 forks are 10mm longer than the F4i. They certainly have different part numbers.
I believe F4 (not F4i) forks are basically the same length as the 5G. I'm a little tempted to do this myself. I just bought some 6G bars for $1!...
Separate names with a comma.
