I just pulled off a 12 year old Michelin Pilot Road 3 from my VFR; actually was working quite nicely but I wasn't feeling that confident, and the...
That must be a real pain to have to keep replacing stators. I have only replaced a stator on my Silverwing scooter. That one had an oil-cooling...
The bolts may be Torx holding the ignition to the yoke. And they certainly will have threadlock on them. I think you can probably get into the...
As you can see from my Avatar (<---) I have some V4 history and owned a VF750F when it was basically new (and I was a lot younger!). I "had" to...
Damn...I forgot the HRC sticker. I'll get right on that.
Sure sounds like the Captain has nailed it. You've got an intermittent electrical supply fault and my money (if I had any) would be on the...
Apparently, when asked which is your favourite child, you are meant to pick one of your own... Grum makes some salient points...all of the...
I thought the Bridgestone BT45 or 46 were perfectly decent tyres in the stock sizes, and the 46 is a current generation so should be available...
Your brake lights are powered through fuse E, along the W/G wire to each switch, back through G/Y wire, passes through a single 3P plug (I presume...
The diagram is from the service manual, I don't have a 1200 but hope it helps. [ATTACH] If you want to use LED's you are best off installing an...
[ATTACH] Get some genuine parts from somewhere like Partzilla. I'd suggest replacing 14 and 6 on the diagram, those are the roller weights and...
The starter clutch has some heavy rollers that throw out and disengage when spun fast by the engine, but lock down and grip when driven by the...
Certainly sounds like you've checked the right things externally. Next step would be to remove the airbox and expose the throttle bodies; maybe...
Thanks for the feedback on the YSS Mike. My newly acquired ST1300 has 110,000km on the stock rear shock but suprisingly it still feels pretty...
I'd expect any 12v turn signal relay will work, so long as the plug connections match you should be good to go. I've certainly swapped out a...
I recently replaced the thermostat on my 99. Upon restarting with the manual starter valves open it was great and steady, once warm at normal idle...
Heat definitely causes a failing battery to get worse. I've had instances where the bike/battery was perfect when cold, but then struggled to...
Funnily enough I had exactly this problem with my indicators on my 5th gen recently. I had to put the stock bars back on and had the reservoir...
You can download the service manual from here:...
Have you checked the fuse? If the horn works then that is the same fuse as the brakes and turn signals. Running lights are on a separate fuse....
