David, you should check out the carb installation procedure I have outlined on my site. I think you'll find that, although you are on the right...
Not really, the models for the VF's start at around $475. They are tons better than a Hagon or Bitubo and only $100 more expensive. Too bad they...
Your jets aren't what you should be concerned with, from the sound of your issues it's the pilot circuit that is causing you trouble. Did you...
FYI - The VF1000R is simply that, a 'VF1000R'. It's not a 'VFR' or 'Interceptor'. I'm really anal about those kinds of things so I just HAD to...
No, they do not go to a charcoal canister. They go from the carbs to the ground. I'm not just repeating what you said, that is really what they...
Yes, the Hyperpros are really nice. I've been recommending them for years. Unfortunately they are in the process of discontinuing them for the...
You are just measuring the position of the floats in mm, so any metric ruler will do. I use a small metal machinist's scale but anything will do...
Don't be afraid, the kits come with instructions that include baseline settings. I've found that the Factory Pro kits only need one adjustment,...
You'll find that's typical for the older VF's, you to call/e-mail them to check on availability.
Actually I've found that slip-ons DO require rejetting. They mess up the flow so much that it takes some adjustments to get the power back to...
See my post above - Race Tech and Sonic Springs both offer springs for the VF series. Both companies have a quality product too....
A little fuel left in the tank is normal. There will always be some sloshing around in there. How do you know that it's a gallon? A small...
Sure, I've been modifying a lot of shocks. I've got them backed up like crazy right now and have spent the last week trying to dig myself out....
I do not like the Progressive springs on the older VF's. They are basically the worst of both worlds. The best option is a straight rate spring....
The K&N's are just reboxed Dynojet kits, they look the same because they ARE the same. K&N has been liquidating the old kits for a couple of...
I'm not sure if 'expensive' is your biggest problem, 'available' might be though. It's been a while since I checked, let me know if you run into...
Wow, what a great looking bike. What a find! I'm glad to see that you've brought it back to glory.
It's not a bad idea to check the screen in the float seat. What I'd suggest is that you remove the idle needle assembly again on that carb and...
You meant VF1000R, right? There is no such thing as a VFR1000. You are correct, the 500's far out number the other models. The 500's sold in...
I would not run the Progressive springs. They compound the shortcomings of the damping rod forks - they are the worst of both worlds. I've found...
