I've though about doing that a few times, but I think my turbo Skoda car uses less fuel than the VFR! And the A/C and stereo system are superior....
Are you mixing up quarts with litres? The metric system is preferred the world over for good reason, maybe your oil bottles were 1 litre not 1...
Cracking photos Sir, thank you. Where's all the rainy photos??? The weather looked perfect!
49 for the lower and 23 N-m for the upper are the values specified in the 6th gen service manual which uses the same diameter forks. They're also...
Good grief SOW, you can't pan-fry salmon in engine oil and then wash it down with a RED wine. Has to be white, preferably a nice chardonnay.
^^yeah, what JD said. You need this part: 44808-MR7-013, should be less than $10. Just unbolt the speedo drive at the sprocket cover and pull...
The service manual shows the brake pad replacement being done with the caliper and wheel installed. You should push the caliper sideways (to the...
Loving the white wheels Bernie! What did you do to your seat? I'm thinking of modifying mine so I don't spend half my ride pushing back off the tank.

Water or coolant? I would have thought the radiator system should contain a glycol-based coolant with a dye (usually green or pink). If the...
I would definitely get the OEM pin spanner for the rear hub, because as stated above you need something slim to get in there. For the extension...
+1 on the oil filter. I have heard of (but never experienced first-hand) leaks from K&N branded oil filters that appear to be unrelated to bad...
Wow, I think you're over-thinking this one. I use the fast idle lever only when the engine is starting from cold and then wind it back to get a...
Yeah, I need to get out more...
Hi Cat Welcome aboard? Where in Middle Earth do you live? I'm in Auckland (where the Orcs come from). Cheers, Terry
The US (and maybe Canada?) VFR700/750's came with the three circular gauge cluster, the cool RWB colours, and no centrestand or pillion grab...
There's a number of parts that could wear (aside from the steering head bearing or the wheel bearing which are easily checked). If it is in the...
