The Laser systems are totally NOT for performance, in fact quite the opposite. I'm not buying a bender because they start at $10k. Instead I'm...
Nope, not even close. Sorry, you are totally out of luck with exhausts. The most popular 4-1 by far was made by Hindle. They were private...
The fuel line with the T should be on the left side of the carb bank as you are sitting on the bike. It sounds like you have it in the wrong...
Wow, those dudes at Valvoline are way ahead of us. We're busy running around with 4 strokes and they already have a 5 stroke oil. Sorry, I...
Sorry man, you are hosed. The last things to dry up were the slip-ons. That's ok because those typically cause a hp or two decrease in power...
Those are no good unless you ride a Hardley Makeitson. Pretty much it would require removal of the bodywork each time and eventually it would...
Your fuel leaking from the vent tubes is most likely due to one (or more!) of the floats sticking open. It sounds like a full carb cleaning is in...
I'm interested in that shock. Please PM me with what you are asking. Thanks!
I think it was a CYA kind of thing. The pumps don't really put out much pressure, just a couple of psi. The entire tank is above the carbs so...
Nope, not even close. The 700's, 750's and 1000's chassis' are very similar, enough that the engines will interchange. The 500's are physically...
Actually, only a few early 84's had bottom end problems. By far the biggest issue with the 500's is dropped valves. The problem is due to valve...
I have a better solution: run without one. I convert all of my VF's to gravity feed. I've been left stranded because of pump and/or relay...
ATF is approximately 7.5w - FYI
Let me know when you are ready because I can get you a good deal. $140 + shipping.
Sorry Wal, I just couldn't resist. I wondered if you were going to catch that. I hope your last post was a typo. The forks on the older VF's...
Nope, not even close. Not only is the length way to short, but the lower clevis is not the correct size (too narrow). The reservoir also causes...
I got to hear one run yesterday. It sounded like it wanted to bite someone's head off. I loved it! My best friend is getting one so maybe I'll...
Awesome! I love hearing from another lower of the early VF's! Maybe you'll find another one, that seems like the common trend. Get one - sell...
Wal, you know I love you man, but don't forget that the VF500's are a lot different than your 86 VFR700. Neither F2 nor F3 forks will be an easy...
I've done a lot of work in this area and can say that F2 forks are no better than your stock forks. Unless they are 94's they are still damping...
