My VTR1000F had a noisy clutch at idle, so I whipped it out for a look-see. The only thing I found was the clutch damper springs were surprisingly...
That's a beauty Captain. Have you seen the resto that Aaron Colton has done? [MEDIA]
It would depend on how well you know your machine. I happily took my 1990 ST1100 at 110,000km for a 3500 km trip without any worry it would fail...
That is exactly what I used to do on my ST1100 (which I restored from a non-runner so go to know the joys of carb removal really well). Just...
Based on some of your photos, you are off to a solid start mate.
I suggested the day trip to Motegi to my non-motorcycling wife, expecting her to choose a day of shopping in Ginza but to my surprise she agreed....
Don't confuse volts and amps; just because your battery shows 13v when charged, does not mean it has enough current carrying capacity to spin the...
Don't over-think this. Get a voltmeter and put it across the battery with the bike running. If you are seeing 13.5 to 15.5 volts, you most likely...
I'm vaccinated and feeling a bit cooped up right now, some of that is our stay-home lockdown (3 weeks and counting) but I was regularly heading to...
It is not too hard to import vehicles here, there are plenty of ex-Japan machines floating around on the roads here. If you have valid paperwork...

Got the parts today...still don't have the bike (possibly end of next week). It will be interesting to compare the calculated revs from the...
Well, that would be one take on it. Personally I think the sudden lockdown was the only option available as the infection came out of the...
Doing some cyber-stalking today. The attachment sort of answers your question (or at least shows how the Italians do it). I put a cartridge into...
I decided to take a punt on this and ordered the sprocket cover, speedo drive, cable and cable gearbox at the speedo; not sure I need the latter...
Thanks for the encouraging reply. Back in the day I also had a super tall Fox shock and that caused no handling issues, as the VFR comes stock...
Thanks for the comments Captain. It is frustrating to not have the bike to hand to closely inspect! Blowing up the photos I can see lines that...
I have straightened VFR brake rotors and I did not subsequently explode and die. Actually my rotors went from perfectly pulse-free to horribly...
Hi Captain, we're in stay at home lock-down, my newly acquired 86 VFR750F is still sitting 800km away and I've got time on my hands. I have...
The stock spring length is given as 334mm in the service manual. The OD would be 37mm I believe.
