You make a good point about trusting the dealer (or not). I needed one more shim yesterday so I visited the dealer and they didn't have a full...
Quite right MD. I worked up the courage to tackle the valves on my 5th gen last night, no known service history and 84000km currently. Happy to...
You might have to buy the whole forks. I did that yesterday, one was a bit bent but the innards were straight. You can also use bits from a...
Put the bike in gear on the CS. Get a piece of string about twice the length of the bike. Tie the middle of the string around the tyre and rim at...
Good suggestion; I'd also add a bit of grease on the end of the rod. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Zaumer are you getting any FI warning light action? Your symptoms almost sounds like when you are re-starting, the FI is missing an expected input...
Thanks Jason, I might just give that a go. Your bike is beautiful by the way, I had a 750 like that back in the day. Honda were really on top of...
That's very creative; my one gripe about my 5th gen is just the same, the two spline positions are not right for me, somewhere in between would be...

Food for thought???
The thermostat holds the temps nicely at 77-82C when I'm moving so it works great. I think there might be a drippy injector as the oil level...
No the brakes are great; I've been through these and cleaned the seals and lubed the sliding pins, and with EBC HH pads they are just brilliant,...
Maybe you should send Staintune an email and ask them? sales@staintune.com.au
I might have to look into that; but intuitively I can't see why a blocked filter would affect economy as this is would only reduce fuel flow to...
50000 miles is just run in! I'd be surprised if you have any issues within the crankcases that would need attention. It would appear that the...
I always wear disposable foam plugs on any ride. I used to get ringing ears without them. I work in a noisy industry so hearing protection is the...
The only thing that I would check is the fork spacing side to side in the clamps; I think I've read somewhere that the wheels/discs etc are...
The 767mm that I measured was with the wheel lifted off the ground, but wheel brakes etc installed. I did not include the fork cap in the...
